I have followed this tread closely and I am unaware of any recent posts that even flirted with site violations, let alone something that would necessitate a new thread. I don't want to get anywhere near the line so I'm curious: what happened? "Was it something I said?" (No, not ME) I see...

SL's brother had better remain faithful and doting and very, very nice to his wife because if he p*sses her off, she can rat him out without a backward glance! Yes, even without a divorce. No forewarning necessary. One ugly argument from him and she can just drop by the friendly neighborhood...

[\QUOTE]Killer's family should never be allowed to make contact. SO: presumably anyone but the killer's family IS not only allowed to make contact but encouraged to be kind and supportive and empathetic? So ANYONE who was not the killer, and not the killer's family, would be invited to...

SL's haste and greed made him sloppy and that will prove his undoing. I think the prosecution realized with the hung jury how many holes it left in it's original case and will methodically plug each of them this time around. With a month, they will be able to eviscerate the defense. I...

Just a vocabulary point, just to make people look good when they write in public: a jurist is an expert in the law, someone who writes law opinions, that kind of thing - usually a judge. Someone who sits on a jury is a juror. Think of me as just straightening your tie as you walk out the...

Scr*w the jurors, we all know they are idiots, but what special brand of nincompoop for a judge **accepts** a so-called hung jury after one day of deliberating? Mushy brains. I think the ex-wife will have compelling evidence of SL's unfitness for parenting and have his visitations restricted...

<<The jury in the Steven Lindsey murder trial continued to deliberate Thursday through dinner time.>> This tells me they believe they are close - otherwise they'd just shut it down and say they can crab at each other in the morning. <<Alexa will read instructions this morning that jurors will...

Arabian, you are too fabulous for knowing this - and sharing. It just doesn't get any better. And Barry, I read that, too. You can rest assured that the prosecutor will rebut that if they have any opportunity and the judge WILL give instructions. Normally with guidance. I'd say a prayer...

I'm sorry, Barry. I wrote that up fantasizing I was the prosecuting attorney. Yeah, I'd like to see the transcripts, too. This is one I'd be glued to if it were on tv.

On cross examination: "And Mr. Lindsey, you say you 'looked into' buying a mobile security system. Why didn't you? We know you have piles of money, you loved your wife more than life itself, your little girl was the apple of your eye, and you wanted to protect them with every fiber of your...

SL took the stand! Yipee! The prosecution gets a crack at him. <rubbing hands mischievously> They must be giggling with glee at the chance to cross examine this guy! <<Steven Lindsey rejected claims that he and 23-year-old Melinda had financial problems, &#8230; he chose not to work at the...

Since I don't see anything in the paper from the defense side that disputes this accusation, I think we can safely conclude that what SL's aunt wrote about his employment status was incorrect. And whatever he was doing (or not doing) didn't cover the bills - even with an infusion from the...

As I recall, SL lost his job because of the condoms and drinking on the clock, too? Or am I mixing up cases? I thought the company was watching and caught him in a bar, driving the company car?

Has the defense produced this "witness" who says the ex-boyfriend old them this line of bologna about traveling incognito to kill Melinda? (Until they invent a Star Trek beam-me-up-Scotty, ain't nobody goin' from CA to IN and back in 6 hours!)

There were three dogs, I remember that - I'm just conjecturing the ex and son got the one I heard a disputed claim about. Maybe it was in the now-closed previous string? I'm also wondering if SL was successful in having the 2 dogs killed. Some people start those actions but find out some vets...
