C’mon. It isn’t that obscure. She is facing multiple counts for her crime, with each count coming from the number of people she put in deadly peril.

Not exactly a huge surprise considering that they would we reviewing the exact same set of facts and evidence that was presented in the first Immunity Hearing.

The murdered should be getting life or the DP rather than decreasing Alexander’s sentence. But I doubt Alexander will get 60 years.

I’ve had mixed feelings about this case from the beginning.

In the first place, I feel like a guilty verdict was clearly the correct verdict to deliver.

However, I find a 60 year sentence incredibly excessive for the crime.

There are convicted murderers that didn’t get anywhere close to a 60 year sentence.

I can’t fault the defense for asking.

If you dun ask, you dun get.
