2011.06.29 TRIAL Day Thirty-one (Morning Session)

[Kat]

This defense isn't about defending KC for the crimes she commited. This defense is trying to win by character assasination of defendant's father. JMHO

In the room, it seems true. “@amanda_houseman: I can't tell from watching online, but do you think George's emotions are true?

 

[icefun]

She's a busy little bee today.....love the note taking....bet she's sorry that she didn't put her hair in a bun.

 

[Soulmagent]

In a surprise move of legal excellence, Baez quickly jumps to the all-important, innocence-proving duct-taped gas can. Silence fills the room as the court awaits the next stunning bombshell.

:floorlaugh:

 

[KaylynnCouture]

I think Baez thinks he's doing a remarkable job..yet no one else is seeing it.

 

[kaRN]

I'm not a violent person but I'm telling you the things I imagine I could do at this moment...............
Sorry I just got here 5 minutes ago to hear GA asking JB to be more specific about allegations of child abuse, now to gas cans.
Maybe Caylee wasn't murdered. Maybe God just plucked her up to keep her innocent and safe and far far away from these horrible people. OMG I can't stop crying. Turning off the live feed now to read only....before I completely lose it.

JB: YOu were questioned about ever molesting your daughter by the prosecution?
No sir. Be more specific. When?
First day of trial.
You know that sex with a child has penalties.
Yes sir.
I never would do anything like that to my daughter.
My question is, you would never admit to it?
I would never do anything like that in that way.
Only in that way?

Do you remember our discussion about the gas cans? That is your gas can?
Yes sir.
And on june 24, 2008 that gas can was missing and you called the police?
Yes.
And you reported that gas can as stolen.
This and another gas can.
Is that the first time you ever reported a gas can stolen?
Yes.
Your daughter had used your gas cans many times before, yes?
I had asked her about it, yes. I had knowledge she used this gas can or another.
And do you recall you stated that there was a gas can shown in your depo that did not have duct tape.
I'll ask you again. When you gave police that gas can, did it have duct tape on it?
When?
August 8, 2008. The very first time they took those gas cans. Did that gas can have duct tape on it?
I don't remember. They took i from the shed, they took it.
That was after this alleged argument over the weekend?
That was alleged, it happened.
No one else can testify to this right?
Anyone else?
Myself, my daughter and God.
Anyone else you want to throw in there?

Objection.
Sustained.

JB: [from depo of August 5, 2009 ...] you were asked do you recall if it had duct tape and you answered, No there was no duct tape on the vent.
Yes if it's in my depo.
Do you recall with a photo of that gas can?
Yes.

Did you take the duct tape and take it off and put it on again?
No I did not do that.
And is it your testimony under oath ...
Baez stopped by objection. Everyone tries to find line in depo.
And is it your testimony under oath that piece of testimony was not on that can?
Your answer was, it was not on that can. It was not on that can.
Yes.
When police took the gas can, did it have duct tape on it?
Apparently it did from this photo.
[Baez trying to show a lie by GA.]

Shows depo to GA

 

[Wholehearted]

Can someone remind me why the gas can is the smoking gun? The duct tape? It "proves" George lied?!

Juror #4...Are you listening? #caseyanthony @kbelichwftv @vinniepolitan @insession @bobkealing @nancygraceHLN @CFCNews13 @jimLichenstein

 

[Drama Queen]

I hear the train a comin...it's coming round the bend...and I ain't seen a good man since...I don't know when. Well we stuck in tracks from JB...and I see exactly where it goes. But I hear the train a coming...on down to hell and gone!

 

[NoeticSoul]

Nice try JB. Nice way to try and block GA from the jury. Sneaky sneaky.

Interesting too that the jury wasn't gong to have that. They want to see George.

 

[sleutherontheside]

That's right....didn't it come out earlier in trial that there were different photos taken at different times?? jB was doing a bait and switch at that time.

 

[pinkfly]

GA is calm and very good at confronting JB’s disorganized questioning

 

[fifteen89]

i do wish ga would scream at him "i did not sexually abuse my daughter"

eta: "and she knows it."

 

[concentric]

gawd we go from molesting to gas cans???

IMO - JB is "gas lighting"

 

[curiositycat]

I can't think of anything more hurtful then what GA is going through. Your granddaughter dead at the hands of your daughter, and now her DT is trying to pin it on you. I am so grieved for him! Somewhere Caylee is reaching her arms out to JOJO, right now!

 

[liltexans]

Baez is pressing George about gas cans and whether or not duct tape was on it.

[whiteangora]

If Casey was ever gonna explode, today would be the day! She is seething.
I'm sure the jury is grateful to see all of the anger and hatred she is exhibiting.

 

[luckyme]

Oh my. We may have a verdict in one day.

I think there already is one!

 

[butwhatif?]

They need to take that gas can off the stand. It may end up getting thrown!

LOL...when JB just asked if he could approach GA, I was thinking "Do you really wanna do that?"

Maybe JB is hoping GA will flip out to make him look like the big bad abusive man the DT wants him to look like.
