Twitter accounts have been helpful ways to follow this trial for me, since I can't watch the live stream. Seems that Etters and Williams have very different senses of how it's going. Etters seems to think the defense is doing all right, or at least better than Williams does. Or it could be that Etters is doing more editorializing and Williams is more just-the-facts (I prefer her approach, honestly).
As for reading into the jury's having only one question, hard to say. Seems from what I could follow that Rivera's testimony was pretty straightforward, which would explain lack of questions (a confused jury would presumably ask many questions). The only real shot the defense had was to make him seem unappealing (hence the LK linkage, I guess) and/or untruthful (hence Kawass' focusing on the inconsistencies).
For me the really surprising thing was Rivera said they were doing it for Wendi. How would he know that, I wonder? Seems that Garcia didn't say much and Magbanua was the main contact. If true it certainly raises the odds of WA's involvement.
