2011.03.02 Motions Hearing - #2 (PM)

[ziggy]

I didn't think LE had any obligation under the law to inform someone they are free to go???

 

[kaRN]

If it's taking all day to discuss the first hour after LE arrived this trial is going to last 8 months.

 

[sleutherontheside]

This LEO is sharp really sharp.

CM is giving hypotheticals. LEO won't play into his hand.

 

[SailorMoon]

Ohh I wish I could hear. Looks like the officer is holding his own though. I wish Perry would comment on Mason's selective hearing. It's so obvious. And OLD.

 

[cloud9]

MASON is making me ILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He ALWAYS makes me ill! But today more than ever!!!

 

[ziggy]

They are trying to assert that Casey did not feel free to go, that she was "in custody" technically.

 

[Mendara]

Why would KC "BOLT" - why does CM keep askign if KC was free to BOLT from the scene?

If she took off running that would be a red flag to chase her? Weird line of questioning.

 

[shellsbells]

I'm sorry but if KC had tried to "bolt" at all that night it would have been incredibly suspicious. She could've but they would have been totally within their right to go after her and pull her in right then and there after she admitting not knowing where her child was for 31 days IMO.

 

[sleutherontheside]

CM realized he can not flap this LEO.

 

[Lera213]

no recross

 

[BigFatMommyDog]

... I think he's stretching it thin with the "surrounded by cops" tactic

 

[Melanie]

What does this have to do with anything. Caysey wasn't arrested, so why would she bolt after he put the handcuffs on her. She didn't bolt. So what's he yappin on about - like this big bad ex-marine cop intimidated this little kitten (KC) to think she couldn't leave, and therefore, thought that she was still under arrest?

Confoosed.

Mel

No re-cross - deputy excused.

 

[strawberry]

Is LDB objecting to anything?

 

[passionflower]

Good job deputy!!!!

 

[beach]

oh my god he just made him tell the court how much he weighs - is he trying to say this guy is intimidating and CA was tiny and so he was a big scary guy.

This is silly. CM is wasting time - this is ridiculous.

Insulting. Still, I don't care what CM tries to throw out there, this guy is as meek as cops come. I can't see any juror finding this guy intimidating. lol

 

[LolaMoon08]

Kid did a good job!!! I would love to take him out for a beer after that! Poor guy!!

 

[mitzi]

LE Ryan E. just breathed a sigh of relief as he came off the witness stand!

 

[ynotdivein]

No re-cross.

 

[snowshuze]

LBD satisfied with his testimony.

 

[Turnadot]

OK, I was iffy at first, but this young man did really well, imo.
