2011.04.08 Frye Hearing Thread

[Melanie]

Uh oh. HHJP not in a good mood.

I would tend to agree. Do you think it was because of the PP presentation?

"An expert could be a farmer." JA



LOVE IT!

 

[Whome?]

JB arrived about 6 minutes late.

I'd slink into court late too, after that misspelled diatribe he gave Wednesday JMHO :innocent:

 

[nursebeeme]

it will be up to the jury to decide

JA

 

[ynotdivein]

JA: State has no burden in this issue because this is not a Frye issue....

 

[MelissaLee]

JA "State has no burden in this issue." Up to the DT

 

[Softail]

JA done. Short and sweet.

DCS back up.

 

[Chiquita71]

JA: none of that addresses the issues. Issues are relevance, which cannot be addressed pre-trial. Dr. Hall is a qualified botanist. Dr. Hall is allowing the jury to understand better how long these things might have been out there. I would submit the state has no burden because the state has said this is not Frye. This is not the trial, the people watching now are not the jury. No president to exclude. It will be up to a jury to decide if dr. hall or the other is right, or reject both. As this is written it must fail. Thank you.

DSIMMS: wanting to respond.

 

[sleutherontheside]

"This motion as written must fail." JA

 

[nursebeeme]

holy night.... DS needs to save the arguments for the trial!!!

From Twitter (CFNews13Casey): Cindy Anthonys courtroom companion has arrived. She told me George is suffering from allergies at home.

Hello! So am I! But I'm at work! Here's a hint: Zyrtec!!

I think the Judge is unhappy because the Florida court system is in a major money crunch, and IMO about 80% of this Frye hearing has been a huge waste of time and money, and IMO HHJP agrees with me.

 

[Melanie]

HHBP sounds as if he's at the end of his rope.

IMHO he seems kinda sad today. Could be just the way I'm reading him, but his very low voice is disconcerting. I don't think he's up for games today, so JB best be very careful.

MOO

Nice way to skate over the New York case. You wanted it out but now you qualify it with "in Florida"?

 

[darnudes]

lol well said.

 

[Softail]

DCS talking about hair and decomp. She has PP up, but can't read it.

 

[Chiquita71]

DSimms: there is no scientific working groups for root growth. There are no standards for it.


(aggggggggggggg. i am sorry my finger slipped)

That could very well be, Lanie - thank you. This is a huge situation!

 

[nursebeeme]

on to hair decomp

but wanted to also say that JA said Miss Simms was using case law for the plants that was not included/cited in her motion

 

[logicalgirl]

Hmm - I am on clickorlando and the sound is not keeping up with what JA is saying. Simms back up with rebuttal now comparing Dr Bock to Dr. Hall.

Moving on to Karen Lowe and hair decomp.
