Now..
1. Where was the child killed
2. How was the child killed
3. Who is proven to be the killer
4. What killed the child.
None were answered in the trial!!!

Question: Do you convict her for being A-C or do you not convict her
because you lack 1-4?

As a retired "Good Ole Boy" attorney once said to me .."The law is lousy".

I would call it a mis trial and wait until the State had good proof. I heard
one person at the Defense table say quietly, "It is a travesty of justice"
I could not say it better.
I would have to agree with you. Let me add a couple of my own.

Did the judge gave nearly every decision to the benefit of the prosecution?

Did the prosecution over charge in this case?

Was the judge so concerned about the budgetary expenses of a new trial that may have influenced his decisions?

Was the defense attorney experienced and competent enough to be handling the trial?

Did the defendant in a fair trial?

Does anybody care?
