2011.05.20 Jury Selection DAY ELEVEN (Afternoon Session)

[TigerBalm]

Don't get too excited about this PJ, the state has info on her record from my memory.

 

[MelissaLee]

PJ says hubby asked a bunch of questions but she didn't think she was allowed to tell him anything so she told him she can't speak with him about anything. Hubby had to give up tv as well since she told him it can't be on around her. Very cute!

 

[Miziree]

JB "Most of my questions have already been asked". Again.

I would think this is a good thing? :waitasec: I would WANT to go second....why would he not want to go second?

 

[Anais]

Well I'm thinking the SA might strike Casey's 25 yr. old mind melt guy, I would

OT - If my dog keeps eyeballin my patty melt sammich and making me feel guilty, I'm going to hold her in contempt!

OH yummy, pass one over here please................

 

[atthelake]

I do hope that the SA brings up you can't do an AMBER alert after 31 days and w/o having tag/info on suspect. GA has been going off on this since the beginning.......and don't want defense *tainting* with that!

[bobloblaw]

ya'll, I am supposed to be at the school picking up my son..

I just sent him a text msg, telling him ill be 5 or 10 minutes late..

shame on me, but thank the stars he is 13 and said he would help in the school office until I get there...

i got to leave this house in 3 minutes....cmon, lets get this jury sworn in......


by yall see yall in a bit

I'd go now, if you're quick you won't miss anything. They will have a resess before the swearing starts.

 

[kathyn2]

This lady is lying and wants on the jury. Her husband is a huge news junkie and watches the news constantly but he never mentioned this huge case?? And she never heard much??? I just don't believe that. I hope she is stricken.

 

[21merc7]

Horse cart

 

[SurfieTX]

Here comes the decider - the DP talk.

 

[MelissaLee]

I would think this is a good thing? :waitasec: I would WANT to go second....why would he not want to go second?

My guess is he either dislikes his thunder being stolen (lol) or doesn't want the PJs thinking the SA is smarter than he is. I just see a pre-teen saying "Hey, I was gonna say that!" and pouting.

 

[Amster]

I just don't get it. Why all the happiness and chuckling?? On the part of JB and the PJ?

 

[Chiquita71]

MG: come across local media?

no

JB: you husband is a bay news nine junkie and you are not?

I am not, if he has that one we are out doing other things?

JB: how has it been that he does not know but he knows.

We went to dinner and the radio came on and I turned it off and this morning he could not watch tv.

JB: did you share with your experience?

I didn't think I was allowed to, but I didn't talk about it.

(oh what does this have to do with...) ?

I can be firm and tell him I can not talk about it.

JB: we have little doubt in that. you have read articles maybe in st pete times?

nothing comes to my mind only the search was on and the amber alert and things, back then did I look for an amber alert. not something that stayed in my mind.

JB: you said the media has not affected your opinion?

I don't always believe the media, as a personal experience...(IMHO: Jose got her to talk.... ullhair:

She is talking about the media and the ratings. What you get is not always what has happened.

JB: I have no more questions but more later on.

What? Why more from Jose? When, Why? AGGGGG.

HHJP: is giving horse before the horse ( ha ha I meant CART, cart it is- the horse before the cart... :doh: Too bad I haven't heard that enough to remember how it goes? ) and I am going to rest my hands for the swearing in that I HOPE is going to happen TODAY.

Last Call Horse Cart!

 

[RR0004]

This juror seems just a bit too perfect. JMHO

 

[4realtho]

Huh? Am I the only one that has no idea what this dude is getting at? Maybe I do, I just don't know why.

I wonder why JB did the questioning and not CM. :waitasec:

 

[nachomama]

Here we go with the horse & cart or as like I call it the Bass Ackwards questions

 

[Lera213]

Last Call Horse Cart!

No AF will have the last one

 

[Blue Jackets fan]

We do our best to PM for egregious or repeated violations Blue, but when the threads are moving this fast we don't always have time. If you notice a post missing & really don't know why, feel free to PM a mod! :blowkiss:

Ok thanks.
