WELCOME!I'll take a stab at some of these questions.
1. The jury is only allowed to discuss the case once the case is finished and they're sent to deliberate. I guess one reason is that it's not good to speculate until all the information is presented by both sides.
2. They could just be exchanging pleasantries or general comments not related to the case.
3. Long story. The State wanted to use one of their pre-emptory strikes on her because she said she didn't want/like to judge others and, IMO, because she didn't seem up to handling all the forensic details. They had their mind made about her already so when they were up to bat, they asked her very few questions. When they tried to use the PS, the DT objected because it's illegal to use race (she's an African American) as a reason for a PS. The Judge agreed and rehabiliated her about whether she felt she was able to judge others and she said she could. So here she is.
4. I dunno.
5. Me too. I hate that they can't see her behavior in the Court when not in their presence.
Thank you for your reply. I am not going to really relax until I hear a GUILTY verdict for first degree murder. Poor caylee!
