if it is not a guilty verdict, then the jurors are as crazy as he is

Jury reaches verdict in Kan. abortion slaying case

WICHITA, Kan. – Jurors have reached a verdict in the trial of a man accused of killing a Kansas abortion provider.

It took the jury just 37 minutes Friday to reach the verdict in confessed killer Scott Roeder's (ROH'-durs) trial. It was to be read late Friday morning.

Roeder has said he shot Dr. George Tiller on May 31 to protect unborn children.

His lawyers on Thursday failed to make a case for a lesser charge of voluntary manslaughter. The judge also refused to allow the jury to consider a second-degree murder conviction.

If convicted of first-degree murder, the 51-year-old faces a mandatory sentence of life imprisonment with the possibility of parole after 25 years.
