Capone was crying when Jackie came in the shop because she looked like Rachael? No clue on relevance there. I just realized my tweets were set to "top tweets" instead of "all." Now I see where he says he has Capone saying what they did with the body. Was that when he said "I'll take you to her body if you let me out of jail" or something?
I see what you're saying about B - so he got the info from Capone. Load of B.S.
Incidently, I work for an attorney - so I can't help but also look at it from a legal view point as well. If they don't have a body, they need to have an airtight circumstantial case and just throwing everything out there does not work. As far as the family, I think they are holding up as well as can be expected. They are glad there will be some resolution after 4 years, but it's bittersweet of course. If they are testifying, they can't be inside during the hearing - so they get news of some things the way everyone else does unfortunately.
The tweets are worthless as far as I'm concerned. I don't understand where the media went on this either. It really bothers me. At least bring back live blogging!!!
I forgot that since they are on witness list, they can only be in the courtroom when testifying.
Started with lots of hearsay to back up Rachael's state of mind (extremely fearful and being stalked) and unfortunately, with no body, it comes down to mostly circumstantial, but both their DNA on glove tip is a start, and I'm hopeful they have a fair amount of electronic forensics. Thanks to too many TV crime shows, we have seen that juries seem to expect everything tied up with a neat little bow with plenty of hardcore DNA evidence and video of the crime in progress I guess.
Praying they have a jury with common sense to apply to what they have heard and are entirely comfortable that the trail leads to one, and only one person who is responsible for Rachael no longer being here, and that she is indeed deceased.
Hope it doesn't merely hinge on how believable Stone is.
Trib has promised to live blog again when he gets on the stand next week. They just don't seem to have enough personnel to record whatever they can in court, throw down an occasional tweet, give us a short story with maybe 2 mins of video AND also live blog. Heck, even half as much info in blog would be very welcomed by those of us who can't be there.
Only relevance of Capone crying is he's a sociopath who long ago learned how to mimic real human emotions and turned on waterworks when somebody asked him how he was doing. Blah blah blah like somebody really cares. Detective just trying to be sympathetic enough to get the jerk to open up and talk (good cop, and gosh, one who "cares"). His reaction was just bogus and I'm sticking to that opinion!
Prosecution is what it is. Can't speak to how good that team is, but small county and young. My hope is there is a real barracuda under there. Or is Capone going to insist on taking the stand, and turn on the waterworks every time she stands up and asks a question all nice nice? Ugh.
