It really is shocking to see that ICA's enjoyment over being the center of attention is far greater than any pain she feels for killing her daughter.
 
KC talking about when they read the charges again, she's going to cry in front of the jury. (I was able to read her lips, amazingly).

I did note the obvious display of the box of kleenex. these people. :sigh:
 
I need to know what day is opening statements because I have to call to schedule two MRI's and where I have to go to get these MRI's is 55 miles away from me. I will not miss opening statements!
 
I'm not too worried about the juror staying in the SA is trying so hard to strike. I also didn't get the impression she was all that intellectually challenged. I haven't been able to follow every minute of this, so am not on top of which juror is which, but I saw quite a few come on and be asked basic questions they had difficulty answering.

IMO, these PJs are just average people. They have been called in from their regular lives, been made to wait around for hours and/or days, finally get called into a courtroom with cameras, even if they aren't having their faces put out there, they are being recorded and put on TV. They are taking the stand and being questioned by a judge. They are being questioned by numerous attorneys. Some of these questions are personal. And all of this done in the presence of an alleged child murderer. I don't think we are seeing most of these people 'at their best'. IMO, it's going to be a rare person who is completely at ease in this kind of situation. I would be a nervous wreck.
 
IS pointing out how happy and jovial Casey is today, in comparison to the way she cried when the charges are read.

:giggle:
 
ICA should be removed from the court room when court is not in session. She needs to be reminded each and every minute she is the defendant.

I know, I know I have said this before but never have I seen a defendant remain in the court room and converse, smile, put her hand on her chin, laugh, chit chat. When the judge leaves the bench I do wish they would remove ICA.
 
darn - got a client call and missed the convo btw ICA and JB! grrr

(is there any way she can think the camera is NOT on her during this recess?? She is just so animated it's crazy!

hahahaha - AF leaning back in her chair .... "maybe if i play dead ICa wont talk to me"
 
well we know ICA won't be taking the stand...that has been ruled out. She will however possibly take the stand on sentencing. Does the State get to question her during that time?
 
the latest:

we are in a looooong recess waiting on the next group of jurors to get here...

Good Lord...where are they coming from? I thought the homeless shelter was in the next room?
