I'm confused about what the foreperson testified to at the most recent hearing, wasn't it that the 2 count indictment wasn't voted on by the 12? (I think the view was well they voted on the substance so that's good enough?)

I see that now. Because the general law has a ton to say about Mississippi's Uniform Health-Care Decisions Act?
Even Swift recognized that statutes were state law.
Okay, everyone reading this who is into this stuff (niche group) I highly recommend Ed Purcell's Litigation & Inequality.
