Jury made the right decision. Unless there's virtually airtight evidence, you can't send someone up for life or to the electric chair. The prosecution's case had a lot of holes in it.

Better a guilty person get off free than have something like the Todd Willingham case happen again. Guy wasn't a nice guy, but he was executed in Texas on testimony that was later proven to be incompetent.

She is not a bad looking young lady and I'm sure she is smart enough to capitalize on the situation.

Perhaps she can open a daycare center...

Possible in some states, but other will not give a license or certificate if they have a felony (she has multiple felony convictions for check fraud) record.

I think she will soon be appearing on an adult video.....or Jerry Springer,does he even have a show anymore?

yep. He even has a new one now called Baggage. Try to catch one where he is trying to hook the dude up with one of the three babes. Interesting to see how young women think these days.

Porn seems like a, er, uh, perfect fit for her.

If I was a juror, having sat through approx. 30 days or more of that crap, I might be looking for a little compensation above and beyond the pittance the state gives you.

That's why we haven't had an execution in Canada since the early 60's. There have been some fairly high profile mistakes made in the past few years and the State paid for those mistakes.

However, there are those exceptions where a lot of people here might enjoy a neck tie party.....


Paul Bernardo comes to mind. He and his wife Carla raped and killed two young school girls and Paul is believed to have raped many more. Carla testifed for the crown but was later found to be complicit. She got 12 years ( I think ) and he's still behind bars in solitary. He gets one hour outside his cell each day. He will never get out of prison, ever.

It gets better. The police missed video tapes hidden in a light fixture in the couple's house but were turned in by his lawyer of all people. The tapes showed one girl being raped repeatedly for days by both of them and the girl begging for her life. One girl was found naked in a wooded area and the other was found in a lake. She had been cut up and encased in concrete. A fisherman somehow snagged a piece and that's how they found her - cut up by a chain saw and put in cement. Try that one for public outcry.

I saw on the news yesterday that Jerry Springer has offered her $1million for her and her family to be on his show. I suspect she is kinda trashy.

I saw the MSNBC show about them. Whoa, some deviant and ugly shyte all right. Was that the case where she "gave" him her younger sister and they accidentally killed her in the process? I didn't trust her victim routine one bit.

Maybe life in solitary is better punishment than death.

But that is TX. Everyone knows TX is 'different'. Just look at the issues surrounding the guy TX executed last night.

Florida isn't much better. (I might support the death penalty in a perfect world, but not in reality because it's damned hard to un-kill someone who've you just killed after new evidence comes out. Plus the participation of doctors in lethal injection is abhorrent and disgusting -- please at least use a method that only requires the use of hired killers, not medical professionals who took an oath to save life.)

So, a man is 30 yo. You jailed him for 10 years before you found the new "real" perp. He is now 40 yo. Please explain how you can "un-jail" him. Don't start with the "at least he has the rest.....". After all, you did take 10 years away from him and you can never give him that back. His kids are grown up, relatives and loved ones moved on, etc, etc.

Unfortunately, people insist that the perp be killed in a humane way. Otherwise, you can obviously find a few guys who will gladly strangle him for a few packs of cigarettes in prison.

You "un-jail" by restoring their freedom and rights; provide a method or means for potential restitution if laws were violated. Much easier than "un-executing" an innocent.
