They have already endured 24 years of living hell after the murders of those 17-year-old Dothan students, shot in 1999 after being forced into their car’s trunk and found hours later in Ozark.
A mistrial would also affect McCraney’s family because Filmore probably would keep him locked up as he has been since his arrest.
