    Nothing like being immersed in the culture to sharpen up for that holiday abroad.

    The jury has come back with a verdict this afternoon?

    oops, I answered my own question looking at SCMP online.

    There was only one realistic outcome, but the law is not often realistic.

    Back to jail you go bitch!

    Anything else would have been an appalling miscarriage.

    Agree, her defense was a total joke from the very beginning.

    She is also guilty of wasting a huge amount of public money in the retrial, which she should be ordered to pay back, and given a very lengthy minimum term behind bars before even considered for parole.

    On this I disagree strongly. She appealed the first trial on the grounds that it was not fair because of some procedural issues. The Appeal Court agreed. In other words her first conviction was not "safe". The responsibility for those costs lies with the people who screwed up the first prosecution, not with Mrs Kissell.

    I agree. Too bad that the people who screwed up are not left with the defendants costs incurred because the mistakes. Which in this case should include the new trial?

    Atleast the defense can drown their sorrows at th sevens. Good timing.

    Why does that horrible lady have trouble walking? What did they do to her in prison? Or is it just an act to make people feel sorry for her?
