#CaseyAnthony I've noticed a rapport between thirtysonethings male juror 16 and female juror 15.

[QB.]

JA asks that Dr. V be recognized as expert in this field
JB: we object
JP: The doctor is accepted as expert in this field

They have now moved on to discussing this case.

 

[andalso]

What do you think JB's first question to Dr. Vass will be?

 

[Rallihanna]

Oh how I wish they'd open the can.

 

[MissJames]

Dr. Vass' use of the term "the surface INDIVIDUALS " sounds like a term of respect ,in this case. IMO,anyway. I love him!

 

[ami]

Oh my gosh, even Vass's laugh is endearing!

 

[JSR]

Here comes the can!!!!

[Soulmagent]

Opening a box.~

 

[MissDiva]

OK, I have to admit that between the box being right in front of Dr. Vass' face, and Dr. Vass laughing and saying "It's a box" when asked if he recognized it, I'm actually giggling out loud.

 

[logicalgirl]

Dr Vass accepted as an expert witness to the court. Baez objected - ignored by HHJP.

Do we know who ICA is looking at as she looks to her left or to the right of our watching screen? Is she looking at the witness?

 

[jamiect]

They're opening the box that contains the cans with air samples from Anthony's car.

 

[ZsaZsa]

I'm curious as to who the AA woman in pink is that is shown on the first row (to the left of Ashton). She was there yesterday as well and gave CM a hug when she came into the courtroom. Anyone know?

That is Jeanene Barrett, mitigation specialist for ICA, IIRC.

 

[PalmettoGirl]

JA: Do you recognize this box?
Dr. Vass: (laughing) It looks like a box.

 

[ynotdivein]

OMG--wait, could they be going to ask Dr. Vass to open the can and smell it? Is that a crazy thought? That way the jury might not (?) have to smell it but they get to see Dr. Vass's reaction as the expert?

This is crazy thinking, isn't it? But by now the SA has everybody in that room wondering what that can smells like.

 

[Linda7NJ]

Casey looks BORED!

 

[epiphany]

metal can in t box

 

[Marina2]

Baez wanted to get a sniff of the contents of the box.

 

[ColdDayIn]

It's too bad Dr. Vass didn't get to implement his fly on a leash in this case...JB woulda stroked out considering his opinion on cadaver dogs.
