I have seen cases where the verdict doesn’t seem to match the under oath answers in voir dire. An example is a person not believing in the death penalty but doing voir dire it is typically asked if a person can “consider” the full range of punishment. I didn’t know that the state could appeal a punishment.

All in all the district is deep and top 5 teams are really good.

Funny to chirp about stats and then get offended about the worst kept secret in SETX. Tigee ruffled a lot of feathers because some of the Jefferson County boys stopped and went to school at HF before they got deeper into Chambers County. But 900 is a heckuva accomplishment for sure and Sutherland is a hall of fame coach with or without the Beaumont kids. And speaking of stats, looked like most of Winnie had that one on t shirts after game. And don’t mistake that as begrudgingly. Aren’t many guys in the country who have hit that number. And I’m not sure how old Todd is exactly but he looks great. I would think that speedometer could flip a few more times before it’s all said and done. Good luck to the Bucs in the playoffs. Barring a really deep run for BOTH teams, should be pulling for the guys in green every round too.

I would have thought they would have been voir dired on the range of punishment though. As you know, you can do that without discussing the priors. But maybe they decided not to for that reason. In any event, seems like an automatic remand on punishment. But maybe the DA’s office lets it go and they go with the 10 years. Honestly from what I’ve read re: the facts of the case (I know that’s a dangerous way to base opinions), 10 years might be a just sentence in this case. 25 to life seems a bit harsh for recklessness but I also realize the point of having the habitual statute and sounds like the guy was well past felony number 3.
