Dallas attorney Richard Franklin, who was appointed by the court to represent Langrum, said it was a difficult case to defend as they had nothing to counter the accusations.

Jury deadlock prompts judge to declare mistrialMurder suspect Alex Roberson will undergo a new trial for the killing of a toddler after Judge Mike Snipes of the State District announced a mistrial. The mistrial was prompted when two of the 12 jurors made a stance in their belief that Roberson was not guilty of beating to death one-year and eight-month old Trey Jenkins, the son of his girlfriend. If the jury had not been deadlocked, Roberson would have automatically received a sentence of life imprisonment. Roberson has been accused of mauling the little boy which resulted to broken ribs. The boy also had damaged liver, adrenal glands and lungs, which caused his death. During the trial, Dallas criminal defense attorney Bill Cox said that the toddler's mother, Precious Williams, could have been the one to inflict the fatal injuries on her boy. Shequitta Kelly, who was prosecuting the case, said that Williams may be far from an ideal mother but she could have never killed her own son.

Irish nanny facing murder in death of 1-year-old girl denied bailAisling Brady McCarthy, a nanny from Ireland, will have to await her murder trial in jail after she was denied bail. McCarthy is accused of the death of Remah Sabir, a one-year-old girl who had suffered a head trauma while under her care. She was brought in to the hospital and died two days later. However, McCarthy may get a reprieve after the judge got frustrated with the prosecutors' delay in handing over medical proof which could prove critical for her defense. David Meier, a criminal attorney in Boston defending for McCarthy, said that the evidence they were asking for is necessary to the case. McCarthy's defense said they are not ready to go to trial in April because of the delay.

Eric Lindell, the Seattle criminal lawyer defending for Taylor, had asked for a $10,000 bail saying that his client has not been taking his medicines for Asperger's Syndrome. This was countered by the prosecution, who sought a $1 million bail. Lindell was jailed when he posted several threatening messages on Seattle Mayor Ed Murray's Facebook page. He also posted a threat which authorities believed targeted Kshama Sawant, the first socialist to have become a member of the City Council. 20 years in prison for murder conviction in nightclub shootingA murder conviction will have Mark Anthony Garcia spending 20 years in prison for the death of Michael Angelo Morales.

Albert Acevedo, a defense attorney in San Antonio, said that his client, Garcia, was not the killer. Instead he was the one who tried to stop another man, Hector Lozano, from shooting Morales. Lozano is still awaiting for his own trial. |
