Byron Scherf originally told police he wanted to die for killing Jayme Biendl, but now plans to appeal his death sentence - a process that can be as nearly painful as the trial itself. The family of Genie Harshfield, who was murdered in 1996, knows this all too well. Since her death, her family has endured three appeals by her killer, so Genie's mother knows the long road ahead for Biendl's family. The average wait time for a death row inmate is 13 years.

There are some tests in life that you want to pass. "Honestly, those were the longest two weeks in the world waiting to get those test results back," recalled Anna Kuwada. For Kuwada, this was not one of them. Because she knew that all the preparation in the world wouldn't make a difference. "You just feel like a ticking time bomb."
