Ann, Nancy, that's my worry, too - those one or two people with "questions". These days it doesn't take much defense-wise to raise the questions Nurmi did but when he did trash Travis Alexander and bring up the issue about a dead man with immature sexual fantasies about a hypothetical 12 year old girl(which apparently many non-PC men do still have if you ever go on Twitter click on the wrong hashtag(!) or observe the culture at large), I lost all patience with him. Really? He's going to use that as an excuse to say it wasn't pre-meditated or Alexander was a domestic abuser?

Nurmi's saying that doesn't raise the question in a reasonable person's mind that could render TA some type of domestic abuser and excuse his pre-meditated murder. But that's in any reasonable person's mind - and as we know, juries are usually a cross-section of us and we aren't all that reasonable at times.

I'm so jaded now I'm pretty sure we'll here one or two of them say they had some questions and just didn't get a clear picture and yada yada yada so they had to vote 2nd degree or worse, manslaughter. No courage of their convictions and a long or death sentence is just too hard for them to take responsibility for. But if society doesn't nail her on this one - it will sooner or later by ostracizing her and the true nuts will make her life miserable. I don't doubt she'll re-offend if she walks very early and then justice will get her. I hope I'm wrong and this jury is different but I worry it's not. I hope Linda is right.
