So the trial for the “husband from hell” is just about over. With the closing arguments complete, now we all have to wait for the jury to deliberate.

How does everyone feel about this case? Do you think he’ll walk or get what he deserves? Also – I’ve been told that the judge is only going to give a 2-hour notice once the jury has reached its verdict. We do have a cable TV in the lounge area here at work, so I’ve been setting it to Court TV to try and keep up-to-date. I even noticed on their website that you can get the verdict sent to your cell phone, which is pretty crazy (though I’m the only one of my friends without one yet!)

Personally, there’s nothing I’d rather see than a death sentence for this disgusting human, though life in prison wouldn’t be a bad 2nd option either.

I hope that sick you-know-what gets the death sentence. He doesn't deserve to live after what he's done.

2 countsReally? So the court system considers the fetus a living being in this case? How many months was it?

I think he'll walk. he's a creep for sure, but proven guilty beyond the shadow of a doubt? I don't think so.

I'm not sure, but it was close to being born, I think.

I don't particularly like it, but in order to be consistent about abortion and this, I will support the decision.
