GUILTY TX - Moriah Wilson, 25, Cyclist Fatally Shot Before Race, Austin, 2022 *arrest* #9

[Megnut]

I wish I understood jury sentencing.

Is it fixed based on their finding of guilt?

No plus or minus?

Are there lesser charges available to them? Murder 2? Manslaughter?

I've personally never heard of a jury being reseated months later so will a sentence follow the verdict?

I don't see anything less than LWOP.

I know everyone is eagerly waiting and wondering what's going on. Don't worry, the proceedings have not begun yet. Jury is not in the courtroom. Attorney teams are each taking turns visiting with the judge.

Jury has entered the courtroom. Before entering, the bailiffs put documents that includes Armstrong's charge on their seats. The judge will now explain the contents of that document so the jury understands what it is they are deliberating.

The Judge is reading through the multiple-page document. Each jury member is reading along from their own document in front of them. Judge reminds the jury that a defendant is to be presumed innocent unless found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

I don't know why I jump on early......it's always a waiting game. I know it and I still do it every single time.

Me too. And when the audio starts and I'm doing something else I'll jump out of my seat.

Looking forward to hearing this close.

I get chills every time I hear the audio recording of the shooting. I can't imagine what the Wilson family feels.

"She's not just running from the Sheriff's department.. She's running from you.. And you.. And you.."

As he shows the attempted escape video and points at the jury during closing arguments.

Wow

 

[BeachSky]

Omg he showed a closeup of the chest shot
just for a second..

 

[jash]

I wonder who the two witnesses are that the state decided not to call. (At the start of his statement, Rickey Jones said he told the jury there would be 40 witnesses, and they had 38.) CA and ??

 

[SteveP]

The prosecutor is swinging for the fences, and he is well on his way to hitting a grand slam!

Is that what that was? I thought it was the floor.

I noticed Mo's brother walked past the camera after that so maybe the family was waiting outside until that part was over.

Haha the mountain analogy. "Never seen so much evidence against a person in my life." (Rickey Jones)

You could be right. I thought it was bare sternum with black hole…
