2011.05.12 Jury Selection Day FOUR (Afternoon Session)

[Mendara]

oh wow JB said "they are not goign to hit the Buzzard" if the juror is wrong - um I think he meant BUZZER?

 

[Tipstaff]

Thanks Kimster! So we probably won't hear JB and friends flat out ask "Are you a member of WS?"

I so wanted to hear that!!!!!

Happened in the Cooper Murder Trial in Raleigh NC in the last month. A witness from the trial posted that evening. Then a witness was asked if he posted on WS and then the witness read his postings into the court record at trial.

I literally started getting a migraine earlier....it is still coming on....I tried to blame it on barometric pressure as I get migraines during certain weather events....but after visiting the weather channel....

The weather here is clear and so it must be attributed to the absolute nonsense and mental exhaustion of trying to listen to JB string together a coherent thought process.

baez is nicer to the jurors than I thought he might be. I thought he might be rude like he is to everyone else but he's pleasant.

 

[luckyme]

If he is not going to keep this jurror, why keep badgering him?

He is trying to keep the strikes for the women. jmo

 

[snowshuze]

I'm honestly beginning to question whether or not I can actually watch this whole trial.

 

[darcedarce]

PJ just ANSWER yes or NO.

 

[lowens1975]

This is like pulling teeth without the benefits of an anesetic...slow and painful with a lot of prying and screaming. (The screaming is mine.)

:banghead:

BBM

We're doing it in stereo. :floorlaugh: I had to turn the volume off I was grinding my teeth.

HHJP is now asking questions based on the Juror's responses.

HHJP - Look into your heart of hearts and answer frankly. Do you believe you can do it or do you KNOW you can do it - set aside all you've heard/seen?

Juror - I know I can. No hesitation. No, I know I can do that.

HHJP - Okay.

 

[Chiquita71]

HHJP: in your heart of hearts do you know you can do it or do you think you can do it?

I think I know I can do that and set it aside and have an open mind

HHJP: is there any hesitation?

I know I can do that, sure.

HHJP: okay

 

[eaglemom]

HHJP - do you believe or do know you can do it
1129 - i know i can
HHJP any hesitation
1129 - no

 

[KaylynnCouture]

Maybe he DOES want to be on the jury after all.

 

[eaglemom]

death penalty (HHJP) asking for opinion on it

1129 not really no

 

[eaglemom]

1129 personal opinion on death penalty

not for it

 

[Chiquita71]

HHJP: do you have an opinion or philosophy re: the DP.

Not really. It seems it used to be allowed but now states are saying no.

HHJP: what is your personal opinion?


IMHO: this man likes talking. likes being asked his opinion. just answer the questions, please!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Softail]

They need to strike this man. This is a Waste. A Huge Waste!

He is over thinking all of his answers, when he clearly has made up his mind, and is now trying to say what he thinks they want to hear.

 

[PMLsmom]

I do like the way he pauses, it makes me believe he actually thinks before he answers...oops, not for the DP.

 

[gngr~snap]

LOL: Looking up numb hands and conversion disorders!

DSM IV even better?
is that even right? not much psych nursing done here! only 2 weeks in school!!!

 

[MelissaLee]

This Juror is not for the DP - but doesn't know if he's against it. He just knows he's not "for" it.
