The other eleven chose a plea agreement but Rosemarie went to trial and was found guilty after the jury deliberated for 8 minutes. [img]http://www.mickeyz.net/images/davidatgrammas_thumb.jpg[/img] Rosemarie with her grandson David The Vermont Supreme Court is hearing the appeal of the conviction on Sep 8, if the appeal is won it's a retrial, if not, she'll most likely go to prison. If you feel like helping you could write a letter to the editor at the Bennington Banner: nhoffenberg@benningtonbanner.com . "Very brief letters in support of me would help a lot," Rosemarie says. "Just short letters of support so that the community would be reminded that the war is still going on." (Please include full name, address, city, state, zip, telephone, e-mail address on all correspondence - letters to the editor will not be printed unless verification information is provided) And if you think of any other ways to help, twould be great too. Thanks, Owen -- If I were a millionaire I'd buy every carthorse in Ireland and wait. The day is coming when a carthorse will be worth more than a Porsche.
