No. I think she would leak out assertiveness in her answers.

Agreed, and I think Gaskins is too old school to let her get on the stand anyways.

Who is the kid sitting in the middle of them doing and saying nothing (and why is he there)?

 

[borndem]

Gaskins *seriously* looks and sounds like the do-nothing dude I had to report to for the past 14 months. The guy would talk & talk & talk and say nothing. He's an IT Director who has zero computer or IT expertise.

At least Gaskins actually shows up to work most of the time. Until you've had to work for someone like this...OMG... so useless, and they paid big $$$$.

I had one similar, Mad, a Princeton E.E. and Columbia MBA grad. About 5'6" tall. Very smart, cocky, but did not know or try to know anything about our IT systems. He, however, was worse than yours because he DID come to work -- every dayam day -- and his attitude pizzed-off a lot of folks and won him no friends. He was responsible for my first-ever visit to a shrink. After a while, he was told to leave "today." He finally p.o'd the wrong person.

What I noticed is how svelte and toned she looked having just given birth a month before. And that's what I would have commented on were I a witness asked for my opinion. And then, knowing me, I probably would have asked her how she does that.... :O

If grant was doing coke, heroin, etc, I betcha amanda was too! Peas in a pod. And coke makes you BOLD and makes one feel invincible...plus makes you super skinny within weeks of giving birth! IMO. a Facebook acquaintance of mine the other day posted a comment that she used to see grant and Amanda out at the downtown/glenwood hot spots together and was so surprised that this "nice couple" was involved in this.

 

[Marilou]

Watching the defense interact with the PI was painful, they couldn't even get straight which month & year events occurred! I was surprised that the PT didn't object more to the rambling about the supposed "trips to Kinston". Even if all the purchases were for gas (which can't be proven) and GH drove 575 miles before leaving for TX, there has been no evidence presented that he was driving back & forth to Kinston. This is all just an elaborate "story" unless they can present evidence that he dismembered her in Kinston. Maybe the PT team didn't object because the presentation by the DT was so rambling & disjointed that they figured the DT was doing more harm to themselves than to anyone else!

 

[borndem]

I think WRAL needs a new camera person...this one can't follow the action.

Gaskins must have put poor Chad to sleep as well.

If grant was doing coke, heroin, etc, I betcha amanda was too! Peas in a pod. And coke makes you BOLD and makes one feel invincible...plus makes you super skinny within weeks of giving birth! IMO. a Facebook acquaintance of mine the other day posted a comment that she used to see grant and Amanda out at the downtown/glenwood hot spots together and was so surprised that this "nice couple" was involved in this.

This sounds very plausible. I had been thinking maybe some sort of amphetamine, but cocaine might be the ticket, esp since he's known to do it, and they run through so much money.

 

[Boodles]

Watching the defense interact with the PI was painful, they couldn't even get straight which month & year events occurred! I was surprised that the PT didn't object more to the rambling about the supposed "trips to Kinston". Even if all the purchases were for gas (which can't be proven) and GH drove 575 miles before leaving for TX, there has been no evidence presented that he was driving back & forth to Kinston. This is all just an elaborate "story" unless they can present evidence that he dismembered her in Kinston. Maybe the PT team didn't object because the presentation by the DT was so rambling & disjointed that they figured the DT was doing more harm to themselves than to anyone else!

Well there was the Kinston deposit of $350 cash on 7/14, time unknown. So I think it's possible G did scoot down to Kinston. But if he did, I think it was to get money from his mama. Alternatively, his mother may have deposited the money into his account herself. Hmmm, what might she have known?

 

[Chelly]

That seems to be the gist of it. PI will become literary/fictional character critic/analyst. Given the brief work history presented at the beginning of his testimony, I rather expect that he will fail miserably in this task.

I just hope he doesn't present another spreadsheet!

 

[borndem]

what is the relevance of showing photos of old houses?

The PI said he was looking for property owned by Grant, Jr or Grant III -- and took pics of what he found.

 

[borndem]

to induce a stupefied trance like state in the members of the jury. So they leave the courthouse after the day and can't recall their names or addresses and they go wandering off never to be seen again...

Thus a mistrial - score 1 for Gaskins. Mission Accomplished.

Or,

A mass murder by boredom or sleeping sickness of 15 innocent jurors and maybe a couple more from the gallery...

You make the call!

 

[borndem]

Is the judge gonna tear a new one for that defense attorney?

Oh, I'm sure Stephens has seen him before -- Gaskins has represented 1st Murder defendants before -- that may be why Hizzoner is a bit short with the DT antics... And a judge such as Stephens knows when the DT has nothing, but he has to give him a shot and to give the poor defendant a chance. (And yes, I mean poor in that she's got him for representation.) What a flippin' mess. I feel sorry for the jury -- we can always leave or scream or moan to each other. They can't.... yet.

 

[borndem]

He wants the jury to watch these two movies??

And some of the jurors are thinking "Shoot me, please," and the others are thinking "Shoot him, please, and NOW."

 

[borndem]

Didn't the skilsaw need electricity though? I mean, I could almost stretch myself to believe that he took her elsewhere, but details matter, and it does not seem like these old houses have any type of electricity available.

Yes, electricity is necessary -- as I mentioned before, my DH has the same saw -- a SKIL brand reciprocating saw. They do not have a battery-powered model. It needs that 'lectric thang. And you can bet if those houses are vacant, there is no 'lectric in them. Oopsy, Mr. Def Atty.

 

[borndem]

It looks like there's no one in the gallery to pan to.

They've all escaped, otto. They're gone!


:hills:

 

[borndem]

She isn't even listed on imdb for her "famous" roll in The Stepford Wives. lol

I was gonna report the same thing, Tiger -- I just read & re-read the "entire cast" list on IMDB, and there was no "Amanda" there. I can see, if her hair was done then as it is now, that she could have been an extra "wife" in a scene or two, but it must have been an itty-bitty bit part in a short scene in a crowd -- and no lines to speak or her name would be there.

 

[borndem]

That seems to be the gist of it. PI will become literary/fictional character critic/analyst. Given the brief work history presented at the beginning of his testimony, I rather expect that he will fail miserably in this task.

Yep, agreed, otto.

Anybody wanna guess how many "Objection" -- "Sustained" remarks we'll hear during these movie synopses??

 

[borndem]

IMO. a Facebook acquaintance of mine the other day posted a comment that she used to see grant and Amanda out at the downtown/glenwood hot spots together and was so surprised that this "nice couple" was involved in this.

If she was also nursing Lilly, she ought to be charged with attempted murder also. IMO. Grrrrrr.

 

[Boodles]

On the news last night, WRAL @ 11pm, I heard "AH is expected to testify." I'm sure I wan't dreaming it. Did Gaskins say that in court yesterday?

 

[Chelly]

Good Morning WS Friends!!!!

I haven't heard anything about AH testifying. But I hope she does.

OT: I DID hear MSM talking heads saying that Dunn must testify if he wants to defend his claim of self defense against what he thought was a gun pointed trough the Durango windows.

 

[CarolinaMoon]

Live now! Judge reading movie synopses!

Ripley movie: says storyline has no parallel to this trial. Most of the viewing would be information which is irrelevant, confusing, and of no probative value.

People can testify as to parallels in Ripley's character to GH.

Stepford Wives up next. Both of these films are Hollywood, contrived. Reading reviews of the movie. Mentions all the reviews that said how funny and hilarious the movie was.

This case is not a comedy and there is no probative value to the movie. Objection sustained.

And now... back to the Dunn trial for a while. Yes, he'll be testifying. I'll catch up on this trial later and during breaks.
