SS: Lady Cop, if these guys are charged with murder one, the jury can find them guilty of a lesser charge?
yes if judge instructs them on lesser-included.
i think Lisa's ex is a big fat red herring.
this is first time i have voiced concern/worry over the case. the unknown DNA will be pivotal and could equate to reasonable doubt when defense plays it...and they WILL play it for all it's worth. i have to continue to believe prosecution would not have gone to trial if they did not believe they can win convictions.
good to see you again Methusala
