Had a hard time finding this thread. I thought it would be in the trial thread as this boy is going to turn out to be a serial rapist/killer after all is said and done.

Not sure if this has already been posted but, it's a link to live tweets from court via WTOP. Trial resumes at 10am EST.

Here are some reporters tweeting today live from the courthouse.

On the one hand i agree, a rape is a rape regardless of virginity status, but " the first time" should be special, and welcomed, not a near-death experience, imo.

That's how I am viewing it too. She was saving herself and he took that from her. This young lady is so strong to do this!
The poor Harringtons. You know they have to be thinking this is what MH went through also.
I agree, bring in his friends who thought it looked like him. Oh and those 'he's just a teddy bear guy' pft whatever!
Sorry, I am just getting caught up on the trial.
 
Oh and does she still have scars on her neck or were they saying she did back then?

All I could find was where the prosecution presented pictures of scars on her throat from back then. Nothing said if they are still there or not.

Thanks for posting the twitter links, Dr. Know! I can't post much today but I am peeking in as I can on breaks.
 
Not working for me. I don't have an account, is that why?

Just might be the problem. You should get an account, it won't take you long to understand it. Any case you want to know the latest news on you can type in and do a search for it. It's handy.
 
One of the reporters is posting on FB too, I'll see if I can find it. I just read this tweet, hope it's okay to post:
From Nicole razz:
Judge tells jury to disregard Detective Boone's remark about #JesseMatthew DNA matching victim's fingernail scrapings @wmalnews

Why?? I don't understand. I guess because it was discovered during the hannah graham case which they aren't allowed to discuss.
 
I had the pleasure of taking 45 minutes from work this morning to sit in the courtroom and watch the nurse and the officer who responded to the hospital testify. I saw Jesse Matthew too - surrounded by counsel. Was there for direct, cross, redirect of the two aforementioned witnesses. The nurse mainly described how she collected evidence, the female anatomy, and whether or not she recalled the victim personally or was simply testifying based on her handwriting on the sealed evidence bags. Matthew was engaged in listening to both witnesses and discussing things with his counsel as they came up.

This trial is really moving fast! I think they will finish earlier than anticipated.

I mean, how long can the defense drag out the "it was some other guy and it is a totally innocent coincidence that JM's DNA just happened to be under her fingernail" defense?

It's laughable! They are trying to put reasonable doubt into the mind of the juror. It's their ONLY hope. Too bad it's weak and won't work. This isn't the OJ Simpson trial, people!!! JM is GOING DOWN!
