I enjoy the trial stage more than any other as I'm interested in seeing the evidence the state actually has, rather than the journey of trying to guess what they might have and where it might lead in the months and sometimes years before a case gets litigated.
Interesting. All of us may come here for various reasons. I enjoy discovering the psychology of the major players.
Why they fall victim to a crime.
Why a person commits a crime, especially a heinous and despicable, as this one has been.
How the perp gets to the point where they commit their crimes, et al, is fascinating to me.
Still on Work Product:
Defenses cross is totally ineffective on cross due to the facts of the data collected. Paul is slightly raising his voice over repeated questions previously answered in testimony. She is giving "for instance" and "for example" questions. From a cell site (location) he cannot tell where the phone is located. That is why he placed only the known locations in his Power Point.
Agrees data is approximation of location of phone. IE: He cannot see inside the vehicle. He agrees.
Paul has immediate recall of times and data. I am totally amazed by his skills. Hope he earns a massive salary for this specialty in the field of Intelligence Analysis Expertise. He is the one who solved this murder for Panola Co. Others helped but he did the analyzing with a fine tooth comb by using that $7000 software. He ran names through it at night so the data was available in morning.
He analyzed all reports and tips that came in during the investigation.
Male named Albert Perkins called Big Mike one hour after Jessica's death.
Why?
Word was spreading to community to see who may know anything.
Well, Big Mike was in Nashville.
Derrick Taylor, Sha Sha was close to him.
No evidence JC knew him, but had extensive cellphone analysis.
Took four weeks to rule out certain people.
Defense continues to state this is the last question!
She claims QT had sex once with JC.
Paul: Did not believe it to be true as QT stated it was Dec 5.
Paul: No evidence they were having sex.
Had spreadsheet on wall of inconsistencies from First Responders.
Paul gives a short story of personal experience to prove his point. He was first on scene of awful car wreck. He will never forget the chaotic experience. He possesses understanding of shock of 1st Responders. Stories change as people are able to process experience.
Redirect: Rapid fire question and answer session. Reiterates earlier testimony and lies QT told. And, QT walked to borrow his sister's car that goes to the shed that contained gasoline. 12 minutes later JC is on fire when QT is on road to Batesville. He deleted all contact info and erased her from his life.
Devotion at 9am in breakfast area at hotel.
See everyone tomorrow at 1:00.
[Remember I was about 15 - 20 minutes behind due to taking that needed break.]
