Cases similar to this one?

, sorry Deb! I just post these alerts as they come in.

I agree with you, Quentin Tellis does need to be removed from society permanently. Unfortunately, the death penalty in both Mississippi and Louisiana is: Lethal Injection. This type of execution would definetly be too good for the low life he is.

It’s unfortunate that crucifixion is no longer used.

On the original topic ...

> Does anyone know off hand of any other cases similar to Lizzie Borden's? Not any that deal with children or Jack the Ripper... I'm interested in studying others.

Well, depends on what kind of similarities you're looking for, I suppose. A weird comparison here, but Lizzie's case has always struck me as the O. J. Simpson murder case of that day. Some will disagree on some of these points, and admittedly some are overstated, but ... Both trials were media sensations. Both their defenders cynically used the media to bias the public. Both Lizzie and OJ were obviously guilty. Both should have been convicted based on the trial evidence. Both trials were administered by judges who skewed things toward the defense. Both defendants were acquitted by juries who chose to focus on who they were (Lizzie's gender; Simpson's race) rather than what they did. Both OJ and Lizzie were generally pariahs after their acquittals. If you're interested in the intersection of the judicial system, a sometimes reckless media, and popular prejudice, it might be worth a look.

Not to mention that memorable moment in Lizzie's trial, when one of the prosecutors accidentally allowed a bag to fall open and certain evidence to come into view prematurely, before he had even had a chance to mention it ... resulting in Lizzie suddenly and without warning coming face to face with her Daddy's skull and further resulting in Lizzie fainting for several minutes (some courtroom theatre by Lizzie, perhaps?) ... an episode which probably created sympathy for her in the jurors' minds. As prosecutorial screw-ups go, this ranks right up there with, "would you try the glove on please, Mister Simpson?"

And also, both cases make great nursery rhymes!

O. J. Simpson took a knife
Plunged it into his ex-wife.
When he saw what he had done
Then he butchered Ron Goldman!

Hi Phil 1963,

I have studied the OJ Simpson case and read a book written by one of his lawyers (can't remember the title or which lawyer, unfortunately) that detailed how he coached Simpson not to take his arthritis medication, thereby causing his knuckles to swell. He couldn't put on the glove over swollen knuckles.

Thank you for the suggestion! I'm onto other projects as I can get to them.

The trial had been set for June, but the daughter of one of the defense attorneys is sick and will undergo treatments, so the judge agreed to move the trial date. The new trial date is set for October 9th.

Tellis is currently imprisoned in the Mississippi State Penitentiary at Parchman on an unrelated burglary charge. He's also charged with murder in a 2016 stabbing death in Monroe, Louisiana.

The Oxygen channel is putting on a documentary exploring the murder of 19-year-old Jessica Chambers, and taking an inside look into the trial of Quinton Tellis, the local black man accused of murdering her.

Here is a link to the times this documentary will be shown: http://tinyurl.com/y92nncqc

I don’t get why the oxygen channel would be showing this documentary a week before Quinton Tellis’ second trial, which is scheduled to begin on September 24th. Won’t this documentary influence the people chosen for the jury in his trial?

I recently saw this posted in one of my groups on Facebook. I believe that people have already made up their minds as to whether he's guilty or not.

[twinsrwe]

I agree, Misty. Quinton's first trial ended in a mistrial. Prosecutor John Champion has been accused of pressuring a man facing a capital murder trial to testify that Chambers referred to Tellis as “Eric". Is Champion serious? What in the world is he thinking? I don't see how it is possible for Quinton Tellis to receive a fair trial. Social Media and now TV personnel have already convicted him. We think the Borden murders were handled badly, but I'm afraid Jessica Chambers' murder case is going to top the Borden case, hands down!
