Judge Mrazik has DENIED defense motion to delay sentencing. Sentencing remains Wednesday 5/13 which is Eric's birthday ♥. Defense had argued they had an attorney with a death in the family and needed more time to prepare for sentencing. Judge Mrazik denied the motion noting defense did not request a different date at the time of verdict, he gave them 2 months to prepare but they didn't request an extension until a month had already passed, and the victims right, esp the kids, to avoid further suffering supersedes the defense reasons. Kouri faces to 25-life or LWOP.
