Pronunciation: Speak MethodWATCH VIDEO There is a real world murder trial going on in the Orange County courthouse in Orlando, Florida. The state argues that a twenty-five year old mother is guilty of murdering her two year old daughter. Prosecutors have built a strong circumstantial case, according to legal experts, but the defense argues that this dark-haired, unmarried mother is simply guilty of making ignorant mistakes after the accidental drowning of her daughter three years ago. |
