Not Guilty

Why is Jill Maeghers killer pleading guilty to rape and not to murder?

I dont understand.

It would be his defence lawyer. Looking for an angle

Why would a Wookiee, an 8-foot-tall Wookiee, want to live on Endor, with a bunch of 2-foot-tall Ewoks? That does not make sense! But more important, you have to ask yourself: What does this have to do with this case? Nothing. Ladies and gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case! It does not make sense! Look at me. I'm a lawyer defending a major record company, and I'm talkin' about Chewbacca! Does that make sense? Ladies and gentlemen, I am not making any sense! None of this makes sense! And so you have to remember, when you're in that jury room deliberatin' and conjugatin' the Emancipation Proclamation, does it make sense? No! Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, it does not make sense! If Chewbacca lives on Endor, you must acquit! The defense rests.

I think it's horseshit that this arsehole can admit to the rape and murder of Jill Meagher and tell the police where to find her body, and then plead guilty to rape, but not guilty to her murder.

Tell me, if Bayley raped her but didn't kill her, who did? And how did Bayley know where to find the body? The defence is in dire straits if it seriously considers that logic.

The positive in this is by pleading not guilty and going through a trial 'should' ensure this waste of space is never released from prison. Had he gone a plea bargain he may of had the opportunity for parole one day, now though we can only hope he's locked up and key thrown away.

Strange things happen when cases go to trial. Finding an impartial jury may be difficult though

Yeah good point, his name was all over social media before the courts allowed it to be released so his lawyers may use that to their advantage.

Same reason the papers aren't allowing comments on that case I assumed?

I thought if a matter was before the courts it was out of bounds.

He is pleading not guilty to MURDER...which would indicate his intentions was not to kill her. I think you'd find he would plead guilty to MANSLAUGHTER though...

for the record I do not agree with it so don't attack me

Growing up I once asked the old man what the difference between murder and manslaughter was.

His answer; a good lawyer. On the money I reckon.
