Shoot... I missed closing arguments this morning. Pesky little things like work got in my way.

I’m guessing we will have a verdict by 3 pm.

You win!

25 years is a joke. WTH FL?

Taylor’s mom: “She was a loving, caring person. I guess it never entered her mind that someone would take advantage of a friendship.”

Can anyone clarify these? They seem like two different sentences and I’m confused.
