    The new guy just told me that the judge might rabbit on all day, and we might not get the verdict till tomorrow.

    I was just quoting something I saw on the bbc website and I think they were only guessing by the number of sheets of paper in front of the wee black judge that she has to read out.

    I'm going to guess he'll be found guilty of murder.

    Looking at the flowchart above, she could have said that she accepted that he believed that there was someone in the house and discounted both the premeditated and non-premeditated murder options in one hit.

    She discounted pre-med because the state had failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that he was guilty of it.

    She's called it a day now. For ****'s sake. No wonder this thing is taking months. She could have done that wee bit before lunch.

    Guilty of firing a gun in a restaurant. It's a token.

    Surely he'll be found guilty of manslaughter!
