There have been some more developments in the trial of Lori Drew.

First, a judge deferred ruling on a motion to dismiss the charges. The trial is expected to take place on November 18th.

In another development, Lori Drew waived her right to a jury trial, opting instead for the trial to be decided by a judge.

I don’t blame her for that one. A jury would weigh heavily on Megan Meier’s suicide and not the letter of the law. However the prosecution needs to agree for the trial to go to a judge and of course, they didn’t.
