GUILTY WA - Hana Williams, 13, Sedro-Woolley, 12 May 2011

I agree. You just don't get it. I hope your friend and the child(ren?) she adopted from Africa reach out for help and counseling. Many of these children have had very difficult lives and adapting to a very different culture and new family can be incredibly traumatic. Many adoptive parents...

GUILTY WA - Hana Williams, 13, Sedro-Woolley, 12 May 2011

http://blogs.seattletimes.com/today/2013/09/verdict-reached-in-trial-over-death-of-adopted-ethiopian-girl/ Sadly, the trial did not get much press coverage nationally until the verdict was reached. Larry Williams: ◾No verdict on Homicide by abuse (jury hung) ◾Guilty of...

SIDEBAR #8- Arias/Alexander forum

Oh, it has nothing to do with knowing and appreciating Sinatra, Presley and Liz Taylor. I'm 58 and still adore listening to Elvis. It's just that if the goal was to manipulate those "older jurors" with portraits of contemporaries, then CMja would have done better to have chosen people from...

SIDEBAR #8- Arias/Alexander forum

Possibly no accident, but the use of those particular portraits would have been far more effective had the jurors been in their eighties or nineties.;)

SIDEBAR #7- Arias/Alexander forum

I think this is a very important post. Thank you. That took courage. Seriously, thank you for being the devil's advocate in this because you said some things that I was thinking. I came late to this trial. I happened to come across a small part of CMja's testimony and saw a psychopath...

Penalty Phase - Verdict Watch #4

I read frequently but (obviously) hardly ever post. Please be gentle. A few questions: 1. It is my understanding that during jury selection in a death penalty trial the question that is asked is: "Could you vote for the death penalty?" As opposed to: "If you find this person guilty...

Casey and Family Psych Profile #11

I think it is reaching too. I just looked back at CA's testimony. Not really that many over a period of 20+ years, and only the cocker spaniel deaths are even remotely suspicious. 1. Mandy (dog) died before ICA's birth 2. Beau (dog) died at vet 1990. ICA at burial in yard 3. Ginger...

2011.07.03 TRIAL Day Thirty-four - DEFENSE (JB) CLOSING ARGUMENTS

Yes. If I were on the jury I'd be finding JB both condescending and patronizing right now.

2011.06.21 TRIAL Day Twenty-four (Afternoon Session)

This is a defense witness and JB is calling him unresponsive? Funny that. :)
