But the judge declared a mistrial on January 13, 1994, after jurors could not agree on a manslaughter or first-degree sentence. The brothers’ second trial was not televised and ended with a conviction of both Menendez’s for murder in the first-degree and two consecutive life-in-prison terms 1 Like

Landmark cases right there. All these are just mere mortal cases. The Most Publicized case that everyone of us is gonna witness will be when we Stand before the ANCIENT of THE DAYS, The KING of Kings , The SUPREME BEING OF HEAVEN, JESUS CHRIST. There will be no need for any Expert Barrister or Room for Denial as your Records will be Played right before you. All the things that were done in the Dark will be brought to the Open. What you will Hear to is PROCEED or DEPART! It will not Matter whether you Believe GOD or not! You MUST stand before HIM. Tears and Plea for Mercy will be rebuffed as Mercy is Expired over there. Now is the time to Ensure you are not told to Depart! Now is the time to Repent from all sins and Surrender to JESUS Christ. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment |

MY Personal favourite Ted Bundy, Bundy’s trial holds the distinction of being the first to be televised nationally. Dubbed the Chi Omega murder case because of his brutal attacks on four of the Florida State University sorority’s members, it was covered by 250 reporters from five continents in 1979. Bundy, who later confessed to committing at least 30 homicides from 1974-1978, was convicted of three death sentences in two separate trials and executed in the electric chair in 1989.Not to forget he proposed in court
