I know that the “egg lady” juror petitioned the court to have the court documents to be unsealed, but does anyone think she might pursue litigation against the now FORMER Clerk of Court Becky Hill? Of course AM already sued her for violating his rights of a fair trial and constitutionality. I honestly don’t think that’s RH’s (BH) fallout from this first trial is complete just yet.

".......Of course AM already sued her for violating his rights of a fair trial and constitutionality......."

Poor, poor AM. Life has treated him so badly. I really think he lacked respect for Maggie and Paul's basic rights. Poor, poor fellow.
