I didn't see the 1st trial, however I have seen the videos of py and hym's testimony from that trial, and I've read about others. After watching the testimony today, and seeing them go one after another, I think it's over the top... Especially after coming off of all the testimony in the state's case. It's way too much of a contrast, and their portrayal conflicts way too much with the state's witnesses. The dt should've separated them, although I'm glad they they didn't. I want the jury to see it for what it is..... JY's fil said, upon learning of MY's death, if he wouldn't of gotten a hold of jy he would've gone plumb to the ground,face first! Seriously, after everything we just heard about who jy really is, how he treated her, his affairs, his emails, his behaviour following her death, his nasty comments he made to others about her and about their relationship, etc... they expect the jury to believe jy was so devastated about MY's death that he would've fallen flat on his face, nose dive straight into the concrete, from grief??? That's ridiculous! Everything taken together today was too much. Nobody is that perfect. I think the jury will see through it! JMO
And I change my mind from my earlier post, that I thought the jury would think they were credible... That was before I saw them all go, one after another.
