I have called and confirmed that this case for the Spencer hearing has been moved to January 3rd. As I mentioned upthread, they are REQUIRED to have within 30 days, or the death penalty option goes POOF, and he MUST get life if they don't meet the requirement. (I posted statute previously which stated such)
Therefore, I guess they are realizing, and stated to me on the phone such, that in case something happens to delay, they don't want to schedule on the 30th day from judge's death sentence ( as it was with the original date that they had set.)
January 3rd 8:30 is confirmed by my calling State Attorney offices and being transferred to homicide person Er*n Le* as to the Spencer hearing.
Great catch LegallyBland, media may pick up soon but you are #1!
I hope folks don't miss out as to not checking thread until the original date.
I hate that her family has to interrupt their lives so much for all of this. SMH

Thanks SeeSeas
The downside of all of this is what we discuss often on threads, the family has so many "extra" hearings to attend, if they choose, when death penalty happens. For a very long time. And this is just the start. Two dates now for them to come to, if they choose to do such. I wish the judge would possibly just do it all on the 3rd.

JMO, but I think they are ok with all of the hearings. They received justice last week!
Can't they send representatives, letters, or emails? I'm sure they don't mind showing up to remind him, "No, Mark. You did NOT get away with it!" And a few other choice statements. This demon has inflicted an eternity of pain and anguish on this wonderful close-knit family. May Justice be relentless.

I just can't imagine being in their shoes and what I would do.
At some time, I would think I would want to just think/say (In my best Mr. Wonderful tone from Shark Tank when he is fed up and who he deems inconsequential saying he'll never think of them again).....
"Mark, you are dead to me"
I mentioned up thread about MS being a monster for "suggesting" anyone walking out of the office building with Teresa would be "collateral damage. For this reason alone...the willingness to kill anyone who happened to even be in the area or run to her assistance..OMG...a monster!! (Isn't that what a terrorist does? He kills innocent people and writes them off/discards the precious lives of others as collateral damage.) My friend was killed (almost 40 years ago) by a recently released convict who received his "marching orders" from another man he spent time with in prison. My friend and his co-worker (another young, precious and beautiful person) were "just collateral damage."
I am hoping MS will get DP (whether or not he is ever executed) because he will be kept away from prison "short timers." Obviously MS has no problem "affiliating with" and manipulating ex-cons into doing his bidding.... that makes him very dangerous in a "general population" environment, in my opinion. I think/feel MS was the one who requested Cww "get roughed-up" before he testified in court. Florida, after the attack, was very smart to isolate Cww until the trial.
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE MS'S ABILITY TO MANIPULATE OTHERS

OMG! What a bunch of coddled entitled babies! The rules and care of that environment, sound better than what most elderly disabled veterans receive in long term care at the VA hospital! Think about that.
Thats Connecticut.. not Florida. Not quite the same... Florida prisons can get nasty... no AC and HOT. In addition, lot of old country rednecks in some of these prisons that don't put up with Pansy boys like Mark.

Death Row -- Florida Department of Corrections
Not quite as "coddled", but still have many more rights than their victims had. But, true, death penalty in Connecticut looks like a much better deal.
