Trial Discussion Thread #49 - 14.08.7, Day 39 ~final arguments~

[sorrell skye]

Nel pointing out how OP has refused to take responsibility for any of his actions and has continually claimed to be a victim of circumstances.

Exactly what many of us have been saying here since this trial began.

Nel addressing the fact that OP is not anxious. He has "anxiety on call".

Perfectly put, Nel!!!!

 

[jimmy73]

Lots of the stuff we hoped would be presented in closing is coming out in these opening statements.

It almost sounds like Nel has too much to use and doesn't know where to start

 

[Chelly]

Nel addressing that OP tailored his version of events.
The defense never called a witness to say that OP screams like a woman!

 

[Val1]

I have to admit it's kind of sad that OP's big brother is missing this, after all the support he's shown through the whole trial. I wonder if the DT will wheel him in for their argument...

 

[AlexUK]

Nel: OP blamed his father, it was his father's ammunition.

Alex Crawford says his father is in court today.

And....good morning everyone from the UK!

 

[AlwaysShocked]

Nels says: "Defense never called a witness to corroborate that OP screams like a woman."

 

[sorrell skye]

Ha! Nel reminding My Lady that Roux never called a witness to testify that OP screams like a woman. Good for him!

 

[JudgeJudi]

Hello all from the beautiful Blue Mountains in Sydney

 

[PrimeSuspect]

Nel : Counsel says they will call X, it never happened, they had the opportunity, the court has to ask why?

 

[JudgeJudi]

Good opening so far. I like what I'm hearing.

 

[kaos]

Good morning from Bonnie Scotland!

Great point from Nel about the defence stating they'd put up experts about OP's screaming woman voice and none appeared.

 

[lithgow1]

Love how Nel is pointing out that the first promised witness (screams like a woman) never materialised.

 

[JudgeJudi]

The bat sounds were amplified.

 

[lisasalinger]

This is awesome!! Defense NEVER proved that Oscar could scream like a woman = court must therefore accept witness testimony of female screams

 

[JudgeJudi]

If you listen to the bat sounds, you can hear the crickets. The gunshot sounds didn't have the crickets.

 

[AlwaysShocked]

This is being broadcast on CNN.

 

[JudgeJudi]

There was talk of manipulating the sound. It is dishonest.

Nel refers to tests by Wolmarans, Dixon 'and their wives'...one can listen to it, there are differences in background sound #oscartrial
