Wow judge will sentence in a few minutes.

It's a mandatory sentence.

OMG I am shocked it was so fast ! And I do agree. I hope though she does get help while in prison because she is ill, just not legally insane imho.

Is there death penalty in Florida?

Guilty

What the-- I just got home and there's a verdict already!!!!

Everybody else was more conflicted than the jury. I was leaning toward M1 but would have been okay with either verdict, I could see how people could believe either way.

You and me both. I think I would have gone with MI.

Do note friends: defense counsel wanted sentencing deferred and judge said "yeah, i don't think so" --- so we shall have sentencing in a few.

I really really hope she is sent to a hospital. Forever. But that's just me.

 

[Spellbound]

Wow! Sentencing will be soon, short break.

 

[Rhozwen]

Defense asking to delay sentencing because of the issues she brought up (assuming it's the issue with the alt. juror giving statement to media)

Judge denies request and states that defense is able to file appropriate motions regarding issue at bench.

Judge says Proceed to sentencing - Defense asked for a few minutes.

Judge stepping down, defense will let him know when they are ready.

Is there death penalty in Florida?

Yes there is.

 

[seattlechiquita]

Is there death penalty in Florida?

Yes, but this is not a DP case. The prosecution declined to pursue the DP due to the defendant's mental illness if I recall correctly.

 

[Rhozwen]

Is there death penalty in Florida?

Yes there is. But this case is not a DP case.

Is there death penalty in Florida?

Yes, but it's off the table for this case

 

[wendiesan]

She's handcuffed and in chains.

 

[popsicle]

Got her leg chains on!

 

[shiloh42]

DP isn't on the table, so it'll be life.
