We'll have to wait until Wednesday to hear how Yani Leppanen's defense attorney attempts to explain to an Inglewood jury how her client was trying to uncover crimes while engaging in a provocative chat with a teenage girl, who he arranged to meet. That's when he found out the 13-year-old was actually a couple of middle-age Redondo Beach detectives.

Closings were scheduled for today, but a juror couldn't make it. We'll keep you posted, at the very least, on the verdict.
