I loathe seeing this current event on the news (when I'm trying to see Groundhog Phil updates). Throw the whole family away.

Is it possible this is a significant reason why they wanted separate trials?

She "wasn't comfortable" putting the lock on but she was ok with taking it unlocked to the range so the kid could shoot it.

Right.

Also, she "wasn't comfortable" putting the lock on but she was ok with buying a gun for a kid that wasn't old enough to own one.

Prison is going to be very hard on her.

She testified that she entrusted her husband with securing the firearm. However, she admitted under cross-examination that she did not trust her husband to get out of bed in the morning, mow the lawn to her liking or update her on his whereabouts.

LOL. Can't wait for his trial. Can they get Wapner?

Of course. It'll be like the Freddy Grey trial. She'll blame him in her trial and get acquitted, because the jury will blame the husband. Then he'll blame her in his trial and get acquitted, because his jury will blame her. Whereas, if they were tried together, that tactic wouldn't work - the jury would find at least one of them guilty. They'd have to find some other reason why their recklessness didn't make them legally culpable.

There was infidelity in the marriage according to the media, so they're tossing each other under the bus. Pretty vile.

They bought a handgun with the intention of bonding with their son.

Fine, send them all to jail.
