State vs. Jason Lynn Young 03-01-12 (P.M. session: PT closing arguments)

[dmaxphil]

Did anyone see the picture of Michelle A stranger did NOT do that!

Right. Because a stranger has never beaten anyone to death.

 

[luckyme]

I missed it did they show her?

 

[Stella5]

Did they show a postmortem picture???

He showed it to the jury and the camera picked it up. It was heartbreaking.

 

[cody100]

I have seen no proof that he left with his computer. If they knew he did, it would definitely be in evidence.

HC:
(shows photo of MY's head) Is this what a stranger does?
No reason to strangle someone after you beat them 30 times. I can't recreate what happened that night.
...strangulation wasn't working so he smacks her right in the lips. Moved to the floor and that's why there's blood on the Progress Energy papers.
...If you're a stranger, why do you feel the need to overkill somebody? That's what it is, overkill. You're mad that person has put you in a place you do not want to be.

I missed it did they show her?

Yep! As he put the pic down he flashed it for ALL to see..

 

[Pocono Sleuther]

He's doing one helluva job IMO. Excellent, concise, hitting all the important points.

 

[terminatrixator]

OMG, my eyes are getting heavy here. Hope jury is more alert. His voice puts me into a trance.

I think it's quite calming and allows me to really think about what he's saying and go back to the testimony and visual what he's saying. I get what you are saying.

 

[Wolfpack]

Yep! As he put the pic down he flashed it for ALL to see..

Wow. I wonder if WRAL will edit it out of the video later today.

 

[fromageball]

Sorry but a stranger killed my cousin by strangling her, beating her face in and putting cigs out on her body for 10 days.... And raping her..

I'm so sorry. That's terrible.

Random crimes do happen.

I'm sorry for your loss Steeler. I too know all too well about crimes & murders of family members.

What I meant is in this case, I dont' see it at a stranger. MOO

 

[SteelerGirl43]

Wow. I wonder if WRAL will edit it out of the video later today.

Dont know, it was pretty quick, but it was close up.

 

[Pocono Sleuther]

Yep! As he put the pic down he flashed it for ALL to see..

Yeah. It was way worse than I pictured. Way way worse. Did anyone screen cap it? Heartbreaking. Showed A LOT of violence and anger by JY.

 

[SailorMoon]

Not to be gruesome but I really wanted to see that pic. Dang it, I just don't get people who kill.

 

[SteelerGirl43]

I'm sorry for your loss Steeler. I too know all too well about crimes & murders of family members.

What I meant is in this case, I dont' see it at a stranger. MOO

I see what you are saying..... Thank you ....

 

[Pocono Sleuther]

I think it's quite calming and allows me to really think about what he's saying and go back to the testimony and visual what he's saying. I get what you are saying.

I agree. His tone and overall pattern of speech seems to make it easier to understand.

 

[terminatrixator]

Sorry about your loss. How terrible.

 

[fifteen89]

This is an awesome closing. Period.

 

[Ransom]

The State is desperate for the jury to believe those side doors were unlocked at 6 AM. What they haven't explained is how did Young also avoid the security cameras covering all those doors but maybe they are hoping the jury is too stupid to connect the dots. Hicks was quite clear that only the front door was locked at night and unlocked at 6 AM. All others locked 24/7. The sign applies to the front door. A pathetic move on the PTs part but it doesn't surprise me.

start at 35:06 - Mr. Hicks EXPLAINS the door, with the sign, clearly show the locked/open hours on the sign.

 

[Pocono Sleuther]

Did he say forever and ever amen? Lol. Love the smartarse attitude.
