2011.06.15 TRIAL Day Nineteen (Morning Session)

[grammieto5]

I thought in their OS the DT said baby Caylee died on the 16th in a drowning????

 

[ami]

CM: No evidence of premeditation. If evidence, must be inconsistent with any innocent explanation.

(Which innocent explanation was there for chloroform google? Hmmm...)

 

[GiantPickle]

he is making a few points with me. but she's still guilty.

 

[sunsetbeach]

At close of evidence, we are entitled to present an argument for aquittal.

If the evidence is insufficent to warrant a conviction, then the court must step in and aquit.

(They are asking for an aquittal from Perry)

They won't get one. :floorlaugh: no matter how hard they try.

 

[cityslick]

I wonder if this ever works? IF this is standard stuff has the judge ever said "you're right" Dismissed!

There have been cases in the past where the judge has dismissed the case due to lack of evidence. There is also been cases where the DT asks the judge to recuse himself due to bias and that has happened as well.

 

[Kat]

CM: No evidence of premeditation.

 

[Oakley]

Is he for real????? "No evidence." ???????

 

[Mountain_Kat]

Caylee died as a result of a crime committed against her. And that's all I'm going to say about that.

Premeditation-schremeditation.

 

[yllek]

I think the fact that the medical examiner officially deemed the death a "homicide" is the only argument needed to refute what Mason is citing to support acquittal. There is a ton more to refute it, but that alone, imo, quashes his accident claim.

 

[fifteen89]

There is no evidence of drowning either - JB's opening statement isn't evidence.

 

[Serjen]

I think right now JP is hearing Charlie Brown's teacher's voice "Whomp whomp whomp" and just waiting til he gets to say "Motion denied- now go home and do your homework before you begin your fairy tale testimony tomorrow."

 

[laura08]

so when a child or anyone is found with tape on the mouth & nose that isn't a sign of murder? Placed in trashbags and placed like trash in the woods wth is he going with this.

 

[strawberry]

Why would GA cover up Caylee's death so CA wouldn't get mad, then go to LE and point the finger at ICA (since DT is using this as evidence)? THEY MAKE NO SENSE

 

[passionflower]

The state rests on the same day 3 years ago that Caylee was last scene.....JUSTICE FOR CAYLEE! Ironic to me!!!

 

[SyraKelly]

The DT can rest their case without presenting a case?

they can if they believe the SA did not prove their case

 

[2goldfish]

Far more cases end with a whimper than a bang. Have faith. There is always the things that need to be presented after the DT team is done....providing that the judge doesn't feel that she is innocent and grant this motion and just send her home with her proud parents today.
:floorlaugh::floorlaugh::floorlaugh::floorlaugh:

OOOOHHHHH my goodness, I know that wont happen but as I read your post and pictured it, I nearly barfed in my lap. wouldnt that be SICKENING.

 

[Horace Finklestein]

Does he know what "reasonable" means?

 

[TiaM]

CM getting louder (although not clearer) and enjoying his GRANDSTANDING moment. :banghead:

Of course, I am thankful Baez isn't making this arguement. We'd be here until 5pm before he would ever get to his point - if he had one, or if he could remember it. :loser:

 

[Celt1997]

I wonder if this ever works? IF this is standard stuff has the judge ever said "you're right" Dismissed!

A precursory look at my Criminal Law studies showed that I couldn't find one that was dismissed after the State CIC, but I'm sure the DT will cite some from somewhere.

 

[rosepetal1065]

Um...how can CM say "there's no evidence to prove when she died, how she died, and who was present when she died" when the DT itself claims to know all of these things? :banghead:

I just yelled something similar to this at my husband........:maddening:
