You're welcome!

The business card kept me amused over the break Glad you guys enjoyed it.

I wonder if Laura knew something. The whole phone thing surrounding AM is just odd and strange IMO. Did she know something or find something out from that phone? Finding it in a park just doesn't sit right.. Jmo

I think Dungey was linking Ish to the song.....a guy that was all about making his money from cocaine. Trying to have a mic drop moment this trial.

Yeah, pockets full of crack cocaine. Something along those lines.

So a police officer....and what about the camp person???

I think whatever the camp supervisor might have had, got shut down in legal arguments without CN being at trial to speak to certain things.

If you read the lyrics its about a guy that builds an empire then gets busted and sent away. His buddy kills the judge and gets sent away with him. He does his time goes back to selling crack on the streets, rebuilding his empire.

I pray this isn't Smich asking MWJ to cap the Judge.

 

[mimimic]

Police officer for more text messages?

That crack song ...old school... from the early 90's! Dungey goes way back.

More like Dungey is suggesting that Matthew hasn't changed, and is destined to continue being a punk with future dates with the law.

I think we when we get to read about "what the jury didn't hear", things are going to fall into place.

No doubt in my mind that DM and MS are guilty. Just biding my time now until this goes to the Jury.

MOO

I agree. That regardless of what happens at his upcoming sentencing, when he gets out, he will be back to selling crack, working his crew.

Not long now!

So ya there is no way Dungey knew that song. So it was MS telling Dungey to reference that. Why?

 

[Yendys]

Does anyone recall in the TB trial that someone accused DM of hitting his dog, Pedo? I seem to remember something about that and I think it could be important because I think DM wants the jury to see him as a great dog lover and someone who would not harm a defenseless animal, unlike say, a sociopath might. I wish I could recall the details. Anyone?

All MOO

Sorry way behind today but it is well recognized that those who abuse animals will often progress to abusing people.

IMO, it is not very ethical of a defense lawyer - even if instructed by his client - to send a cryptic message to a Crown witness in open court during a murder trial, if that's actually what Dungey intended and did.

I wonder if the jury will ask for the lyrics and discuss their relevance.

All MOO

Absolutely. And there is no way it was anything but that. What else could it be? That question did nothing to help his client. Why is old man Dungey engaging in these games..

Yup. It's just like the way he wrapped up his cross-examination of Christina Noudga at the Bosma trial. Here's what Adam Carter wrote:

Dungey chose a very specific point in Millard's letters to his former lover with which to cap off his cross-examination. He showed a portion on the courtroom screens where Millard wrote, "I deserve you, and you deserve me."

"That's what he wrote to you, right?" Dungey said, and Noudga agreed.

"No further questions," Dungey said.
