could see it was, then of course you would recharge and go forward. and then i agree with your point, if everything being what it is, he was going to get 60 years which is life if prison, why would you go through another lengthy, costly trial? i can t even imagine what this trial cost the taxpayers of jacksonville. the fact that we went through weekends, had a sequestered jury. they did three days of deliberations. you had overtime with the officers here. let me commend, first and foremost, the jacksonville court staff. the court administration, the sheriffs office bailiffs were phenomenal. i can at least tell you this, the taxpayers should be very proud of the money they spent for the courthouse system. they were wonderful. they bent over backwards. so, again, and to go back to your point, to retry count 1 for the sake of retrying it, the davis family should take into consideration, they have the right to talk to miss corey about that. at least i don t think that was a waste of what w
them. so i think tomorrow there s going to be two sets of families that are going to be grieving because of what happened here tonight. angela corey just said she does not think the zimmerman case had anything to do, or any influence on this case. what do you think? i don t know. i d love to get into the jurors minds. i d love to get into what was going on. i know you guys asked her about political statements and things like that. i think what i originally said in my press conference is you have to ask miss corey. i said i know what her answer is, and i expected her answer to be that. it is hard. you don t know what goes into factors. the fact that jury was back there deliberating again for over three straight days and we don t know what was being said. the fact that they didn t come back on a grand jury indictment. it was a lesser. and we don t know about count 1. and, again, if you look at one of the questions they asked, is self-defense for one self-defense for all? our positio
the defendant, dunn managed to repeat over and over again he was scared, he was terrified. they didn t counteract that with a more powerful motive and there was a more powerful motive. as for corey, the defense attorney saying in his news conference moments ago that i ve never seen signs of racism on the part of mr. dunn, guess what, he wrote a jailhouse letter saying the jails are full of blacks and all act like this is a quote, it may sound a bit radical, but if more people would arm themselves and kill these bleeping idiots when they re threatening you, eventually they ll take the hint and change their behavior. if that isn t a motive, i don t know what is and never got in front of the jury. it goes on and on. the fact he was at a wedding and drinking at the wedding, he initially lied on the interrogation tape and said he had one drink plus a toast. his girlfriend said he had at least three, maybe four rum and cokes. he was buzzed. it was an emotionally charged night. his son had
and say i do, but then again, they found him guilty so i have to look back and say, man, there s i wish i could have done something different, but to be honest, sitting here today, i have no earthly clue what i could have done different in this case. that 30-hour wait time, what was that like for mr. dunn? brutal. brutal. every time i talked to him, he s in this small box in the back by himself basically can t talk to anyone. it was brutal for us. i mean, basically my team and my investigative team and my team, the family, we were in a conference room and we were going stir crazy. i had to get up and walk the hallways because honestly, i would take a trial any day of the week, i would take a three-week trial, a four week murder trial and have zero ounces of stress. those 30 hours were probably the most stressful hours of my life. i cannot even imagine what mr. dunn was thinking because he was the one that was facing the verdict. all right. that is michael dunn defense attorney,
healy. again, at 60 years, i don t think miss corey is going to recharge it thinking i m going to tack on more time. i don t think that s going to be her mind sesemindset. i don t think that was her mindset in the beginning. you have to talk with the davis family and see if they want closure, want to go through another trial. see if 60 years is acceptable. again, if they recharge it, that s miss corey s discretion. she can recharge it and go forward. she has that right a as the state attorney. i agree if he was sentenced to 60 years and you assume he did not get his convictions overturned on appeal, you are looking at basically life in prison at 47 years old, you re right, that s a life sentence regardless of count 1. do you think it s a waste that she filed again, i don t want to speak on behalf of miss corey. you d have to talk to her. you did and she gave you her answer. again, you have to assume that if the conviction doesn t get overturned on appeal, you would think if we ha
