Your welcome JLZ, from memory I think one was an Acting Deputy Director for a time ...

Same name but different barrister I'm sure, there's also a judge by the same name in Brisbane ... highly confusing that can be

This is sounding even more tragic, I don't think I want to know what was going on in that house. One person murdered, possible assault of a child, other housemates and no one heard a thing????

nope, i'm sure that a life sentence for murder in qld is a mandatory sentence, no ifs or buts, 15 years minimum and the defence can't come along with submissions arguing for a lower sentence, therefore they always sentence straight after a verdict comes down, it can be extended for a time longer...

:happydance: the only verdict they could come up with

sometimes I wonder, but yes it's legal all the way here still feeling sick and tying to work :scared:

The water cooler talk in my office this morning has the jury finding him guilty, no one has said the word acquittal and since there are a few capes and wigs hanging around in my office, i hold those opinions in pretty high regard I still feel sick though :(

that's how I feel Stella

A guilty verdict would be good :jail: But the longer this jury stays out and is undecided, the more i feel that slipping away I'm afraid

my day in the office is almost done, time to escape!! Thanks everyone for the updates and the giggles during a very long day :seeya:

:blushing::giggle:

i just worry the longer they take to come back with a verdict might mean they are having difficulties agreeing on a verdict???? in a lot of instances a jury that comes back relatively quickly is an indicator of a guilty verdict

Make it a double please

Squizzey, where are you with the Rum and Ciggies???? :gaah:

now there is someone who I bet can almost taste that beer he's got coming, him and quite a few other members of our police service :cheers:
