MM seemed like he was fumbling and bumbling around in his final remarks at the end of today, hesitating while looking at notes and looking back at his assistant in the gallery for prompts. I wonder if the defense was taken aback and caught off guard a little by the state resting at that point since, to me and a lot of us here, there was soooooo much left out. His final remarks and request for acquittal was not good for MM and conversely, I thought the state did well with their remarks.
The State insists this is not just a circumstantial case. It's not just based on CWW's word that Mark asked him to kill Teresa. The State says there's Direct Evidence.
Direct Evidence: Definition, Law & Examples - Video & Lesson Transcript | Study.com The term direct evidence refers to any piece of evidence that stands alone to prove an assertion. In other words, it provides direct proof of a fact and doesn't require any type of inference. The testimony of an eyewitness is the most common form of direct evidence likely to be presented at a criminal trial. When a witness relates something that he directly observed or experienced, he is offering direct evidence of an event.
No, TS did not say and the prosecution did not ask..

I have a good idea why. Several reasons actually but it is best I not go into those details until after the trial. I will expound after a verdict is rendered.I can't believe CK won't be testifying. So strange the ones we THOUGHT would be solid witnesses for this trial are not on the stand at all. I just don't understand it... I sure hope we find out why.
Am I being presumptuous by saying we'd all like to see the defendant testify in court?

When the State has introduced the 'direct evidence' do they explicitly say it?...snipped....

I hope and pray he does. But I don't think so because I think they feel encouraged by the lack of solid damning evidence put forth by the state. JMO, but I think they are feeling optimistic.Am I being presumptuous by saying we'd all like to see the defendant testify in court?

I thought about this too and figured one reason the state might not call her to testify is because most of what she observed in Mark's demeanor/behavior would be deemed as speculation or conjecture.I can't believe CK won't be testifying.

MS wanted it all--- the money, the girls, the house! No way he would get custody if TS decided to file for divorce.Lawyers discussing if TS was worth more to MS alive vs $5 million life insurance. Stay at home dad would get alimony and child support, sure, big whoop.
It's not all about the money for MS. He had his entire self/ego/hubris invested in his social standing 1) as a doctor's spouse and as a divorced philandering creep who took his children on his sexual playdates with other women... not so much social standing and respect.
As a wealthy widower with two little girls and a robust social life due to his aggressive social climbing... suddenly attractive to some types of women. Ew. As has been said: money couldn't buy him class, respect or a good character.
It was obvious that she was emailing him messages/statutes from her computer to his during his motion — why is the public/gallery allowed to use phones and computers during a trial, in a court room, in this county??? That’s not allowed in Seminole County,FL at all. Bailiffs come over and make you put it away if it’s in use.
