His lawyers have adopted a "risky" defense argument (adverse reaction to a diabetic medication) but we will see. I just hope you don't get inundated with sympathetic and empathetic email responses like I did (and still am receiving) when I asked a similar question about Scott Peterson. In my nearly 10 years of being involved in Internet discussions I don't think I have ever encountered an Internet poster quite like Mary Beth. QED
