Good Morning everyone. I see its business as usual. Both ICA and JB seem quite chipper this am, and brought their S-E Grins with them. Hope things wrap up today.
 
HJBP: Today is the last day jurors have been summoned. Going to have to let them know something today, they do not bring jurors in on Friday.
 
I have a question.. if you pay your DT $250.000 don't you think one of the people on that team could keep notes instead of ICA writing everything down. Just wondering.
 
soooo weird. nothing mentioned?? hmmm. anything on the dockets anywhere as far as motions??
 
Jurors in the jury room waiting, have to do something by noon, no jurors are called to come in on Friday in Pinellas Co.
 
just once i want to hear JP say they are excused cause they dont wanna serve on this matter
 
Are they talking about 4 who have not yet been interviewed, i.e. PT's? He keeps calling them jurors, I thought they lost 4 of those...:(
 
Excuse me but did yesterday not happen?????
 
What? No jurors on Friday? So I'm assuming no Saturday either. SO they have only today to finish the 11? *CONFUSED*
 
Today is the last day of juror availability, there are no jurors brought in on Friday. Have to decide what to do by noon. if they need to call more, there may be some available from other cases. JA has discrepancy of number of jurors left - he has 12, court has 11.
 
Recount of the Jurors/seats. JA had 12, not 11, on the SA's count.
 
Per Twitter M DeForest

#NancyGrace is in the courtroom today. Now she'll know the facts firsthand. #CaseyAnthony
 
This is so weird, I closed out all media windows and yet I can still hear it? I don't have anything open :(

I have had this same problem a couple of times...are you using the akai link?

Only way it was resolved for me was rebooting...
 
Here's an update to start the day:

Once the panel of a dozen jurors is sworn in, they are locked in place, and both sides will have to keep that panel for the duration of the six- to eight-week trial in Orlando unless one or more is replaced by an alternate.

Baez has one peremptory strike left, and prosecutors have three. There are roughly 11 potential jurors left to be questioned. Perry emphasized his desire to keep the jury selection process moving forward, saying opening statements would begin in Orlando at 9a.m. Monday if a jury is selected by Saturday.

WESH analyst Judge Eaton says if the defense runs out of peremptory challenges they can ask for more.

Released: Seat 57, #3025
Released: Seat 59, #3317
Released: Seat 62, #3340
Released: Seat 65, #3309
Those 4 individuals were there yesterday, but indicated they would not be paid. It would be a financial hardship. Seems the judge released them, but the attorney’s have the option of calling them back.

Just before court broke for lunch, Perry made it clear that he expected opening statements to begin Monday morning in his Orange County Courtroom.

But instead of powering through the afternoon, Baez was absent after lunch and Perry called the court to order for less than a minute before adjourning for the day.

Dismissed by the State 3283: Male, 42, single, never married, no children, 3 siblings, served as a juror once for insurance fraud. Have anyone in your family been accused of a crime? Juror: "I won't answer that in court". Parents still living - from Louisiana, Mississippi - they are still together

Dismissed by the State: 3238:Cosmetologist, said one of her husbands was struck by a car, and a decision had to be made to remove him from life support. Retired, does hair on the side. All her previous husbands died (yikes). She is currently engaged. She appears to be in her 50’s and has really big blonde hair. Seat #54

Dismissed by the State: #3042 "Honestly, I've been praying for her, the mother," said Juror 3042, a woman who appeared to be in her early 30s. "I feel bad about the whole situation."

Dismissed by the Defense: 3190: This juror appears to be in late 40's. Petite. Blonde pixie haircut. Says she's heard a little about the case. Feels if someone took a life – believes in the death penalty.This prospective juror owns her own small biz, plays tennis, watches Dancing with the Stars, CSI is married to a dentist who works in NY.

They have to make her feel in control or she might blow a gasket in court. lol
 
JB told Nancy Grace today that the recess yesterday was a private matter. Would not disclose what that was.
