You and AHCL – I know that you guys really respect one another but your public bickering is kinda funny.

One strike. One lousy strike. The prosecutor was just having an “off” day.

Back to the issue of double-strikes, I still think it happens a lot more than you think it does.

So, please consider this my formal notice of “See! I told you so!”

Yep, if we’d been before a judge who had ever granted an instructed verdict, then this case might have been a real nail-biter.

A whale you almost got an instructed verdict on! –Think the ending of the Tennessee-St. Louis Super Bowl. Competitors don’t take consolation prizes, but way to make the prosecutor sweat, Mark!

Much quicker than it seems: maybe 15 minutes of deliberation. I guess it was more of a whale than I had convinced myself.

Guilty verdict. Hate it when that happens.

The prosecutor is arguing as we speak.

And the verdict was? (Or is the jury still out?)
