[Tulessa]

Pain meds are kicking in. I'm going to the bedroom to watch TRY. BBL.

 

[Whome?]

OMG...HELP *barf* I just had a mental image of JB at home looking at himself in the mirror practicing his little questions at the podium

:floorlaugh::floorlaugh::floorlaugh:

 

[Bipolar Express]

Thanks to everyone who has been posting the haps on here today...I havent been able to watch. Going to try now. Thanks again!

 

[nursebeeme]

casey writing writing writing writing writing and W R I T I N G.....

 

[Kimmer]

I think the reason that JB is going over all of the instructions, is because it is something he just learned and he wants to look like the is a good attorney....Barf..

 

[amysmom]

I really, really want them to turn ON the mics..It's beyond frustrating that we can't HEAR when asked if they want to keep or strike the juror. Grrrrrr!

 

[cluciano63]

Jean C. thinks state may still strike him later...

 

[TakeNote]

:laugh:

PJ should have said ok and don't you worry I won't tell anyone you are a lawyer. Yuck, yuck, yuck.

now that was funny!

 

[Softail]

IS saying SA may use a strike on him.... Wishy washy on DP

 

[Capri]

During break, ICA is writing. She's making hash marks llll/, counting up how many jurors, I'm guessing.

 

[nomoresorrow]

I think that is so wrong to have voted that potential female juror and yet the defense has no issue with men with young children!

ETA: Infuriates me!

There it is - pj just said "I think I could hear both sides of the case and SEE WHAT I MISSED" - rut ro - how could he know IF he MISSED anything if he hasn't been following

I think he listens to his wife and since she has been following the case then he will be a great juror for the SA:woohoo:

 

[TotallyObsessed]

Have the DT and Defendant made up? Any interaction? Smiles? Rubbing? Goo-goo eyeing?????

 

[Misfitdolly]

My husband doesn't follow the case but if his wife is anything like me, her husband gets daily Caylee updates.

I gave up trying to talk to my husband about the case way back when. He had absolutely no interest and was bored to tears if I talked to him about it. He would probably honestly say, just as this juror did, that his wife follows it but he doesn't know much about it.

 

[sleutherontheside]

 

[Amil]

Have they quit using the "age as a mitigating factor" question? We could have kept so many jurors if they'd quit earlier. It took 6 hours for the first juror and now they're breezing through them like butter.

 

[Softail]

Casey Jordan on IS suspects he is stealth.

 

[Amster]

sheesh....IS claiming the guy is a stealth juror....wishy washy on DP.....

 

[logicalgirl]

Seems to me, once again, JB is making this all about him. This is how his questioning sounds to me. I believe the purpose is to find out about the juror, not to listen to your own voice....

Q: blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah?

A: Yes

Q: blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah?


A: No

He needs time to practice his Ms Anthony as she sits there today - swing and point gesture from the podium.
