Deceased/Not Found NJ - Sarah Stern, 19, Neptune City, 2 Dec 2016 #3 *Guilty*

[283]

I haven’t even seen official word that the deliberations had begun - but app is reporting verdict can come soon? Maybe they are just speculating?

The suspense all day is terrible! What is taking so long?

How long have they been deliberating?

 

[spaz1959]

Any posting of closing arguments on both sides?

This morning, the headline was “Sarah Stern verdict could come any moment,” and then a couple of hours ago, it was changed to “... could come soon” ....

Other than that, there have been no updates.

If memory serves me correctly, this has never happened since the trial started.

Huh.Do you think that means anything?

It seems to imply that the jury has it now? Any comings an goings at the courthouse ?

 

[Kavya01]

I keep checking for headlines and updates but nothing yet.
I hope the Jury has it by now, if Judge English maybe gave his instructions first thing after lunch break.... But that's just supposition.

Huh.Do you think that means anything?

Honestly, I haven’t the slightest clue.

The Monmouth County Court House closes at 4:30. So baffled by the silence!

Sarah Stern suspect's lawyer: 'Without a body there is no murder'

“FREEHOLD - Liam McAtasney’s defense attorney spent more than two hours telling jurors there is reasonable doubt to keep them from convicting him of the murder of childhood friend Sarah Stern.

[SBM]

‘If we don’t have a body, and we have a witness who says he saw the individual hours and hours and hours after the state says she was killed, we do not have a murder.‘

Christopher Decker, assistant Monmouth County prosecutor, is about to deliver the state’s closing argument.

Insane... Wasting two + more hours spewing lies. Adding two more hours of grief onto the Stern family who I'm sure just want JUSTICE and for this to be OVER... All has been so selfish to me to continue to put a family through hell.

I follow a Facebook page dedicated to SS. Just got an update that the prosecution is giving their closing statement this evening... It sounds like a late night at the courthouse!

Ah, this is what they've been doing today.

The charge to the jury is when the judge reads the charges against the defendent and the corresponding law to the jury before they begin deliberations, so the defense must have wanted some changes in wording.

Jury charging statements are usually long and I think they are kind of dumb because no one can pay attention to that mess for longer than a few minutes. At least I can't.
