Defence said blood in the car couldn't be aged - Justice Byrne

Defence asked why there weren't any leaves in the car if those in Allison's hair were from their yard - Justice Byrne

 

[Stick]

No idea!

Possibly a point of contention in Judge Byrne's summations?

Can we start a new poll -- what do you think the verdict should be?

It'd be different to the first one in that people started voting on it before all the evidence was heard and also this one would be what you think it should be not what you think it will be... closer to a juror's vote.
