    Thanks for that report, Tom. God has a special corner in Hell where he really stokes up the fires for people who hurt children and people who hurt animals.

    Thanks for the info. I’ve been reading about it in both the Eagle and the DM. I couldn’t tell which direction it was going to go from those reports. Reading the mom’s statements made my stomach flip over – it’s just so unimaginable to me. I agree with Ben.

    I don’t think anyone knew which direction it was going to go. That’s just how it was in court. One minute you felt like, “HANG THEM!” then it you thought, “weelll…now wait a minute…” I am so glad I was not a juror. Difficult case from start to finish. Very impressive job done by a young lawyer, Shane McLaughlin. He defended Tim Jordan and while he didn’t win his case, he did as well as any attorney could have done with this case. Very sharp. Looks about 12. But I’m old so everyone does.
    Anyway, glad it’s over. Unfortunately, it won’t ever be over for the victim.
