.... As a side note, I think the defense's goal was to keep her from getting the DP, but really did NOT want her to be found not guilty. Thus, the apathetic defense, and the weird (and totally unbuyable) sentencing argument that she was all about love that she needed to show others. Knowing what they knew (and what we have seen), would you want her ever set free on the streets to do her thing to you and the ones you love?
2 SHE STILL MIGHT GET THE DEATH PENALTY. About her getting away with multiple ghastly murders without getting the DP, it's not over yet. There is still hope. The exact charges in AZ have yet to be clarified, but because she was involved in a murder, for money, and one in which all the other witnesses to her actions were made dead (which have been proven, since she was convicted), I think it's possible they will go for DP there given the extreme depravity of her deeds -- with a good chance to get it.
CHAD: About his upcoming trial and potential sentencing --
HE IS STILL FACING THE DEATH PENALTY. AND HE SHOULD GET IT. While it hasn't been explicitly stated, his ID charges were set to be DP cases, and even though his trial was delayed, nothing happened to drop the DP aspect. Since he's still going on trial for killing 3 people, basically for money, sex, and power, I think a good likelihood he does get DP for each. It is the same set of facts, the same ghastly crimes planned and done to innocent people, the same depravity in pursuit of sex, money, and power.
