A judge in Juneau , Alaska , dismissed all charges against Rachelle Waterman in connection with her mother 's murder at a hearing Tuesday , saying testimony at the honor student 's trial earlier this year cast serious doubts about the reliability of incriminating statements the girl made during a police interrogation.Superior Court Judge Patricia Collins , who presided over the trial , which ended in a hung jury on Feb. 14 , said new information emerging at the proceeding suggested that the then-16-year-old Waterman may have been coerced by police into admitting more involvement in the murder plot than she actually had.Collins ruled that the statements were inadmissible as evidence and said that because they were " the centerpiece " of the prosecution case , she had no choice but to dismiss the indictment.At the morning hearing , Collins told stunned prosecutor Stephen West , the district attorney of Ketchikan , that he had until 4 p.m. to file new charges against Waterman or she would be released . His hand been the hand of a child , preparing a puny blow ; but what was this other horrific hand that was drawn back to strike in the same place ? Most importantly , you should expect class discussion often to follow your interests and concerns as you voice them . She still seeks grief counseling , takes antidepressants and puts on a good face for her children and grandchildren , but " the bubble , the joy , the everything has just been sucked out of me . " West asked Nelson if Arrant had red hair and she nodded.Kelly Carlson , a former boyfriend of the defendant , says Waterman complained about her mother but not seriously.On cross-examination , Nelson acknowledged that Waterman told them she was phoning " Red " to ask him to download movies for the group.Two ex-boyfriends of Waterman also took the stand .
