All respect to Karen Dior since the thread was primarily about her.
Bob posted this message after the verdict came down:
"June 17, 2004
I have an update on Sylvia's situation. Her trial has concluded and
she has been convicted of second degree murder. I attended court and
watched the closing arguments of both sides. The prosecutor was still
driving for a 1st degree murder conviction. The jury was given four
options by the prosecutor, which were: First and second degree murder,
voluntary & involuntary manslaughter.
Realistically I didn't think Sylvia should have been found completely
innocent. But knowing what I know, I think a manslaughter verdict
would have been more appropriate. Unfortunately the jury doesn't get
to see the whole scenario. And as I see it, the prosecution presented
a more convincing case than the defense did, especially in the closing
arguments. Her sentence will be given out on June 28. If any of you
are friends of Sylvia and would like to send a letter to the court on
her behalf, address it to:
Judge Richard A. Stone
9355 Burton Way
Beverly Hills, CA 90210
Of course make it soon, so the judge receives it before the sentencing
date. I wish her the best of luck on that part.
I know I've said this before, but I hope the TG community in general
will learn something from the two lives that were wasted on March 17,
2003. Unfortunately I still see the idiotic catfights happening. They
may be less frequent than before, but they still happen and you never
know when a "simple catfight" will escalate into tragedy. That's all I
have to say about that.
