You're thinking East Coast time
If a judge in Redwood City, CA said 4 PM he meant 4 PM Pacific time, or about 3 hours 40 minutes from right now.

See, I doubt that.
I think it's 1st degree or nothing. 2nd Degree only means it wasn't pre-meditated, but given the nature of the death, it most definitely seemed planned in some way. I think he's not guilty. Nothing concrete on him.

Of course, as we all saw with OJ, that doesn't mean he didn't do it.

29. A friend of mine was shot in the head and killed by her husband.
You may remember the case of Leann Fletcher four years ago. Same story. He was having an affair. Leann ends up pregnant. He takes her to a shooting range, and then they go home and he shoots her. She hated guns. He wanted it to look self inflicted i.e. gunpowder on hands from shooting range. It was an open and shut Murder One case. He ended up guilty of Murder two. You just can never tell.

and start reporting real news? I'll bet anybody $100 that they're still talking about this stupid case every day a year from now.

45. You started it.
Implying that our troops lives are worth more than Laci’s.
There was no reason to go to the trouble of making this post otherwise.

48. My point was that this is a murder trial, being blown all the hell out of
proportion by the media, when yet more people are dying in an immoral and unjust war.

Further, my point was that there's no reason for this type of hype around a criminal trial.

Further, I'll add that it's due to media hype that I even know who you're talking about when you use the name "Laci."

My point was not, as you surmise, that "our troops lives are worth more than Laci's."

I could similarly surmise that you find Laci Peterson to be less patriotic than "our troops" because she wasn't a member of the military, but since I don't know if she ever joined up (or ever tried and was rejected), I won't.

Now that we know the verdict: if the verdict were "not guilty," would that mean to you that the jurors found Laci unworthy of justice?
