I told my Rhona and she was like, oh noooo!

Bless her - she’s beautiful

All I hope is that the verdict will be the correct one, whatever that is. The scandalous wrongful imprisonment of Andy Malkinson for 17 years is at the forefront of many people’s minds in the U.K.

I've been thinking about that. I'm in a completely different part of the country but I wonder if it's getting even more coverage on the local news in Manchester/the North West where the jury pool will be drawn from. If it's giving them pause for thought it could be contributing to the lengthy time in retirement.

I agree that it might be more prominent than usual in some jurors’ minds.

Jury Deliberations in R vs. Letby began on 10 July 2023.
The 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup began on 20 July 2023 and the final match is on Sunday (20 August 2023).
If the jury do not reach a verdict by close of play on Friday then this jury will have taken longer to decide if Lucy Letby is guilty or not guilty than the whole world took to meet across various venues in Australia and New Zealand to decide which nation's ladies are the best at association football.

What could be more stressful than being on the stand in a courtroom accused of murder?

Being found guilty, I suppose.

Actually, I'm not completely sure about that.

 

[Kemug]

I doubt she has time for a leisurely beauty routine before setting out for court each morning.

Probably not so much lack of time as lack of the necessary things needed.

He was convicted on what the jury heard, it was that which was withheld by the police and prosecution which was the issue ,one hopes all relevant evidence was heard in this case.

So - this is day twenty two of deliberations, I believe? Same number of days as there are charges.

No predictions from me - just a normal Friday and absolutely NOTHING to see here.
It’s raining again, that’s the only news I have

OMG, my apologies, what appalling grammar! Please forgive me!

 

[Marantz4250b]

I wonder whether we will get the judge asking as to progress today if there is no result by close of play today?

 

[Dotta]

[CS2C]

The verdict will arrive when it happens, in the meantime just been out and picked another 2lbs (kilo for the younguns)of blackberries, bumper year this year.

Exactly so. For me, the principle still stands, whatever the cause. Juries should be questioning every possible evidential anomaly. I’m baffled that in this particular case so few questions have apparently been asked. JMO.

Does that mean I have to have 22 cups of coffee today instead of yesterday’s 3?
