2011.05.12 Jury Selection Day FOUR (Afternoon Session)

[marlame]

JP taking a break to double check what the law says about AF's questions?

That was my first thought when he mentioned a 10 minute break!

 

[KaylynnCouture]

please don't post 'juror removed' unless that's true. I get behind and don't know if they were or not.

People were posting "juror removed" because the judge took the juror off the stand to talk to the defense privately. Not because he was removed from the case.

I think by asking these questions the defense is putting thoughts into the heads of these jurors that they may not have had before. Like length of time on death row, cost to house a prisoner or "kill" a prisoner.... Almost as though they are trying to influence the jurors before the case about the death penalty and not as it relates to the law.

Yep, been saying that all day. Been very worried over here about what is going on. Bet these 2 jurors are let go, have to be.

and I missed it...why is this lady in red in the courtroom? I'm confused here

It would be nice if when asking the Jurors if they could follow the law, the DT would do the same....

 

[Blue Jackets fan]

Can't wait to watch Nancy Grace on this.

 

[Wise Old Owl]

What happened to juror number 1? Did they make a decision or is he in a holding pattern?

hes' been put through. Will be back for round 3.

He is not a seated juror as of yet. But he's through.

 

[Woe.be.gone]

so what's happened with Juror No. 2? The guy who was just on.

 

[gamom]

There are icons, see the smilies on the right when you go to post, click the [more button.

I know what you mean though. A quick one to hit without hitting Quote first would be nice.

 

[lowens1975]

I think KC has been given a sedative today. JMO

I think she needed one after yesterday.

 

[Tipstaff]

No objections from either side, will be returning tomorrow.

If today ever ends it will be a safe bet both defense and prosecution will review this juror's testimony once again before deciding.

Exactly-you sum it up so well Grandmaj, that is why JP does not approve of the questions.

 

[Blue_Dolphin308]

Juror number 2 was asked to step out while the judge scolded the DT.

 

[sleutherontheside]

Camera showing ICA ... :waitasec:

Playing "paralegal" again ...

Trying to look "important" like she is on the DT and NOT the defendant ...

If my paralegal had a desk like this I'd fire her.

 

[whiteangora]

As soon as this guy said "if someone harmed my family member, I would not follow the law and impose death" the defense wrote him off. Anyone that feels that strongly about love ones, won't understand a mother tossing her child away like garbage. moo

No offense, but I would be Very worried about someone that didn't feel that strongly about their family.

 

[ZsaZsa]

and I missed it...why is this lady in red in the courtroom? I'm confused here

There is a separate thread all about her- Rosalie Bolin..

 

[BigFatMommyDog]

... so just checking back in. Assuming AF up to nefarious questioning and we stopped? Ugh - groundhog day...

 

[QueenD]

New to this particular forum, not new to crime, WS's, or the casey anthony case. Just wanted to ask a simple question, what does ICA stand for, I get the second two, casey anthony, but what is the I for? Just curious.

I=Inmate

that is so when talking about her "ICA" and her mother "CA" you'll know who's who.

 

[Whome?]

Can't wait to watch Nancy Grace on this.

:giggle: Me either LOL !!!!

 

[gamom]

It would be nice if when asking the Jurors if they could follow the law, the DT would do the same....

The DT does not want someone who can follow the law. The law is going to say they can impose death because Caylee was a minor.
