"That defies common sense. This was not a crime that was committed for no reason," Ross said.

It wouldn't make sense for Wright and Rodgers to drive to Florida and take nothing from the home and kill Teresa for no reason, Ross said.

It was a murder for hire, Ross said.

Snipped and BBM: OH NO !

I was hoping we would have a Verdict at least by tomorrow.

They will start deliberating today.... After Ross speaks and jury instructions are read then they will head to lunch and begin deliberating for an hour or so....

   Over the last few days, we've also seen a number of past jurors from the Jimmy Rodgers trial. #trialtweets #MarkSieversontrial #TeresaSievers #NBC2CourtCoverage

   Also in the courtroom for closings, lots of family and friends of Dr. Teresa Sievers who've been here throughout. There's also a number of people sitting on the defense side of the gallery. Mark Sievers step-mother is here as well. #trialtweets #MarkSieversontrial #TeresaSievers

The payment was supposed to come three months after Teresa Sievers' death when the life insurance money came in.

"Common sense, ladies and gentleman, is one of the most important items you get to take with you to the jury room," Ross said.

State making the argument that a first degree murder conviction for Mark Sievers is common sense. "There is so much you don't get to take with you into the jury room, but you do get to take common sense." #SieversTrial @winknews

Also just so you're up to speed, should the verdict be guilty of first degree murder, penalty phase could come as quickly as next week per the judge earlier today. #trialtweets #MarkSieversontrial #TeresaSievers #NBC2CourtCoverage

Ross tells the jurors to use their own judgement regarding credibility of witnesses they've heard from.

  "Certainly in this case, the picture is absolutely clear," Ross said.

  The agreement says Wright is subject to a polygraph test up to the day he is sentencing.

The coveralls provide the explanation for how the murder was committed without evidence being left behind, Ross said.

When jurors look at the hard evidence, including the phone records, they will reach the conclusion Mark Sievers is guilty for the premeditated murder of Teresa Sievers and guilty of conspiracy, Ross said.

State wrapped up rebuttal, closing arguments are done. Judge Kyle now reading jury instructions before deliberations begin. #SieversTrial @winknews

That's all from the state as far as closing arguments.

Jurors are now being read jury instructions.

Jaclyn Bevis‏ @jbevis10 42s43 seconds ago


State done with closing. The judge is now reviewing jury instructions with the jury. The instructions include lesser included crimes, including manslaughter. #trialtweets #MarkSieversontrial #TeresaSievers #NBC2CourtCoverage

 

[lonetraveler]

I've been trying to accomplish something today, like paying bills, laundry, cleaning so I may have missed this, why is the court closed for two days?

 

[Oregonmama]

It would be totally cool if they a reach verdict tonight if they decide to stay late!

 

[Oregonmama]

Jaclyn Bevis‏ @jbevis10 52s53 seconds ago


The jury will be back and begin deliberation before 3 p.m. I'd guess. (I'm guessing Judge Kyle planned for lunch for them. Hopefully that comes soon.) #trialtweets #MarkSieversontrial #TeresaSievers #NBC2CourtCoverage

The jury can find Mark Sievers guilty of first-degree murder, second-degree murder, manslaughter or not guilty @winknews

Or in an hour!

Also in the courtroom for closings have been several members of the state attorney's office and detectives and employees at the Lee County Sheriff's Office. #trialtweets #MarkSieversontrial #TeresaSievers #NBC2CourtCoverage

JMO, I think we will have a verdict by 6 EST time tonight... If they start at 3 , that will give them 3 hours.....

 

[Kakidoll]

Fighting a migraine and couldn't watch but I listened in the dark. Wanted to watch mark but just listening, I feel much better about a conviction. State pulled it together but I don't know if they will do 1st. Conspiracy yes. Some people cannot understand the principle law. They want a weapon in hand. But I'll be ok with 2nd and consp. I'd prefer and would vote 1st. Myself because of premed. No doubt.
