yes, seemed quick for all the reasons sibling posts mention.
appeals aside, it's not over... We've had first trial, yes, but what about second trial?
Four charges had been separated out into a second trial for March 11 of next year. Same judge, different jury? May have been due to logistical reasons or discussions with the Bahamanian government around extradition. It sounds like the government has the option of dropping these over the next months as well.
Sentencing for this one (or both but that seems extremely quick) was just scheduled for March 28 2024.
- jalapenos 3y agoWhy does the sentencing happen so long after the verdict?
- HolyLampshade 3y agoDepends on the jurisdiction and sentencing guidelines, but my layman’s understanding is so that both parties have time to construct and file arguments over the severity of the sentence.
