They are both making mistakes in their behavior. What Jodi does not realize as she puts on a show for the jury, the judge sees her true personality, the judge sees her remove her glasses, the judge sees her play to the jury. If she does not get the DP, the judge decides her sentence.
I agree, I firmly believe, what with this joke of a trail lasting forever and ever and a day. Jodi and MDLR consider Sherry's Court their little playground.
Hopefully some of their behavior hasn't escaped the jurors.
They just can't help their silly selves.
