This has been a heated topic on the web and tv pundits for a while now. I don't think they will get murder 2, reckless homicide would be good. His parents aren't looking to burn him at the stake etc. They are seeking that justice is served to the one that killed their son. They want him to be brought to trial and judged by a jury not the public. They will live with whatever the verdict is because they know that in the end, everything was done to get justice for their son. They don't need to see him get the death penalty because that won't bring their son back. Justice I believe would be his gun permit revoked permanently, jail time, and if he is able to get out on parole he should be made to go around and speak to schools about what happened.

Jury Tampering
I've been attending the Jason Young trial off and on for the past 4 weeks in person. Some people in the media (not all and in this case they know who they are) made some broad and baseless assumptions that it sure is nice I have all this free time on my hands to be able to attend a trial in person.
If you don't know me or live in my house NEVER make assumptions on why I might be attending a trial in person and or have all the time to do this etc. While this was the 3rd trial, 2nd in this area, this year I attended in person, I've been lucky to be able to.
Appearances can be deceiving. Anything I attend in person is because I have followed the case from day 1 and want to see all the evidence live if I have the time as it is neat. I can currently attend trials during the day during the week thanks to the lovely economy tank 2 years ago that hit the Administrative Assistant field the worst and still hasn't regained. Yup! Unemployed and not on unemployment. Would hate to have people assume I was taking advantage of the system or something.
I have been trying for the last over 2 years to gain employment only succeeding for a short time 2 summers ago with the lovely Census Bureau! Resume after resume sent out and interview after interview still goose egg on offers.
My loving husband is in an industry that makes it ok for me to be able to take the time to look for the right job etc. unlike most in my industry have. Thanks to a great year with his current company he got an awesome bonus and raise at the end of the year! The year prior we had to sell one of our 2 cars due to the switch from his previous job to the new company as it was contractor status much longer than it should have been and we ended up having to for the first time in 13 years paying for health insurance up the wazoo on our own until he was signed... a lapse of 6 months b/w companies.
So we currently have 1 car, no a/c or heat on the main floor where our bedroom is (for over 2 years), etc. but we are rolling in dough! At least from the outside looking in people make that assumption. Most days Bill goes to work and I'm stranded at home all day all week. We decided for this trial I would drop him off on my way to court and pick him up on my way home at the end of the day.
I do not work for a newspaper or tv news station, I'm just a lover of true crime and have been for 18 years. I was sitting in court as an observer and tweeting for those who couldn't be there and wanted to know what was up. Contrary to this time last year I'm not affiliated with anything to do with the Brad Cooper case. Any protests etc. have nothing to do with me.
At the lunch break I left court for the day not talking to anyone. I come home to find out a few hours later that someone had approached a juror and tried to strike up a conversation on the Jason Young case I had been attending.
I will not publicly say who I thought it was as I don't know the persons name and they were only there for 1 day out of 4 weeks of the trial and probably did it as a not thinking at the time thing. I will emphatically say it was NOT me. Apparently though the vibe I've gotten is that was the assumption since I never came back after the lunch break.
I would -NEVER- approach someone with a juror badge period. I waited in the courtroom for a period of time to make sure if they were taking elevators or were in the elevator lobby they were gone before I left. If I am out in the lobby and there is anyone involved with the case waiting for elevators etc. I stand away from the elevators and wait until the lobby is clear and then call for an elevator so no possibility of that situation.
Why after being there for 4 weeks would I suddenly decide to try and talk to a juror? I think it was an honest mistake by the person that just wasn't thinking. Yesterday was their first day at the court house etc. that's all I will say on it. my leaving yesterday had to do with something personal and I had no idea about the juror attempt until well after I got home.
When I came in the court room this morning the vibe was very strange and came off as everyone surprised I returned after I tried to talk to a juror yesterday etc. I sat there all morning with a reporter that I know loathes me sitting next to me on one side out of the blue and a detective sliding in on the other side during the defense closings. I just kept waiting for LE to tap me on the shoulder or something to come with them. That's what it seriously felt like!
So I im'd my husband at work(his first day back this week since being out sick) telling him I was heading home as soon as the lunch break started. I asked if he wanted me to stop and pick him up as we only have the one car(I dropped him off there on the way to court) and he said yes. He's still feelin icky so it was a great timing for him to come home and work from home.
Only a few times in my life have I had my integrity questioned like that and I was shocked. My integrity is everything to me.
Life is short, don't waste it with anger/assumptions/ etc. live it to your fullest and happiest. Unless you are in the situation, don't jump to conclusions without all the facts.
I'm currently in the process, thanks to my husbands bonus and raise at the end of last year, updating and upgrading my home studio for my partnered Youtube channel and the photography for my nail blog!
Peace and love.

