Cant figure out why no murderer charge!!!

Me either. Didn't follow this case closely, but clearly she premeditated, IMO.

Makes my blood boil. As someone else said, she could have paid someone to take care of him and keep him safe.

New Trial Ordered for NY Millionaire in Autistic Son's Death

A federal judge has ordered a new trial for a self-made health care millionaire who was convicted six years ago of fatally drugging her 8-year-old autistic son in a luxury New York City hotel room in 2010.

Friday's ruling by Manhattan Federal Magistrate Judge Sarah Cave stems from a 2014 closed courtroom discussion that was requested by the lead prosecutor in the case. Cave determined the off-the-record exchange regarding online material had violated Gigi Jordan's Sixth Amendment right to a public trial. At the time, one of Jordan's lawyers repeatedly objected to the private discussion.

A spokesperson for Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance Jr. said in a written statement that the office “strenuously disagrees” with the ruling and intends to immediately appeal the decision to Manhattan federal appeals judges. If it becomes necessary, spokesperson Danny Frost said, the office will retry Jordan for killing her son, Jude Mirra.
