I'm just now watching LM's girlfriend's testimony (on cross) and the lady defense attorney is not effective IMO. She is asking the girlfriend about fighting with her sister...WHO CARES??? If I was a juror I would be put off by that attorney and her absurd questions as well as her lack of empathy toward the witness.

iirc I think I read that this is her first case?? not entirely sure. I may re-watch rg. I think she knew more about doomsday when she went over there that night than she is telling.

Most of us have watched some pretty bizarre trials over the past few years, but this one can only be described as bat-chit-crazy. I will miss it when it's over.

Yeppers, Chellly, :seeya: it's in a bat-chit-crazy class of its own... but I won't miss it too much -- Naive Nelly here still shakin' & shiverin' about googling clean-laundry-it's-Tuesday-whipping.

:thud:

Ack.

Good morning, everyone! I am glad this trial is finally moving along. i am very interested to see what the defense brings on their end.

 

[borndem]

sorry for asking this out of order but did BA think that was unusual that was thier last text (from LM to BA saying "you are so cute") or did she know LA was meeting up with other people anyway that night so it wasn't strange at all??

Another little sad part, soyesterday -- BA knew LM was gonna visit her new friend Kat again -- 2nd visit that night. She encouraged her to go since LM was slow to meet people since she was so busy with her schedule. I hope BA didn't beat herself up too much about being glad she was going over there. Oh, my. (It's been on my mind.)

No wonder I forgot most of the rg direct testimony, it was continuously interrupted with objections by the defense.

The creepy factor is really high with rg. He requested oral sex and she gave it to him for several months. She went with him to look for other women, knowing his plan, while he was living with km.... no wonder she was afraid of losing him. He was actively seeking and acquiring multiple partners.

The trial is expected to resume as early as 10 a.m., but could start later.

I think Paul and Roberta seem disconnected from real life as everyone involved here...don't know about current drug use but all of these people seem like they fried their brains with drugs or whatever early on in their lives. It seems like both Paul and Roberta should be charged with something for leaving the scene of an obvious crime and not reporting it. I don't buy their stories and there is more....again as with so much in this case we will never know and apparently they go on their way.

RG's relationship with Seth was strange and again we will not know the extent of it...I think Seth still had some involvement with her and the fact she was called so quickly on that night...hum....something is just not right. Her creep factor is very very high and so is Pauls.

It is absolutely *maddening* that Paul & Roberta did nothing!!

For me, having some direct experience w methods of defense attorneys thanks to my ex-h, what I see is a defense strategy that is entirely the creation of the defense attorney with the sole purpose of inspiring reasonable doubt rather than actually getting at the truth of the case.

IMO SM is not capable of participating in his defense bcs this is Barth's premise and conceit, not his. Simply put, "ricky, you are accused of taking the cookie from the cookie jar. Whether you did take the cookie or not is irrelevant. Let's talk about who else had access to the cookie jar and whether or not there's any proof positive that you took that cookie."

IMO Barth is very good at putting on the act of disputing the premise of the pros by suggesting multiple other possible scenarios (and even getting others to testify to them.) while that may make him a good defense lawyer it doesn't bring forth the truth. MOO

But Johnny already went and told Mom he was the one who took the cookies, and then when he got scared, he went and told Dad that it was really Ricki who took the cookies. Mom has to defend Ricki because Johnny already confessed to having his hand in the cookie jar. :blushing:

'Morning all. I hope Barth shakes something out of Paul, still not buying their role in this, it's just off.

I'll bet the made for TV movie on Lifetime (there always is one) will be called "Gone too Far" and Kat and Mom will want to play themselves.

good morning my sleuthy friends:loveyou:

was all set here for another day of :scared: state logic and then realized we start late today

ahhh wellllll.........just as well, i'm on kitten nursery duty in the hive this morning, omg how sweet and adorable they are, glad to fill in for a workerbee

so, curious to see how the cross of paul will go........and can we hope against hope for more jailhouse snitches???lease: yesterday was epic:floorlaugh:

another interesting day to be sure............so i will see you good sleuthers soon........:seeya:

:rose: lizzi

 

[turaj]

court chatter reports that the ex girlfriend will be up next after Paul. If the pattern holds Barth will rip Paul apart (I think he is an easy target) ....have afternoon appointment but don't want to miss this gf. This will be excellent to show this was his pattern with women and what happened that night is no different...just as he says "Gone too Far" to me that is what will get a conviction if the state pounds the idea.

Paul admitted he had little confidence that Seth could call law enforcement and yet they did nothing. Gee we wanted "to give him the chance to to the right thing"....then he implies that by thursday they were thinking of calling someone and well they did not have to go anywhere because law enforcement came to them!! This is so bogus.

I think this was the classic case of not wanting to get involved. It's not like any of these people are Einstein's. What a shame for LM.
