April 21, 2008, 1PM Jury Selection
April 22, 2008, 930AM Trial By Jury Begins. NO JUSTICE FOR OUR PRECIOUS JESSICA NOEL
After four grueling days at the Hall of Injustice we have not received any Justice for Our Precious Jessica Noel.
On April 24, 2008, after closing arguments (Mr. Doll, Commonwealth Prosecutor did an excellent job with the State’s closing argument), the Jurors took only TWO hours to come back with their atrocious and shocking verdicts. (My guess is they were tired and ready to go home??)
Colbert – No Murder or Manslaughter – but Reckless Driving, DUI (.20 -.25), and driving on a revoked license (revoked from Florida for ten months). Colbert’s Attorney hired at the taxpayer’s expense a Crash Analysis Expert. (The Commonwealth chose not to hire a Crash Analysis Expert – at our first meeting the Commonwealth was concerned about having to do so (my only conclusion is they did not want to spend the dollars to do so). Colbert served ONLY 16 months for the Murder of our Precious Jessica Noel. The Community has now once again been placed in danger as he now has an opportunity and is likely to Drink, Drive, and Injure, Maim or Murder again while under the influence.
Roberts – No Murder but Guilty of Manslaughter II, and DUI (.19)
THERE IS NO JUSTICE FOR VICTIMS MURDERED BY DRUNK DRIVERS.
April 28, 2008, NO JUSTICE FOR OUR PRECIOUS JESSICA NOEL MURDERED BY DRUNK DRIVERS IN KENTUCKY
Monday, April 28, 2008, despite all our efforts the Penalty Phase did not go well. The Jurors came back with a recommended sentence of 7 ½ years, Manslaughter II – eligible for parole after 20% of sentence is served.
I can assure you we will not let Our Precious Jessica Noel down and will appear at every Parole Hearing with our Victim Impact Statement.
We will be receiving from the Prosecutors Office a form which can be filled out, and letters can be attached as to why we feel the Judge should IMPOSE THE MAXIMUM of 10 years. Please contact me by email and I can forward the form to you. We would greatly appreciate if you can complete the form and if you wish to attach a letter be sent to The Honorable Judge Martin McDonald. We can only pray and hope that Judge McDonald will take the forms, letters, and Our Victim Impact Statement into consideration when Formal Sentencing is announced. These forms and letters are sent to the Correction Facility and available to the Parole Board.
May 7, 2008, 3:00PM Met with Mr. Hutchison, Frank Doll, and Nichole Frame.
May 12, 2008, Motion Hour - Mr. Drabenstadt to withdraw as council for Roberts (Murderer).
Formal Sentencing -- July 2, 2008, 9:30 a.m. Court Room 801 Judge McDonald
Again we ask for any and all Support for Our Precious Jessica Noel and the Safety of the Community.
For all the support and Prayers for Our Precious Jessica Noel and family we sincerely thank you.
July 2, 2008 Formal Sentencing -- 9:30 a.m. Court Room 801 Judge McDonald

BUTTERFLY GARDEN POEMby Jack Bahm
Now there's a place in the city
Over near the zoo
For walking and thinking and dreaming
As we sometimes do.
With paths and shrubs and flowers
and clouds and clean fresh air.
And multi-colorer butterflies
To raise our spirits there.
This special new memorial
Where hearts and minds can mend
Will be a place of refuge dear
for all Compassionate Friends. |

May 2007, Ashley Miller and I visited Our Precious Jessica Noel. While there the most beautiful, lavender, petite butterfly landed on my purse, and then rested on my finger. This tender butterfly stayed with us as we walked to the car and gently flew out of the car window (the butterfly stayed with us for at least 10-15 minutes) 
March 18, 2008, Our adored Jenifer was scheduled for her second colonoscopy. Jenifer had a colonoscopy in September 2007, showing abnormalities. Dr. Stephens came out to advise the cononoscopy, performed 3/18/08, came back with no abnormalities. The procedure was performed at Kosair Hospital, and before entering the Admissions Room, they always have a White Board to welcome the patients being seen that day. Jenifer name was listed and Jessica was written next to Jenifer's name. When seeing this, I felt some calmness. As this affirms that my Precious Jessica Noel is Always watching over her baby sister.
