2003-05-13 - 5:27 p.m. see how we are - X we reached a verdict today. we found someone guilty of first degree murder. the trial is over. i can't / don't want to get into how difficult that was. but, after many questions, and much deliberation, we came to a unanimous decision. none of us was "happy". in fact, quite the opposite. as our jury foreman stated, "there are no winners here". some of the women wept, and i have to say, i had to look away from them, or i would have too. my knees felt like jelly when we were led into the courtroom, but, when the judge read the word, "guilty", i had a very clear, sure feeling inside. i know we did what was right. that makes it a bit easier. so, it's back normal. back to work, no more courtrooms, no more secrecy. the things that have become familiar are no longer applicable. just. like. that. of course, the things i've seen and heard, i suspect they'll be with me for a long time to come. i can't wait for matty to get home.
