Sorry if this has already been asked. Not had access to a computer recently. I had a sudden thought regarding the appeal on lying. If this Caylees' law goes through and there is a retrial, would this mean there is a possibility this will be enforced if she is proven Guilty a second time and this could cut off her nose to spite her face ? ie she may do more time for this? Thank you
No. First of all, any retrial would only be on the lying convictions. Second, she cannot be retried for anything relating to Caylee's disappearance/murder due to the double jeopardy rule. Third, the law cannot apply retroactively to acts committed before the law took effect.
I may have missed this if it was asked. Was it legal for jb to transport letters between fca and ca? It could not be proven that it happened, but we know it did.
No. It was not legal.
