Regardless of how or why they asked the questions they did, Prosecution included, it gets the information out there. I heard it, you heard it, the jury heard it.
I would love Merritt to get on the stand, but I highly doubt he will lol
I do wonder if Sequieda's father will be testifying? I think Carmen, the secretary, will be, but I don't get the impression that the Dad will be, I wonder why not (he sounds like he might get heated a bit more than David Sequieda, who seems a bit laid back actually lol)
Could he be elderly and sickly now?
More than any other witness I hope Merritt takes the stand.
Whether he does or not the prosecutor is fully prepared to cross examine him if it does happen.
Although it doesnt happen often I thoroughly have enjoyed the trials of those who did.
It's a different game then and many things that may have been ruled inadmissible as too prejudicial will come in since he/she has given up his/her right not to testify.
It also greatly diminishes the appellate issues if the defendant testified in their own behalf and was convicted.
I know the state is hoping he will and he is narccistic enough he very well may testify.
It was the highlight of Daron Wint's recent trial to me. It helped seal his fate even more.
