Geez

I have this weird feeling she may end up throw that cup of water at someone

There is a definite resemblance there. IMO

She looks agitated, keeps fluctuating between a grin and then Something supposed to be a smile? Somehow it just looks sinister.

Yep, and why is she not handcuffed?

Watching the trial feed, while it's muted and waiting for court to resume. Videographers have focused on TS, and her face making abilities. The squinty eyes with the smirk and furrowed brow, reminds me of Amber Heard, and the " My dog stepped on a beeeee" face!!

After seeing what seems to be defense attny CF preparing his opening statement in court this AM, I am not hopeful that he put forth much effort into the 2nd phase either. The jury should at least know about her mental health history, family upbringing, any other episodes throughout her life etc and call witnesses to corroborate such things. I fear that he will just rely on information collected thus far and offer no new information. I hope I am wrong.

A big question I have is where was her son while she was living in some random dude's apartment smoking meth? I know her son now lives with his paternal grandparents, but when did that transpire and wouldn't that be a mitigating factor to her mental health as to the loss of custody of her child?
Is she actually legally married? Her last name is made up and not the legal last name of her "husband". Did they live together? If so. When? He is incarcerated for the past approx 20 months. Wouldn't that be a mitigating factor to her state of mind as well?

Her mother died when she was young and she lived with her grandparents. What was that homelife like? How did the death of her mother impact her life? That is certainly a traumatic event that altered her mind and could be a mitigating factor.

The jury knows very little about her, and I hope CF does his job and fills in the blanks to humanize her, allow moments of empathy for her. Even though she commited a heinous crime, she is still a human being and deserves to be understood on a human level. She wasn't born a monster, so what transpired in her life to mold her into what she has become?
MOO

I can't watch the live feed for the next few hours (stupid life) so relying on updates on here when I'm able to nip on!

Is there an estimate on how long this second phase will last?

I personally doubt it'll be long.

My personal guess is we will have a verdict by tommorow.

That's just my opinion tho. I dont know if theres an offical estimate

Taylor's father has been summon. Hope he appears. moo

 

[arielilane]

Interesting her father gets a subpoena (request made on behalf of defense)... is that typical protocol? Sounded like defense wasn't sure he would show. moo

 

[arielilane]

State's opening stmt.

 

[arielilane]

Good morning. We are back in court for phase two in the Taylor Schabusiness trial. In this phase, the jury will determine whether Schabusiness is or is not responsible for her criminal conduct by reason of insanity.

[arielilane]

Phase 2 of #TaylorSchabusinessTrial Burden of proof falls on defense. They are trying to prove Schabusiness was suffering from some sort of mental health disease or defect, when committing the crimes, that prevented her from her appreciating the seriousness of her conduct. #WLUK

Defense: Her father is on the way and Taylor reacted to that. moo

Want to respond to your post. Nice post.

It seems defense is calling just two witnesses - the psychologist Dr. Litten (sp?) And TS's father so in my opinion the jury will have the case by this afternoon.

Dad is incarcerated

On the stand : Arturo Coronado defendant's father
