Puryear says Conner said that "the day [Armstrong] left for Costa Rica, she was as free as you or I or Katy Conner.""When faced with fear, when faced in a stressful situation... what do we do? It's fight or flight. That attempt to retreat, to find a safe place, to find a place of comfort. She's not alone in that. Colin did the same thing! Colin went to his dad's house."

Totally dismissing theft from a business.

I missed some of the trial. Was the prosecution able to tell the jury KA fled using her sisters name and passport illegally?

"It's easy to say, I would have done something different... we all react differently to stressful situations."There was no investigation into any of Mo Wilson's exes, Puryear reminds the jury. Calls the detective's testimony a smoke screen for the failures of the APD investigation.The Judge provides a 15 minute recess for the jury.

They taking a recess. Never heard of a recess during a closing argument!

Yes, they covered finding CA's passport in Costa Rica and that the flight was booked in the name of "Christie Armstrong".

Thank goodness!!

I don't like the suggestion about Mo not locking the door behind her. She was staying with a friend. I don't typically go into my friends houses and lock the door behind me. Also, her friend wasn't yet home so perhaps she left it unlocked knowing her friend was on her way home. If I recall correctly it wasn't even 45 minutes later she returned to find her friend dead.

Defense did that during the OJ trial …
Suggesting Nicole was expecting someone. It’s horrible. That’s what it feels like is going on here.
Desperate defense IMO

I was thinking the same thing! Did he drop his name because Obama is very beloved in Austin?

I don't know Puryear but know Cofer has political aspirations... so there's that.

I guess they need to figure out what to say in their 10 remaining minutes. Gotta cut it down because we ain't got no time for all that!

 

[whitelilac]

I came in late. Did the defense attempt to explain away Mazak's testimony?

 

[RickshawFan]

Don't forget Peter Pan. I didn't have that on my bingo card either.

He might have been on point with that one, though.

I think it was the judge who requested it!

Judge takes a brief recess because some of the jurors have “urgent needs.” Defense has about ten minutes left once we get back from break.

@JimVertuno

Juror has urgent need for a break, so judge interrupts defense closing for 15 minutes in Kaitlin Armstrong murder trial
