It is a big responsibilty that you took on, and it is touching that you took your duty so seriouesly. In time the mixed feelings you seem to be having will smooth out, yet you will keep the lesons that you learned through the prosses and from having a part in the consaquences close in your heart and you will grow as a person.

You're right in your thinking and I appreciate your support. I don't think it hit the kid as to what he'd done unitl he saw the grave removal photos. Bad, bad, bad. Sloane Thanks, Beth.

I wish all of our young people (and definitely our politicians) would get that into their thick heads and consider what it really means. I can sympathize with your feelings about sitting on that jury. As decent people sitting on a jury, it's normal to want to find the good in the criminal because we don't want to feel responsible for them spending most of their life in prison, or worse, getting the death penalty. But the important thing to remember is, we didn't commit the crime that got them into that jam. THEY committed it. Do the crime, you do the time is how I see it. Unfortunately though, for some reason when people kill others in the commission of another crime, they never seem to think the consequences will fall on their heads. But it does, so congratulations for having the courage to come up with the verdict you all did. Welcome back, by the way. ;-) /B Yeah, Sloane, greed, even a little amount of greed, as illustrated in your blog, will get ya every time.

Thank you for sharing the information. Dennis Fritz went through a horrible time and I'm glad to hear his faith and abilities not only proved his innocence but brought the true criminal to justice. I definitely will buy Journey Toward Justice. Sloane Barabara, this is an amazing story and one I’d not heard. Thank you for sharing the information.

A Book Recommendation: This is the Companion book to John Grisham's The Innocent Man, Journey Toward Justice by Dennis Fritz. Journey Toward Justice is a testimony to the Triumph of the human Spirit and is a Memoir. Dennis Fritz was wrongfully convicted of rape and murder after a swift trail. The only thing that saved him from the Death Penalty was a lone vote from a juror. Dennis Fritz was the other Innocent man mentioned in John Grisham's Book which mainly is about Ronnie Williamson, Dennis Fritz's co-defendant. Both were exonerated after spending 12 years in prison. The real killer was one of the Prosecution's Key Witness. Read about why he went on a special diet of his while in prison, amazing and shocking. Dennis Fritz's Story of unwarranted prosecution and wrongful conviction needs to be heard. Look for his book in book stores or at Amazon.com , Journey Toward Justice by Dennis Fritz, Publisher Seven Locks Press 2006. . Read about how he wrote hundreds of letters and appellate briefs in his own defense and immersed himself in an intense study of law. He was a school teacher and a ordinary man whose wife was brutally murdered in 1975 by a deranged 17 year old neighbor. On May 8th 1987, Five years after Debbie Sue Carter's rape and murder he was home with his young daughter and put under arrest, handcuffed and on his way to jail on charges of rape and murder. After 10 years in prison he discovered The Innocence Project, a non-profit legal organization. With the aid of Barry Scheck and DNA evidence Dennis Fritz was exonerated on April 15,1999 Since then, it has been a long hard road filled with twist and turns and now on his Journey Toward Justice. He never blamed the Lord and solely relied on his faith in God to make it through. He waited for God's time and never gave up. “Journey Toward Justice” Changed my mind about the Death Penalty.
