OMG a juror is already talking to Nancy Grace on the phone!
Live on HLN.
:what:
Male Juror
Says evidence was overwhelming..Journal was full of hate, well thought out. You could tell she was planning how she was going to do it. Defense never proved that she didn't know right from wrong. The whole thing was a sad, sad case.
Feels it was premeditated. C and B didn't deserve what they got. it's a shame she didn't get help long before it happened. He's not sure she got the right kind of help.
When looking at JS, he saw a person who is really mentally sick, and she's on full meds, but seemed to break down a few times. she seemed to be in control of her self, taking notes and following the case quite well. She's a very intelligent woman, and there's a lot of demons going around in that head of hers.
he thought she knew what she was doing. She was depressed and he's not sure she could handle those two kids, not sure what the home life was like.
She just couldn't take it anymore and he doesn't know how much she wanted to kill herself. she had the chance to do it, but didn't take it.
He thinks everyone on jury was on the same page. They had discussion about what could have been going on in her mind at the time of the crime.
the shot in the mouth was something significant. the "mouthy mouth" comment..etc.
just showed hate.
Shooting the kids in the mouth showed them hatred - that was a big point of the jury's discussion. It was something they discussed to make sure they were making the right decision.
Alcohol didn't really come in to play in his opinion. He feels instead of rehab, she should have been committed to a mental institution, and all of this could have been prevented/avoided.
Defense brought up good points, but in the end they felt she knew what she was doing.
I have to run out, but wanted to type out what he was saying. Seems they were spot on to how some of us were feeling here.
Just wanted to say thanks to the jurors. This was an especially difficult decision.
