Why didn’t she just leave him I do feel sorry for her though.

Re: Whats Your Verdict?

Taking the life of another is against the law. If on the jury, I'd feel bound to uphold the law and convict. There's probably more to the story here, it doesnt seem right that she'd be acquitted, she should have at least been convicted of manslaughter.

Its not our job to judge. Its our job to uphold and follow laws. The judging - ie., who is deserving of death is the job of God/Allah. Some of those here are trying to take over His job!

What are you guys on for cryin out loud. She took a life. She killed a person. She is a murderer and she didn't kill in self defense either, nor did she do it in insanity. There is something called divorce for situations like this, not a bullet.

ah, but for some people the bullet is easier than divorce because our society makes life easier for a murderer than for a divorcee.

This is a strange story, if you want to read in detail.
http://www.crimelibrary.com/notorious_murders/family/yvonne_chevallier/index.html

Briefly,

Yvone a nurse falls in love with medial student Chevallier, they get married and have two children. Chevallier is handsome, social and respected for services he rendered during French resistance of German occupation. Yvone is an ordinary house wife without much charm.

Chevallier has an affair with a beautiful young woman (who happens to be married too). Yvone begs Chevallier to stop the affair and save their marriage, Chevallier says she disgusts her and he is not ineterested in her. Yvone shots dead Chevallier.

She is tried and jury acquits her.

My question: If you were in the jury what would be your verdict?

It doesnt matter how they were physically or socially.If the guy married her and vowed to be there for"in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer" He should have been man enough to stand by that. If he thought that the marriage was doomed, he should have gone through the proper channel and called it quits and then moved on to another person.

This however does not mean that Im condoning what the woman did(commit murder). To me personally she simply handed her life over to a lost cause...and commited the biggest sin. She should have thought more of her own self and less of the hurt that was caused to her.Life sure isnt fair all the time.

I dont know if it was a crime of passion or crime that was thought of in detail and was preplanned.She did the wrong thing and should be punished for what she did. If emotions were to rule what we do …and if such a grotesque action was not punished then every other spouse is going to take the law into their own hands and then plea that it was a crime of passion or whatever. Life happens humans need to deal with it and move on.
