2011.05.12 Jury Selection Day FOUR (Afternoon Session)

[Tipstaff]

So no potential jurors better say Nancy Grace that is now the standard for defense booting a potential juror.

 

[gngr~snap]

Hate to be dense, but did this guy REALLY say "yes sir" to Ann Finnell??? Or are you just joking?

I think I heard #2 & 3 say it. like they weren't sure what to say. Long hair or a skirt could fix that.
MOO

 

[wenwe4]

I must be missing something because I don't understand the relevance in the state asking the potential jurors if they have pets, and if they have ever had pets in the past.

Does anyone else know why this is so important?

(Thanks in advance, & I apologize if this has already been addressed)!

Cadavar sniffing dogs used in this case will be an issue later on . . . they want to see if anyone has a personal issue with that during the voir dire.

 

[itsjustme22]

Geesh, can Baez make an arguement succinctly? the man just drones on and on

 

[KaylynnCouture]

Baez will never be happy.

Unless ICA is found not guilty!

 

[rice09]

They will never find jurors who haven't seen any news coverage! JB is reaching. Pack up and go to Zumbabwe if he wants jurors who knows absolutely ZILCH!

 

[Whome?]

Ashton is bored

:floorlaugh::bang:

 

[TiaM]

I don't think I have ever heard 2 individuals have such a hard time getting from Point A to Point B as Baez and Mason. They take the scenic route.

It's as if they think the more words they spew out, the smarter they sound. They are wrong.

 

[wenwe4]

I thought for sure the DT would want this juror due to his feeling about the DP, in that he was not For it.

I don't know for sure, but maybe they are trying to see if this person has a desire to care for another live creature besides children or other family members if they don't have any family responsibilities.... I guess to see if they are nurturing.

 

[lib's mom]

Ashton is bored

I don't think he's bored. I think he's summing up every ounce of home training he ever had to fight the urge to throw that bottle of water at Jose's head. I feel his pain.

 

[Melanie]

So it's now Thursday night. Do we have 2 jurors? I assume this last dude will be excused.

MOO

Mel

 

[FaerieB]

I think I heard #2 & 3 say it. like they weren't sure what to say. Long hair or a skirt could fix that.
MOO

She's wearing a skirt!

OK but this guy knew quite a lot and also had formed an opinion that she is probably guilty. Not the same as being aware of a case.

 

[zoey]

how do these people ever feel if they have to call LE for some reason???? Why put them down???

 

[Tipstaff]

Make defense use one of their challenges please judge!! No free pass on this juror.

 

[Harmony 2]

Please refrain from making comments or remarks about the physical appearance of players in the case... Thank you...

 

[2goldfish]

I do think my darling juror number three did drop the ball on saying he would put more weight into a cop's statement solely because he was a cop. now I know we're talking good cops on this specific occasion but in general to that question I must say no I do not, there is corruption everywhere.

 

[Oakley]

Potential familiarity with dog handling maybe? (the cadaver dogs)

 

[mitzi]

Linda's eyes are glazed over...come to think of it...so are mine!:maddening:
