VERDICT WATCH Closing Arguments- Chase Merritt Charged W/Murder of Joseph, Summer, Gianni and Joe Jr McStay

She did great!!!! Fixed so much of the faulty testimony from the defense already. So happy she had a chance to get this in the juror's heads instead of that silly scenario laid out by Maline.

Nice indignation she is showing too, Go! Ms. Rodriguez

Thanks to all of you who stuck around for Day 2 of closing arguments. Glad I wasn't watching alone.

Melissa was worth waiting for.

She nailed them on the pure speculation. I loved how she played the tape of him saying it was about hiding accounts from Summer. What a .

I wish Law and Crime label the closing argument videos with numbers.

She nailed on the glass.

I think she just put a big pin in the defense balloon, and it shriveled up.

And she is just getting started. Poor girl will be probably be too jazzed to sleep tonight.

She doesn't have a great voice. But it is better than whiny, nasally Maline. JMO

He did not look happy after she did that, sitting there shaking his head.

You can find the nail on the glass here:

Yeah, I imagine that’s how Chase felt about Summer.

 

[katydid23]

And she is just getting started. Poor girl will be probably be too jazzed to sleep tonight.

She gets to watch the videos of the 2 of them, and go step by step, correcting their misinformation for the jurors.

That was a powerful moment because it showed clearly, how they created this distraction of blaming DK, falsely doing so. That one moment was very telling.

Deputy District Attorney Melissa Rodriguez will be doing the rebuttal. It's the last word to jurors from attorneys for either side. Prosecutors get a rebuttal because they have the burden of proof. #mcstay #chasemerritt

"You've heard some pretty big tales from the defense" she tells jurors. "Look at the law the judge gave to you," she says, and not what defense attorneys presented. #mcstay #chasemerritt

Recounts how prosecutors have been accused by defense of lying and making up evidence. "That's not what this case is about; this is a case about how a family of four was brutally murdered," and Rodriguez says she will focus on that.

She said under circumstantial evidence, jurors have to reject unreasonable conclusions. When the defense brought up the choices on circumstantial evidence, the left that out, she said. #mcstay #chasemerritt

There is no evidence that Merritt received a check from Joseph and had permission to write and sign checks, as defense claims Rodriguez says. She calls "fabrication and stretching of evidence" by defense on several items regarding financial statements #mcstay #chasemerritt

Prosecution rebuttal will resume Thursday at 9 AM #mcstay #chasemerritt

I'm sure Summer had a much more pleasing voice.

That's because he wants to jump up and rock her face. LOL.
MOO.

Thanks to all of you who stuck around for Day 2 of closing arguments. Glad I wasn't watching alone.

So glad to share another trial with you, Chelly!

 

[geevee]

Melissa was worth waiting for.

A hundred times this!
