Does anyone know why AL was upset? Was that first thing this morning before CC took the stand?
Oh, you would be surprised! I was copying and pasting tweets through the whole trial. I had to be careful to read every one because you would be surprised at the number of really horrible and hateful people out there. Just trolls waiting to be fed, so I figured maybe they would want a visitor!
Could you tell if AL looked at Carl Jr when he was giving his statement?
jstkiddn, was the other people in the courtroom able to see the pictures (other than jury, family, defense, prosecution, judge, etc)? Thanks in advance.

I swear yesterday he looked like Carl on Slingblade!!! hair the way hunched over a little and look on his face lol
He said he had an athletic body not skinny lol Pros said Athletic body, i bet ...
They showed the pictures on a projector screen which was faced away from the audience and toward the jury, lawyers, judge, etc. The back of the screen was facing the audience (which is where the family was sitting)....BUT - the images bled through the screen and depending where one was sitting, you could get a real eyeful (of course they were all reversed images because we were seeing back of the images......re: what was right side of body in the actual picture appeared to be left side to us). In some areas of the courtroom you could see them REALLY well. Too well. In other areas, you could see an outline and just make out some stuff. Naturally, that was only for the photos. When they would project documents, it was all backwards and you couldn't' make out anything other than it was writing.
Just my opinion...
AL and CL both said they met on Backpage and hooked up. Were together about 5 months prior to getting married. Started out as friends with benefits. They both say they love ea other even now. Grew into it.
Now, remember when VI1, 2 and 3 said about AL contacting CL ex husband and wanted $5000 for proof that CL was a prostitute online? Well looks like someone could have gotten their money worth with factual info there. NOT jmho, but lol testimony from court says fact.
The reporter tweets from the trial said Crystal said they met on Craigslist, AL said they met on Backpage.Just my opinion...

I'd like mimi to look back through her notes and see what she has, but I know Crystal said they met on CL and I'm pretty sure that AL stated the same thing today.
Just curious, is Backpage a part of craigslist? Like that swinger/sex/hooker portion....is "backpage" some sort of insider lingo for that section of the craigslist site? Or is it a completely different place.
I can assure you I have NO idea the workings of those places!! LOL
Medical examiner testimony:
I thought we were going to have a cage match on the cross exam. LOL
Y'all probably know all his testimony from the tweets and other reports, so I won't repeat it all, but there was one point in particular that got heated and James was wrong, wrong, wrong!!!! Second time he's done something like this during this trial. On cross exam he ADAMANTLY states that the witness just said something under direct that THEY DIDN'T SAY!!
In tv dramas (my only experience...lol) they always go back and reread the testimony, but either that's just made up or they aren't doing it in this trial.
When asked about the possibility of death by vagina suffocation (my term.....they actually used a medical term, but I have no clue at this point what it was) the doctor testified under direct that he had never encountered anything like that in his career, nor could he find anything in any medical journals, nor could he find anything when he did (this is important) INTERNET RESEARCH. That was the exact term he used...internet research.
On cross, James (all cocky like) asks him "Are you going to tell me that you Googled death by sitting on someone's face and there was nothing? He's holding up his cell phone like he's going to google it right then and there. The doctor testified that he never said he "Googled" it and this started a very contentious exchange between the two, where eventually the doctor himself was admonished by the judge. BUT - the doctor was saying, sort of amused like, "I used Medline...not Google." Apparently Medline is a search engine/database of medical journals/articles only used by medical professionals. It's *not* Google!
James kept saying "Yes, you did!" and I'm out in the audience about to explode thinking NO HE DIDN'T!! He *NEVER* said he "googled" anything. He said he did INTERNET RESEARCH and then later clarified it was Medline. All the while James keeps blustering about wanting to use his own cell phone to "google it right now".
It was never corrected and never clarified.
