There are some rules and ethics followed in the medical business, even if your particular opinions on abortion aren't shared by everyone (we do have another thread running rampant on the subject as you are well aware).
But you are right, in that he does have a strong case for an appeal on the second count, as the law that allowed him to be charged on the second count hasn't been brought to a judge for ruling on appeal yet.
Hopefully other things will be deemed "newsworthy" by then though.

Killing him accomplishes nothing other than satisfying a few peoples vindictive minds. The worst punishment is not death, it is hellish life.
I think it sucks when we have to pay to keep him alive. And also pay to kill him.
The real death penalty is taking him out back and spending the money for one bullet and the hour of labor to shoot him. Then let the family pay for burial I sure as hell don't want to.
Kinda cruel but I like it

I don't think he should get the death penalty... I feel that the death penalty should be reserved for the cases when there's direct evidence. Here, pretty much all evidence has been circumstantial. Basically, I don't think it's right to put someone to death when there's still a possibility that someone else might have done it.

Maybe now I won't have to wait 30+ minutes to get a decent local weather report now that this bull**** coverage is off the air...
*raises glass* Here's to him possibly getting the death sentence when I’m in my late 40's, the bloodsucking media who covered this story and to our worthless legal system! *cheers*

every one knows he's guilty, even though the case should've been thrown out since the prosecution couldn't even prove a cause of death, weapon, or motive among other things. He was convicted beacause the feminasts are still mad about oj
