Does Mark still get to wear a suit for the Penalty Phase? I don't think so, but I'm not sure.
Bet he has enjoyed getting to wear suits and ties and pretend to be an attorney allowed to join sidebars. Now, it's no, no, don't take away my suits and my water cup!
My husband had 2 friends from out of town visiting us here. I was sneaking into the bedroom to take quick looks at the thread, through their very looooooooong visit.You're all my people here.
Nobody else in my life can understand why I'm so relieved
and happy tonight. You all know why.
I'm pretty sure it's jumpsuits all the time now for old Mark! And Spam.
You are right. I forgot they could have chosen 2nd degree. And it was fast. Wow! Jury has a hard job in front of them.I am not sure. CWW plead to 2nd degree murder so death is off the table. JRR convicted of 2nd degree so no death. MS hatched the plan and asked CWW to do the deed-- jury could have convicted for 2nd degree but choose 1st degree. They returned their verdict pretty fast. I guess we will see. But, I do hope that MS never walks the streets again.
I agree....but they are surrounded by love--their grandmother and aunt must adore them. They will need a lot of support.My heart is so broken for their poor girls. Oh my goodness this entire thing is so awful. If he wasn’t found guilty, Teresa’s family would be without justice. If he was, the girls officially lose both parents. Lose lose imo. So sad all around.
I hope that whatever will give those girls greater peace will prevail. After we just saw a jury in FL not put a man to death for killing a former girlfriend and three children, one of whom was his own son---if that didn't warrant the death penalty, what will? It seems so arbitrary. The jury really must be emotionally spent --I am glad that they are going to have a break before making their decision and I will respect whatever they decide.I'm fine with him getting LWOP. How about others here?
Let him languish in prison in general population
with other common disgusting murderers for the
next 40+ yrs. Let him sink into oblivion.
I'll be surprised if he gets the DP.
Life in prison without parole is actually cheaper than the death penalty, it's said.
Plus it may be easier on the daughters to not have him facing the death penalty for years and it being an issue. That's where my thoughts and my concern are tonight, on the daughters and Teresa's family.
I'm in tears...what a wonderful verdict and justice for Teresa's family.

My Kindle is not responding properly. I think I'm having "connectivity" issues. I was watching Court TV on a big screen tonight (12/04/19), up close. I saw Mark's eyes well up, slightly, as if he had an eye irritation--but not enough to let a tear roll down. I never actually saw him cry. What I did see was Mark blow his nose, and he did it so hard that I actually saw what appeared to be ram's horns coming up from under the skin of his forehead. I couldn't believe my eyes! I thought it might be some special effects by Court TV, just to be funny, but it wasn't. This "inflammation" was in sync with the blowing of his nose. It was a pretty close-up shot. If I can capture it, I will surely share it. It was remarkable and incredible, at the same time.
Well, maybe not that incredible!
Jury's Emotional Moment
I think the emotional moment the jury had was for Teresa and her family--finally getting Justice, after all these years--not for the demon who orchestrated her horrific murder. They saw the pictures. They felt the family's agony. They heard the evidence. Hence, the unanimous vote.
Thank you, jury. Thank you, foreperson. Thank you, 2x2 Magic Notes.
Usually takes 15-18 yrs to complete all DP appeals and actually be put to death. Maybe some sick FL state of Fl corrections employee can schedule CWW release same day as MS execution
