Okay - I only have 2 counts of theft & 2 counts of burglary. Would the robbery be the burglary one?

Thanks!

Yes, the conference is still on for tomorrow.

When the plea deals were accepted by the judge, he pretty much sealed the verdict on Taylor. Defense would have had to produce earth-shaking evidence to get a not-guilty on the murder charge. Could you imagine the outrage if two got deals and then no one was left to pin the murder on?

An enhancement of murder of a fetus was never filed because the state could not prove Taylor knew Blackburn was pregnant, a judge tells WRTV.
