It is about time that this scum bag get's to court. Instead of plea bargans we need to let jury decide on all cases like this. I feel for Ms. Thompson and all she has gone through. We to stop plea bargans and start giving all scum bags like this the death sentence and do away with appeals. I hoe Ms. Thompsan reads this.

I have been following this story for several years now and can't believe that justice has not been served yet. The family of Somer Thompson should not have to wait this long. Hopefully something good will come out of this tomorrow. They should not have to wait almost a whole year for the trial to start. Jared needs to make the right decision and put an end to all this. My prayers go out for the family. God bless them all.
