They Have Reached a Verdict

A verdict in the Scott Peterson murder trial has been reached. It will be announced at 3:00 PM Central time. It will probably be at this link.

I can't imagine him being found guilty, without any solid evidence, but jurors are strange creatures. I was a juror in an assault case several years back, and I had the guy walking all the way up until jury instructions were given. Once the judge layed down the rule of law, and the criteria we were swarn to use to reach a decision, a guilty verdict was the only option.

I guess we'll find out Scott's fate in about an hour.
