Thanks for your words of wisdomI really don’t think legally they would abort the trial at this stage. If she refuses to give any further evidence and she says that on Wednesday I THINK and don’t quote me that the trial would continue straight onto the defence experts and carry on. There couldn’t be re examination of the cross examination from BM - I cannot see that being allowed by the trial judge. The jury would obviously take inference from her unwillingness to continue in the box and quite rightly so. She’s screwed either way.
It was a disaster to put her in the witness box in the first place.
The defence have never introduced any MH issues bar PTSD so they are in a really bizarre position here.
MOO
I totally agree.
A mistrial sounds so absurd!
I mean - really!!!
Goodnight