The Jason Young Trial
I feel I need to do this as a blog post so I can just post it all at once and can paste the url to it on my twitter and facebook for people asking my thoughts as it winds down.
When I first heard about the murder and Meredith finding her after Jason asked her to go get those papers I, like many people, immediately felt he did it and how sick and twisted that was to make her sister find her.
After sitting through 2 weeks in court and 2 at my tv watching all the evidence, reactions, etc. I know this won't be liked by some people, but, as an outside observer knowing everything, waaaaay too much reasonable doubt. I can see why the last deadlock happened.
I left the courthouse today with my opinion completely changed from 11/06. There's no physical evidence connecting him. no blood anywhere, no marks, no dog prints in blood.
I believe the postal worker's observations.
This incident happened within 5 miles of another case where they zero'd in on the husband and ignored anything that didn't fit their idea of what happened. That verdict was guilty to a husband that is innocent.
Let me tell those of you that don't live in this area, the Cary Police, wake county sheriffs, and SBI are all under investigation for how they collect evidence etc. It is these same groups that have made it so Michael Peterson is able to be out on bail and get a new trial. they actually did a wide sweep of firings due to it.
Now, I'm not saying Jason isn't an inconsiderate and adultering asshole. But that doesn't equal murder. It also doesn't mean he couldn't have hired someone else to do it which I could go with given the observations of the Postal Worker. There has been talk of a suspicious white working van before in one of the other cases.
Anyone consider the 2 in the smaller type suv (which I thought in my mind like a toyota rav 4 or something) at the edge of the driveway might be a scorned fling and husband or male friend? It's an avenue never traveled. Not saying it was just throwing out other possibilities.
Bottom line is this. It was a horrible incident to a wonderful woman and her unborn son. I think that due to the inept LE in this area we will never know what really happened. While Jason was an ass of a man to her, it doesn't make him a murderer. I feel for the Fisher family and Michelle's friends etc. but based on the evidence or lack there of, he didn't do this.

Michael Jackson Case again
something people haven't picked up or made a point about is when they were introducing all the medication bottles into evidence not only were there multiple bottles of the same type of med, they were filled around the same time by different doctors, but they were also filled at multiple different chains of pharmacies and with fake names.
I think Michael is somewhat responsible for his addiction, however, if there were federal laws against using anything other than your legal name I think a lot of celebrities we have lost recently would still be around.
When I watched them entering all those meds it pissed me off because it's cases like this that make people like me have such a hard time establishing trust with a doctor and vice versa with all that I deal with daily.
I had a doctor accuse me of pharmacy hopping and being addicted to a medicine when in reality I had stage 4 endometriosis and he wasn't reading notes that were being sent in by my gynecologist just initialing them. I had several surgeries he had no idea about. Thanks to him, the accusation is forever in my medical record and it screwed me out of a car accident settlement.
People also shouldn't be allowed to get controlled substances like MJ had from multiple doctors/pharmacies. There should be a federal system that all pharmacies enter prescriptions into to keep the record so that you don't get people "doctor/pharmacy hopping". If someone tried to get multiple fills of the same med or class of med it would pop up when the pharmacy tried to fill it and make them aware which will lessen the chances of a stockpile of meds and addiction/accidental overdose.
I was curious why Arnie Klein won't be called to the witness stand. Is it because he'd probably invoke the 5th? Is there a possibility still of charging him as well? With it coming out he was dosing MJ several times a week with demerol shots etc., he too is culpable. I don't know of anything dermatologically needing demerol. This is turning into a case of the left hand didn't know what the right hand was doing and MJ obviously knew what HE was doing.
When I say MJ is partially responsible, I mean for his addiction. For the actual cause of death Dr. Murray is 100% culpable. He gave the propofal but really wasn't paying attention to MJ, rather he was too busy making booty calls etc. The fact that he called one of the women from the ambulance is just jaw dropping. He used a medicine outside of the setting it is intended for and was able to stockpile it at that.

Day 1 of Dr. Murray's Trial
Wow. I really wish that I hadn't seen the picture of him dead on the gurney or heard the audio that Dr. Murray recorded on his I-Phone. It makes you wonder though, why would he record that and why would he keep it? It really doesn't matter how Michael got addicted and to what, what matters is what happened during the time that Dr. Murray was in charge of his care.
I have had surgery many times with propofol and take lorazepam daily and when doing dental procedures they up the dose of lorazepam aka Ativan to relax me to a point I won't recall the dental visit. Both of these are done in a medical facility with oxygen and someone monitoring me at all times.
The fact that Michael was taking Demerol shots without Dr. Murray knowing is intriguing. However, even if he had that shot, that day, Dr. Murray was responsible for Michael's health. He knew Michael had to be supervised while using propofol yet he decided to leave the room and call his girlfriends.
From my own experience with propofol if used appropriately there is no way Michael could have dosed himself because you go RIGHT out with it. He wouldn't have woken up during the time Dr. Murray was out of the room, instead, he would stop breathing as was recently showed by a Dr. in a hospital setting. He put his patient under, and the patient did stop breathing so they immediately got a trach tube in etc. He stopped breathing under a minute after going under. Michael didn't have a chance.
It doesn't matter what he gave to him etc. the fact that he administered something that should be in a hospital setting with no resuscitation equipment etc. and then left him unattended is what is really what matters in the case. He was a cardiologist and didn't know how to do CPR?? He was doing it 1 handed when the security and others came in ON the bed. Anyone that has been CPR trained knows you move the patient to a hard surface like the floor and it is a 2 handed technique. I think he did it for appearances knowing Michael was dead. Asking if anyone else knew CPR? are you kidding me? He called a ton of people before 911 was called. He was on the phone with one of his girlfriends when he realized what was going on. Shows how much he truly cared for Michael. Making a booty call instead of watching over Michael.
It does sound to me that Arnie Klein might also need to be looked into for providing the Demerol. He had him addicted to it! Why aren't they going to be calling him in this case? Is there a case pending against him too?

Michael Jackson Case
So they are currently going through the jury questionnaires to see who to try and knock out as potential jurors etc. It got me wondering... how many of you could put aside everything you know and have heard regarding anything and everything Michael Jackson or Conrad Murray related to just listen to the facts presented in the case and come up with a verdict just based on what is presented in court?
I would like to think I'd be someone that could put everything aside and just go by what's presented in the court room. Anything can be said or presented outside the courtroom and it could or couldn't be the truth or relevant in a case. I think the only relevant stuff in a case is what's allowed in court in front of the jury. If it can't go in front of the jury it probably wasn't relevant or legal.
so that begs the question.... could you wipe your mind for a case?
