The Bobby Cutts, Jr. Poll- keep

The people have spoken out against Bobby Cutts; maybe we should send this poll to his attorneys.

Not that it would make a very big difference, since regardless of the crime or outcome, if they can drag it out even more; it means they make more money.

Has nothing to do with justice being served, it’s all about… Show me the money!!!
Anyway,

Here are the results from his poll

He should get a new trial only 21%
He does not deserve a new trial 40%
He should have been given the death penalty 69%
It was only an accident theory 9%

There were a total of 220 votes on this poll.

Do you remember the post on Bobby Cutts? X-Police Officer convicted of murder X2

Do you remember the post on Bobby Cutts?



Well if not, let me refresh your memory. Bobby Cutts Jr., was a police officer and he was sentenced to life in prison for killing his pregnant lover and the fetus.




Now the Defense is requesting a new trial because they claim the jury handed down contradictory verdicts.

Cutts filed the appeal on Friday. Cutts, 31, was convicted in February.
Cutts continued to work for the police department as thousands were out looking for Jessie Davis. Cutts denied knowing anything about her disappearance while everyone was out looking for her.

It was during this time that a friend of Cutts came into the picture and said he helped Cutts dispose of the body after he called her and asked for help.

*** Now that’s a true friend. Help dispose of the body of the person you just murdered.

Now the defense wants to claim the jury handed down contradictory verdicts in this case. This came from the fact that the jury found Cutts guilty of aggravated murder in the death of the fetus and a lesser charge for the death of Davis.

The filing argues that convicting Cutts of murder in Davis' death and aggravated murder in the fetus' death was inconsistent because both deaths were the result of the same act. Yet he still murdered two people.

The defense also claims the jury lost its way and created a manifest of miscarriage of justice and they think the conviction should be reversed and a new trial ordered.

Cutts' attorneys also argue that the judge presiding over the trial should have allowed jurors to consider an involuntary manslaughter conviction because no witnesses contradicted Cutts' claim that he did not purposely kill Davis. Cutts testified that he accidentally hit Davis in the throat with his elbow during an argument and that he dumped her body in a panic.

Among other issues, Cutts' attorneys also say the trial should have been held outside Stark County, where the crime was committed, because intense media coverage made it difficult to find an impartial jury.

Then the defense wants a change of venue. The defense claims in the appeal that members of the jury helped search for Davis’ body and seen the media reports about the death and the defense claims the jury was tainted and had already convicted Cutts before the trial started.

The State said they were not surprised that these issues came up in appeal, since most of them were also addressed during trial.

I hope that Bobby Cutts, Jr. gets a new trial.

This time, hopefully the prosecution will elect to seek the death penalty and he will be put to death for murdering his lover and un-born baby.

X Police Officer Bobby Cutts, Jr. now convicted murder X 2

X Police Officer Bobby Cutts, Jr. now convicted murder X 2.

Bobby Cutts, Jr., 30, went from police officer to convicted murderer as the jury read the guilty verdict to the courts. Now Cutts could face the death penalty.

As Cutts cried in court he claimed he accidently killed Jessie Davis by putting an elbow to her throat and then he said he panicked. The jury found him guilty of a lesser charge of murder in Davis’ death since there was not prior calculation.

However he was convicted of aggravated murder in the death of the nearly full term female fetus which does carry the possible death penalty. In addition to the murder charges Cutts has also been convicted of abuse of a corpse, burglary and child endangering.

Prior to the Trial

Thousands of people searched for Jessie Davis.
Cutts continued to work for the police department
Cutts denied knowing anything about the disappearance of Jessie Davis
Their son, Blake, gave investigators the firs clues in the case when he said mommy is crying, mommy broke the table, mommy is in the rug and daddy is mad.
Cutts eventually gave in and led the investigators to her body. Cutts lead investigators to a park about 20 miles away from her home. Davis was found wrapped in a comforter.

During the trial

The Defense

Was quick to ask the Judge to declare a mistrial. The defense based the mistrial motion on the fact there were two different verdicts on the two counts.

*** The Judge rejected that request and said the allegations involved separate individuals; Davis and the fetus.

Cutts cried during the trial and said he accidently killed Davis. He said he was leaving the house and she did not want him to go and then he said he panicked.
His attorneys said his actions in dumping the body and leaving the little boy alone didn't prove he intended to kill Davis.

"Does that cause you to feel that he's a liar and a cheat and he's going to lie about everything else?" the defense asked during his closing argument Tuesday. "None of that will tell you whether aggravated murder was committed on the morning of June 14th."

Well yeah I think it does make me think he is a liar and cheat about everything else. Why would I believe he wanted to be honest now? Cutts started off lying when he denied he knew anything about her disappearance even though he invited a witness to know about the crime and how he done it and were he dumped the body.

The defense also stressed that there was no forensic evidence linking Cutts to the death and that a medical examiner couldn't determine how Davis died because of decomposition from nine days of exposure in the summer heat. Cutts went to wash his truck right after he dropped off the body. See what the prosecutor had to say below.
Seems to me the defense may be missing a slight detail, Cutts said he accidently killed Davis

The Prosecution

The prosecutor told the jury that Cutts' story made no sense and said a police officer wouldn't hide a body unless he was covering up a criminal act. He noted Cutts' testimony that he sprayed down his truck after getting rid of Davis' body because of bugs on his windshield.

"Is that reasonable?" the prosecutor asked. "Or is it more reasonable to think that he stopped and washed that truck to get rid of trace evidence?"

The prosecution's key witness was Cutts longtime friend, Myisha Ferrell. What could a friend testify too in a murder case you ask?

Well according to her testimony she said under oath that Cutts’ picked her up the morning of June 14th with Davis’ body in the back of the truck. She also testified on the 20 mile trip to drop the body off Cutts held up his right arm to demonstrate how he killed her.

My thoughts

Now here is the part that really makes no sense. If you are a law enforcement officer and you murder someone, who do you call? First why would you call anyone?
That could only possible leave evidence against you in trial as presented in this case.

Obviously Cutts was in a panic and forgot simple investigation used by police.
If you wanted to make the jury believe he only dumped the body why would he demonstrate how his killed her?

Maybe he was hopeful Myisha Ferrell would become as panicked as he was and forget what he told her.

Not that I have ever thought about murdering someone, but I think If I were to ever consider murdering someone (or committing any crime), I think the last thing I would do is to invite a friend along for the ride and body disposal. What was he thinking? He really must have panicked.

If this friend Myisha Ferrell knew the location of the body why did the prosecution have to wait for Cutts to give in and lead them to the body?

I wonder if Myisha Ferrell is facing any charges in connection with this case.
