    So, interesting point here is that the jury only took 4 hours to complete. Just four. That means that they basically made up their minds and they just needed to confirm.

        Judging from my understanding of the trial, that pretty much sums up his defense.

    At least some asshole in this country gets the consequences they deserve.

    115 years. Where is your mind at knowing that.

      Under sentencing guidelines they’re very unlikely to be served consecutively. Probably more like 20 years.
