I really, really hope he doesn't get out. I can't imagine that he wouldn't run. You'd have to be stupid not to, in his situation, but then again, you had to be stupid and crazy to do what he did in the first place.
Because he didn't do it... yet. He's presumed innocent. It's not a matter of whether or not he will re-offend while he's out - that's not a consideration.Bobbisangel said:How can a person like him get any kind of bail after the horrendes thing that he did? It shouldn't matter whether they think he might re-offend while he is out or not. Our judicial system really needs revamped.
What do you think of the chances of this being allowed??lostfaith said:http://www.wbay.com/Global/story.asp?S=4501761
CHILTON, Wis. The state attorney prosecuting homicide charges against Steven Avery says he'll ask that the defendant's criminal history be allowed at the trial.
Calumet County District Attorney Ken Kratz tells The Post-Crescent of Appleton that he'll file motions as early as next week asking that Avery's past be included at his homicide trial this fall.
Avery is accused of killing 25-year-old freelance photographer Teresa Halbach and burning her body.
Kratz is prosecuting the case for Manitowoc County. He wants to include comments Avery made to fellow prisoners stemming from a 1985 conviction for forcing the wife of a sheriff's deputy off the road and pointing a rifle at her.
