The Supreme Court said Circuit Judge Charles D. Griffith Jr., who presided over the trial, erred in keeping that information from the jury.' "

Tough One (Score:1) by Davidadelong on 09:21 PM January 16th, 2006 EST (#1) I don't know, she lied to the police, obviously scared, she was attacked previously, hence the 75 stitches and broken jaw. The jury didn't have all the information at the first trial according to the article. Personally, before I could make an intelligent decision on this one I would need more information. If I were to use a knee jerk reaction because she was a Woman, and killed the Father of her Child, I would say hang her. But, if I were to seek real justice "where is that?" I might want to know the whole story before I were to condemn her. One would have to asssume that if she had planned this it would have went down differently. Do unto others..........
