One thing's for sure — at least some of these jurors are paying attention to every detail of testimony (and retaining it).

Juror question: Could you demonstrate your theory of non-incapacitation on the defendant? :angel:

That's been my concern as well. We're getting so far into the weeds with the psychological back and forth that it may confuse a juror. Hopefully, there won't be one who — if they don't completely buy BPD — thinks they should vote not guilty on M1. It's becoming a larger issue than it...

Qs for this guy: How many autopsies have you performed? How many brain sections have you taken during an autopsy? What caliber bullets were fired in your cases and from what range? What caliber bullet was used to shoot TA and from what range? Would a period of decomposition reduce the ability to...

A much more pleasant way to be lulled to sleep: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=wSFB2ytWJLQ

Arias looks very worried and nervous. Fantastic.

Not only handle him, but if past cross-exams are any indication, discredit him and turn him into yet another plus for the state.

Yes. The jurors are to return at 9:30 tomorrow for a short day. Then no court until next Wednesday. She said the jurors will stay there Wed. until the case is done, even if it's past normal quitting time. Next Thursday, she will instruct the jury, and then the attorneys will begin closing...

Nurmi asks if a shelf were dislodged, whether it could have simply been put back in place. So is he seriously suggesting that perhaps JA dislodged the shelf and took the time to put it (and its contents) back neatly in place, but left all the other mess in the house? And if so, wouldn't that...

It happens sometimes when the server's a bit overloaded. If you refresh, it will eventually show.

Grandma sounds like she has COPD or pneumonia. Hope being there won't be too taxing for her.

I don't know how much clearer it could be that JA became nothing more than a booty call to TA, a means of indulging in some sexual fantasies. Beyond that, he had no use for her once he had her number. She didn't like it, stalked him, premeditatedly killed him and concocted one grand lie after...

So, I happened upon a set of wireless headphones on clearance a couple weeks ago and ordered them. They weren't for listening to this case, but I hooked them up today and have been able to make spaghetti sauce, do some cleaning, go all over the house and even out on the deck without missing...

We have multiple cats and call that "doing the laundry" around here. :D

With so few jury questions, hopefully they can sort through them during the break and get them asked before the end of the day.

It would appear these "efforts to avoid real or imagined abandonment" also sound quite stalkerish.

At the very least, the jury is gonna know by the line of questioning and multiple objections that there is something bad and very stalker-ish that the defense doesn't want in.

Door opened. Truck idling. Hope the judge lets him drive through.

I expect to see more of this as the trial winds down. Even if it prompts an objection and has to be withdrawn, it's a way for the jury to hear what you want them to hear. Slipping it in via an answer by a witness makes it seem more legitimate to the jury. But DeMarte is keenly aware of what...

He objects when he actually needs to, when it's a significant issue. I think it's actually better to hold off on the objections when possible when you have a witness as capable as DeMarte is of handling it on her own. Much more effective for her to shut JW down than for JM to do it through...
