Anyone remember the case of Simon Gittany (in NSW)? It took the judge 4½ HOURS to read the verdict.
We were all waiting for 4½ hours to hear the verdict at the end of those hours. (Verdict not sentencing)

I wonder how much legal justification has to be given for the sentencing in this case.

Exactly. The Yanks don't get much right but they get sentencing right and If Patterson was sentenced in the US, she'd get 100 years.

Oh Erin Erin Erin, Justice Beale is about to rip you a knew one!!!

LWOP or life with minimum 45 yrs non parole is my bet.

Than we can forget you.

Thinking of Simon, the kids & Ian, who is there to see justice done.

And anyone who has ever been a victim of Erin.

I agree with you about the sentencing! IMO

He's so good at his job. I know people criticised him during the trial but he's just so thorough (in terms of making sure there's no grounds for an appeal).

"Whether or not to fix a non parole period is the main consideration"
