2009.10.12 New Defense Motion-Modify Access to Crime Scene Photos

[truckengirl]

I find it funny that JB is asking for this after receiving the results of insect testing last week. And JB my fingers are tappin tapping tapping waiting on you to have BC release those results, what's the hold, do the results prove Casey had Caylee in the trunk, sure has shut you up.

 

[Macushla]

Whoa - hang on a second, here! #3 of the motion says "Furthermore, Denfense's experts need to compare photos side by side, zoom in and out,blow up and/or manipulate the images in various ways......

Isn't that one of the things they accused the state of doing with the photos of the duct tape around Caylee's skull? So let me get this straight, it's ok for the defense to manipulate photos but not the state? Oh My!

 

[christee]

Thx a bunch MM!
BTW, I'm the same way abt spelling, typos jump out at me!

 

[cecybeans]

Thank goodness JB sounds as bad as he writes. Delay delay delay. He must type with his feet.

What exactly is hard about setting up a citrix server?

Then everyone can log into the server and work from the server as if it was their own desktop computer. No big deal. The applications needed are loaded on the server so they don't even need to have a copy of the app themselves. And the citrix client is a free download even though the server software costs money. Of course, they would need to have a decent server to begin with and internet access ( I assume that JB knows that he would need internet access that would allow him to run a server). So he would need a business class account with one of the high speed providers.

Good lord! Spend a little money and have an IT guy/girl come in and take care of it. It could be set up and running in no time.

Muzikman, you are so awesome! Thanks for all you do to keep us informed and up to date. I imagine in my mind every night before going to sleep that Caylee is watching over us and smiling at all of the folks that are working so hard to see justice for her - you are definitely one of those folks. : ) Also, as far as JB and AL are concerned I say, stop your whining and learn to spell!! Like you, misspelled words drive me crazy, especially on signs but legal documents, I am appalled - they need to go back to grammer school for god's sake!

Went to the Clerk's office today and found a bunch of new motions filed by the defense, doesn't look like media has them yet... A bunch of them (97 pages) have to do with the Fraud trial, so I may start a separate thread for those.

For the Murder trial there is the Defense's reply to the SA's response to dismiss due to Spoliation. I'll add that motion to that thread.

This one - Motion To Modify Crime Scene Photos Access for Defense Experts - has the title spelled wrong. Compeling should be Compelling. I noticed some other spelling errors (paragraph 3, Severally should be Severely) I'm picky about spelling. Jeez Jose, you could at least spell the words in the title correctly! :waitasec:

Welcome back Muzikman. Thanks so much for picking up these docs... and all the others you've gotten for us. ITA about the spelling. It's really ridicuouss! LOL

Glad you had fun on your working holiday. NOLA is a fun place to go.

IIRC, JB was all over it at the hearing about how he was positive he could set up a secure server (and despite many experts who said it would be difficult to maintain true security). It amazes me that he has waited eight months and only after a poke in the rear with a sharp jab from the Pros has he even acted like he was trying to examine them.

For a man who railed about not having access to the crime scene and later the photos, he sure took he sweet time snoring all summer long. Must be sick of Geraldo's yacht parties. What does this guy even DO all day? Wait for AL to call and give him instructions?

 

[christee]

MM, while you were gone, there was speculation you had been kidnapped...but we collectively decided to wait 31 days, go out clubbing, and get tattoos before we started looking for you.

OMG, AZ-I had a brief moment of panic when I read the first few words of your post! I thought for a sec, WTH, did somethin' happen to our MM while I was on vaycay?:waitasec: :martini:
Now I need a Kleenex to wipe my eyes and blow my nose from lmao.

:laugh: :slap:

:martini:

 

[christee]

That was good! I'm glad I was on my old Mac Mini instead of my new Macbook, because I literally spit grape soda all over the keyboard and screen!

Glad to be back. Was on a "working vacation". I did get to spend Saturday night on Bourbon Street in NOLA, man was that FUN!!! Debauchery at it's finest. :woohoo:

Oooh, "Debauchery" :winko:
Care to share? :blushingsmiley:

He probably can't. Bourbon Street details tend to be blurry...

Well see,JB is having trouble finding a celebrity IT person,willing to work free of charge in exchange for the publicity.

Another issue that's brought up here is that:

5. The Defense's experts have already been precluded from inspection the majority of the physical evidence from the crime scene..

http://www.docstoc.com/docs/document-preview.aspx?doc_id=13087553

At the hearing on January 8, Baez had a major hissy-fit because it cost too much money to fly his experts to Florida to examine crime scene evidence and the photographs.

The fact is, the defense is not precluded from inspecting the crime scene evidence, they just don't want to spend the $$ to do so. While this relates to the "spoliation" issue, it also points out that the defense has too many people to fly in to be effective.

As to the duplicating or printing of the pictures, the judges main concern was that the pictures of the body would be "leaked" and he has no jurisdiction outside the State of Florida.

I have a strong feeling our dear judge will allow them to duplicate and manipulate those photos all they want, providing it is done under lock-down conditions in the Florida lab.

 

[Dear Prudence]

He probably can't. Bourbon Street details tend to be blurry...

what happens in New Orleans stays in New Orleans........because you can't remember a thing after all those Hurricanes you drank at Pat O'briens

 

[sleutherontheside]

A bit OT so I apologize in advance. DH walked into the room and I was telling him all about how MM is back ONE day and he's already back on top of the docs. Then he saw the MM you rock our world comment and he says....."so do I need to be worried"? I told him not yet, but the trial hasn't started yet and I'd let him know. Hee Hee

 

[BeanE]

I just thought of a solution to this problem. Perhaps JB could call JT over at Techbay and enlist some assistance in this matter. Maybe he'd get a discount?? Sarcasm intended.

:floorlaugh:

Oh God I can't stop laughing. Good one, Sleuther!

BBM in color.
That last sentence is not digesting for me....Please Help.
You mean the Judge will allow KCs team to manipulate the truth by playing with pictures?
Because why alter the picture if not to change something?
I am lost on that last sentence.

I don't think they are referring to altering the photos when they say manipulation. IMO, they want to be able to enhance, skew, reverse, enlarge, color correct, etc....the photos that they view so they can see the details THEY are looking for. As much as JB and his antics irritate me, the word manipulate just mean handle in this reference. No worries.

Okay and who's fault is it they waited 8 mths..WOW way to be on top of it Jose, keep up the great work!
