My partner-in-crime, David in TN, hinted the other day that one member of the gang that carjacked, kidnapped, beat, gang-raped, tortured and murdered Channon Christian and Chris Newsom on January 6-7, 2007, may get a(nother) retrial, but without specifying whom he was thinking of. And on July 1, two new Tennessee laws named after Christian and Newsom went into effect (see below).
 

New TN laws take effect on July 1st

Starting next week, several new laws will take effect in Tennessee. Some bills received a lot of attention in the legislature-- they range from protecting victims in trials to cutting down on meth. 6-27-14

(WBIR) Beginning on July 1st several new Tennessee laws will take effect.

Among the new laws is Governor Bill Haslam's anti-Meth law. It's one of the key pieces of legislation Governor Haslam supported this year. The new law limits the amount of pseudoephedrine people can buy to less than six grams a month. Pseudoephedrine is a key ingredient to make meth and lawmakers are hoping cutting down on sales of over-the-counter medications will help curb meth use.

Two laws in memory [sic] a Knoxville couple murdered in 2007 will also take effect. They're named after the victims, Channon Christian and Chris Newsom. The new laws aim to change the justice system. The Chris Newsom Act takes away the state's 13th juror rule, which requires a judge to sign a unanimous verdict. The Channon Christian Act prevents attorneys from bringing up allegations of a victim's past that are not related to the case [sic]

Yet another law is named after an East Tennessee victim. Amelia's Law allows judges to order offenders and parolees to wear a monitoring device if alcohol or drugs played a role in their crimes. The device tests blood for alcohol and drugs every 30 minutes on convicted criminals.

Finally, there's the law aimed at protecting unborn children. Under the new law, prosecutors could charge any mother caught abusing drugs while pregnant unless she seeks treatment.

The five known war criminals responsible for the violation and murders of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom. This was the only picture of the five handy. Two additional black rapist-killers were identified by DNA through semen they had left in Channon Christian's panties, but have yet to be named. Whoever put together this photo display did no research on the case, as attested to by his repeating the Internet hoax perpetrated by neo-Nazi/FBI informant Hal Turner, according to which the victims were sexually mutilated.

It was only speculation on my part and haven't seen any news about a possible retrial.

If any of the convictions is overturned, it will probably be Davidson's because of Baumgartner's actions. Since Davidson got the death penalty, judges will look for "something wrong."

Remember when Judge Blackwood overturned ALL FOUR convictions in 2011? Judge Kurtz reinstated them for Davidson and Cobbins. Coleman and Thomas still got retrials.

Months ago, Jamie Satterfield (who no longer replies to my emails) tweeted that the Channon Christian Act would be overturned by the Higher Courts.

Don't be surprised if Davidson is eventually retried or the sentence is reduced to "life without parole."
