I wonder why the courtroom staff is reading LS while the trial is going on. Are they AFRAID OF US?

I'd like to think this is good news, but I won't get my hopes up just yet. Thanks very, very much to jmoo! Haha about the blogger (you) being asked not to take pictures

Arson is the most serious charge and has the most stringent requirements to prove. I assume 8-4 means 8 jurors believe she committed a felony. That is not good by any means for the defense. Whether or not they will become unanimous who knows? But one would rather be 4-8. The lesser charges are easier to prove. It cannot be a pleasant thought for one to know that 8 people want to send you to prison. |

Is it quite unusual for the judge to announce to the courtroom exactly what the jury vote is at the moment? And then the jury goes out into the world for lunch? (In Wake County the jury goes to whichever restaurant they each want. They are reminded not to talk to anyone and they wear a big badge identifying them as jurors. In Durham, do they all eat inside the courthouse?) |

Apparently some in the jury feel it is appropriate that a guilty verdict on the lesser charges is sufficient to punish Crystal for arson and putting her children in danger. Or it could be the other way that 8 jurors feel a verdict of guilty on the lessor charges is sufficient to punish crystal because the fire did not harm the children. But either way, if there is a guilty verdict on the lessor charges, then the jury is admitting that the children were in danger. The final choice is not guilty on the lessor charges and the felony is heading toward heated debate. See how easy this is?? lol lol |

No, they go to lunch where they want. So does the judge. |

I suspect Crystal is eating with her supporters unless of course V. Peterson brought fried chicken to them and the judge. |

Haha! Yeah, how about all of them Mountain Dews she was served (with a smile) at the police station over the past few years. |

I'm wondering if one "Michael B. Nifong" is reading the blog today. After all, he is not going to stand by and have an innocent mother of 3, honor student and pillar of the community be sent up the creek for arson. |

Baldo: “It cannot be a pleasant thought for one to know that 8 people want to send you to prison.” And that’s just her lawyer. Imagine what Crystal’s feeling about now. |
