It will take the jury some time IMO to go through, not just the evidence, but the charges, much there to consider.
Betting the initial straw poll on endangerment will unanimous but they still have to walk through it. State did a good job working through it point by point.
Straw poll on 'some degree of murder' probably unanimous too. State did a good job setting up CG's motive amd patterns, his lack of attention. No urgency, no 911. The text messages and internet searches. Flight.
It'll come down to intention IMO. Did CG MEAN to kill him? Did he think his actions COULD kill him?
He certainly SHOULD HAVE known that a child is small, his organs are vulnerable, 6 year olds aren't built to withstand tremendous force.
Ironic in a sad way. I wonder if Corey still used a car/booster seat. I wonder if CG automatically, as a matter of course, had Corey sit in the backseat, boostered. Not because he (CG) was consciously concerned for Corey's safety, more that it's just what you do. Just sad because all those steps are designed to protect children from impact, because their bodies will be CRUSHED by front seat airbags.
The airbag who crushed Corey was his own father. Didn't mean to, maybe. But he did. Serious internal damage, fatal internal damage.
Paramedics response time? Probably minutes. Could Corey have survived? Immediate intervention? emergency surgeries?
We'll never know. No 911. Because CG probably first had to eat some McDonald's, make plans with Marci, undress Corey and throw away his clothes, take a selfie, flirt, talk to mommy, eventually drive to the hospital but even there, sound no alarm.
Yeah, CG, all that doctoring Corey received the night before, from his concerned mom, that's all irrelevant today. Corey's NEW symptoms only started AFTER receiving severe chest and abdominal impact injuries. THAT'S the information the medical professionals needed, not that he was fine YESTERDAY.
CG failed at fatherhood in every way imaginable.
