Somebody do something!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is total abuse of this witness. Humiliating and unwarranted.
Yep -- you are right -- I deleted the post, or meant to!! And I think you're right about the Vegas ticket using NH's card (what a low-life -- he really didn't give a damm about them, did he? Grrrrrr) Thanks for clarifying... maybe I was just hoping that Arbour was on his way to Vegas...borndem, the Amtrak ticket wasn't to Vegas, it was from Raleigh to Charlotte. I think JB may have also booked a flight to Vegas using Nation's credit card. Not positive, but expect it will be covered later if the defense attorney ever shuts the **** up.
I think ADA Faucette may be afraid it would just prolong it. The whole thing is obscene, IMO. Never have I seen this kind of torture before. Why, why, why???I think the prosecutor needs to object to this line of questioning based on irrelevance, stupidity, and being cruel and unusual re victimization of the witness who is himself a victim. My stomach aches from this, I can't imagine how he must feel. Poor Nation. Why is the prosecution not objecting?
I guess the question about Jamie calling out the defendant's name as if she was trying to wake him up, could go to support a contention that he was in a dream state of that he was operating in a manner where he didn't know what he was doing. A father was just found NOT guilty of murder in a case in Durham. He said he was sleep walking. It might be a little late for that defense here, though.

I just can't listen to Abour !!! Judge Rigeway needs to get control of his court IMO. This line of questioning to me is like Abour is testifying in long repetitive narration of events and giving history. I nearly died when he started about who else has arthritis??!! What does that have to do with Jamie being murdered?? He will go five times in a row just making long winded observations and statement and then every so often ask...Is that fair? I have seen judges tell a defense attorney to...."move it along" or "get to the point." One judge even said...okay 5 more minutes then move on. This is what the judge needs to do to Arbour IMO I'm going nuts with this guy!
