Hm.... people are against animal testing, right? Why not test on murderers, pedophiles, etc? :maddening::jail:


As for that link, I can't view it. Website wants me to pay. Apparently I have viewed 10 articles in this 30 day period. :doh:

Hi BorgQueen, clear your cookies for the website in question. It does not always do the trick, in my experience though it does most of the time.

 

[BorgQueen]

Dane, thank you. I will try that

ETA: clearing cookies for just that website didn't work, however, clearing ALL my cookies did. Had to log back into a few websites, but at least I can read it now. Thanks

Oh there! Hahahaha....I think it's fitting, let's just leave it as is. :floorlaugh:

 

[BorgQueen]

Sometimes, you read my mind.
It would be interesting, especially considering his long standing obsession with Homolka, doing everything he can to have his name linked to her (even before this trial, you couldn't google her without his name showing up). It would be interesting to find out if he had actually tracked her down and attempted to contact her. She would be an unreliable witness, however, and I don't think that she would even cooperate.



ETA: MORE technical difficulties. Why am I not surprised? Does somebody sabotage everything each day? This is getting ridiculous! :doh:ullhair::waiting:

I think the last thing the prosecution wants is to have Karla Homolka testifying in a court room in Montreal via video link from her home in the Caribbean. That would just be way too bizarre, even for this case.

But if they're going to talk to Hubert, they should be talking to the other people whose name he used don't you think?

MOO

Indeed, Homolka would not be a good witness, for far too many reasons. But what about her sister? Although, I can't see her being too cooperative, either to be honest. They'd be too hostile, all things considered.

[Little Jedi]

So if they're bringing in Hubert Chretian, are they bringing in Karla and her sister to testify?

:blushing: Uhh I've just had to google ^ him ^

 

[Kamille]

And once again Leclair wastes time and money with inane questions. I think he just likes to hear himself talk. And he's paid by the hour. :gaah:

MOO

 

[BorgQueen]

BREAK! They JUST started!
And those questions about Mr Chretien's scuba stuff... seriously? The Defence is baffling sometimes.

:blushing: Uhh I've just had to google ^ him ^

Don't worry, I did too when I was trying to figure out the relevance of the names used on the packages.

 

[Little Jedi]

But if they're going to talk to Hubert, they should be talking to the other people whose name he used don't you think?

MOO

Oh Oh ...... ' Emile Lacroix ' ?? :giggle:

Michaël Nguyen ‏@MNguyenJDM 34 secs34 seconds ago
Ça reprend à #Magnotta. Témoin 21 : Logan Valentini, par vidéo-conférence.

Rosie DiManno ‏@RDiManno 55 secs55 seconds ago
#magnotta Now testifying: Lori Valentini, nee Lori Homolka, sister of Karla Homolka, notorious school girl killer with husband Paul Bernardo

 

[BorgQueen]

I am glad they got her in. And I hope his long-standing obsession with Ms. Valentini's sister is brought up. The jury needs to know where this guy's mind REALLY is.

 

[BorgQueen]

Sorry, I am not copy/pasting more than I am. A bit overwhelming to read all these tweets on twitter. But.... here is that Bordelais name again!

Stephane Giroux ‏@SGirouxCTV 59 secs60 seconds ago

Karla Homolka, she says, now lives in Quebec with husband Thierry Bordelais #Magnotta



______________________________


Editing To Add: Leclair asking her if she looks like her sister. Seriously? How is this relevant?

Editing again, to avoid spamming: I am trying to organise some tweets. It isn't working out very well. I totally suck at this.
Also, I feel bad for Logan, being sucked into yet another murder case, by association. I'd be pretty irritated. Leclair's ridiculous questions must have made it even more irritating.

 

[Little Jedi]

Not to mention, when did LM buy the 5 boxes and why wasn't that in today's testimony? It looks like bad detective work but I'm sure there's an explanation?

MOO

A receipt filed in evidence Thursday shows that on his first trip to Jean Coutu on Queen Mary Rd., at 9:51 a.m., the killer bought five extra-small-sized Canada Post boxes.
But he returned four of them at 1:48 p.m. and told the clerk on duty they were too small for what he needed to send.
