2011.06.18 TRIAL Day Twenty-two (Morning Session Only)

[fifteen89]

Are we sure she didn't spit on her finger and place it there as she was poking her eye?

It's hard to tell what she's doing. When she uses the kleenex to apparently wipe away 'tears', it looks more like she's using the same motion you would when applying moisturizer.

Would be great to see Dr. G show up in the gallery.

 

[TiaM]

Is he saying he did over one thousand autopsies a year?

I want to see the records.

 

[BritsKate]

Cannot say manner of death

Okay, does not say anything Dr. G didn't

But Dr. G did rule on manner of death - homicide. They concur on cause of death - unknown.

JB tried to give CM a final question, which CM declined. Probably would have dug a deeper hole for ICA, which CM realized. IMO, MOO, etc.

Probably something that wasn't in his report. :wink:

 

[npcougar]

Last witness of the day. This one was the only one JB listed when HHJP asked what other witnesses they had today. That was in response to when HHJP said the other witness had to step down.

I have to say that I have disagreed with Dr. G all along. I think it is quite possible that the duct tape was put over Caylee´s face after death. Sorry to say it, but to keep body fluids from spilling.

Even in death, a body decomposes. It continues to decompose as long as there is any soft tissue to decompose. So even if she put the duct tape over the mouth and nose to contain fluids, it would STILL have been placed there while the body was decomposing.

Dr. S is bascially saying the duct tape was put on Caylee's skeletal skull, or it was never attached to the skull at all.

I think that's nonsense, personally.

 

[sparkysmom]

Good grief, that doctor needs to answer the questions and quit pontificating. He drones on and on.....

 

[Harmony 2]

Sooooo Kronk knew exactly the rare type of duct tape that the Anthonys had in their home and placed it on the skull?.... or he just coincidentally happened to own the same type of rare duct tape?GMAB

 

[little_miss_smart]

Suicide :maddening: does he undestand that Caylee was a baby?

 

[strawberry]

HLN showing smackdown

 

[passionflower]

Quote of the day......... rule out suicide

 

[Tiki]

Yup. Although women are more emotional. Women can handle much more in terms of emotional difficult things. I loved the title of that movie, it's my favorite movie in fact.

Mine, too. In addition, it contains a number of hilarious one-liners.

 

[momtective]

 

[Marple]

Every time someone types WS for Dr Spitz, I think they are saying WebSleuths... argghhh! I need more coffee.

 

[Sweetbaboo]

Perfect time for a 10 minute recess. Gives JA a little extra time to perfect his shredding of this witness. Moo

 

[D96s]

Duct tape, garbage bags (2), laundry bag, tossed in a garbage dump does not equal accident.

Its been testified to that NO STICKY STUFF or residue remained on that duct tape. If there was DNA (and I guessing there was), it long ago washed away and degarded away in all that water and all those elements.

Sorry - Dr. Spitz did not impress me.

It doesn't work, I've tried it.

I will watch cross, but I could not watch CM with this witness. I have a hard time understanding both of them.

Thanks all for the posting.

I second that. I just can't take the DT. Thanks so much for posting the blow-by-blow.

 

[pipkins]

...so he concludes that the cause of death is either accidental or homicide ...
