You'd be hella up in arms if you were on trial for something and someone lied like that. We all would be.

But thanks for the inflamatory speech Nancy Grace.
This just shows haw crappy her lawyers must have been, to not catch this during the trial. IMO, there is no harm in re-trying, but we have to have some kind of finality in our judicial system, you cannot bring everything back to court over false statements. It is up to the defense to catch those during the trial. Her lawyers dropped the ball, big time.

There are some lawyers on here... Rudey, aren't you a lawyer? I know there are more. Shouldn't they have caught this during the trial? What is the deal here?
