I didn't expect a verdict in five minutes. We had three to four weeks of evidence. They had shown through their jury questions that they were very interested jury. They were paying attention. So we knew they were going to examine every piece of evidence carefully and not come to a decision in a hastily manner. Are you starting to think this could be a not guilty?

No, I never believed it could be a not guilty. I thought there was too much evidence to be not guilty. My fear was a hung jury.

As you can imagine, it's the culmination of, you know, seven years for me, almost eight years for the family of investigating this offense, another two years of preparing for trial. Then, you know, the trial in itself, just imagine the culmination of that and to come out with a guilty verdict. Obviously, it's what we wanted.

We think that brings justice to Abby and Libby and some peace to the family. And so it's just a huge weight off your shoulders.
