Saw a couple minutes of the evening news and saw a report about the trial I was almost a juror on. The defense is, and its not surprising, going to try and pull all the stops out to get the guy off. He was claiming he had some mental defect that made him do it. Well there are ways to get treatment and some are even free, so I don't buy that. Now he's saying he has post tramatic stress from a bad childhood in which there was violence in the home. Well goodness. There are lots of people who have worse childhoods then his and they didn't commit five counts of capital murder. I doubt I will follow the trial that closely, but I will pay attention if and when they reach a verdict.
