2011.06.16 TRIAL Day Twenty (Afternoon Session)

[illek46]

I believe that they found heart sticker residue on the duct tape and it was applied by ICA, I just don't think it was the 'puffy' heart. If I remember the measurements, the duct tape sticker was bigger than the puffy one.

Agreed. IMHO, the state should have left the "puffy" heart out of the evidence and relied more on the testimony of the FBI examiners who saw the residue.

OK, take a breather from Casey Anthony.

We need searches to show up Friday, Saturday and Sunday to help us find Michelle Le in Hayward California.

Please click right here for all the details.


We need yellow(yellow) tagging tape. You know the tape surveyors use to mark off property? We need a lot for the searchers.


If you are planning to go to the search please contact me ASAP so I can arrange for you to buy some of the tape and take it to the search center.
email [email protected] or send me a private message.

that poor witness was so happy to get off that stand!! Felt bad for her as she was really nervous.

 

[jmfstl]

Haha JB tries to sneak in a question about suspects and DNA

JA objects

JB withdraws the question

HHJP excuses the witness

JB wants a sidebar before the next witness.

 

[Solomisskitty]

All kidding aside, how on earth can the other DT attorneys allow JB to continue as lead attorney with the performance he is giving today? His ineptness is giving our proud judicial system a bad name, not to mention the practice of law.

 

[QueenD]

LOL, notice how low JA trys to sound now when he objects. He starts out high then lowers his voice. I think he is just loud in general.

 

[Robyn623]

Anything interesting happen for the past 2 hours? I had to run some errands. Thx!

 

[Plumeria5]

Gee, somebody shoot me!!!!

Just keep repeating...

JB skipped the whole part of the story about who disposed of Caylee and what happened during opening statements. If the sticker evidence seems like it is tied to the body or that jury is buying it (and I do buy it), why not just imply through questioning that ICA was so heart-broken about leaving her baby with GA to be disposed of, she handed George the sticker to be placed with the body. The sticker doesn't have to be sinister, if the Defense spins it right and of course you believe their theory. She "could've" handed it to GA and not know that GA put the duct tape on the body or where he put the sticker. Of course, I don't believe it happened this way, but the defense could spin it that way instead of trying so hard to shoot the whole sticker residue down. I think admitting she gave it to GA for a part of their defense would do better than trying to discredit it. But, just my opinion of the matter.

Hope that made sense.

I can't think of any way that he could imply that through questioning that would be allowed by the court. imo

 

[HMSHoney24]

Is it just me or did the PT's witnesses seem MUCH more knowledgeable, capable, intelligible, even better natured, etc..., than the DT's ?

For the most part, IMO, today has been maddening to try to follow. Not to mention the demeanor and testimony of the DT's witnesses hasn't exactly been gripping. Zzzzzz.

 

[Celt1997]

Garbage bags? Laundry bag.

ETA. They have already admitted Caleey drowned.

Again, those are things that can be accessed by anyone in the A home. So, if the defense is running with an Anthony coverup, then eliminating the heart sticker is important.

As to the PP about the car, I'm sure they will attempt to discredit that, as well.

Look, I'm with you all about what I think about the case, but JB isn't doing a terrible job at trying to strike at certain key elements.

 

[BetteDavisEyes]

Contrary to Bill S' previous comment about the defense moving at a snail's pace and the trial lasting until Christmas, they seemed to whip through a slew of witnesses in a short period of time. I agree with a previous poster who said that the DT weren't prepared for a defense on behalf of their client as they expected her to be acquitted by HHJP yesterday.

 

[Anakerie]

Wow.. I love how the prosecutors do their cross.. Just a few questions to get their point across.. Such a change from the meandering questions that Baez does... Even during the prosecution CIC, I don't remember being as lost or as close to falling asleep during the prosecution's questions as I am for the <modsnip> messes...

 

[Ada]

The sticker shape & the heart shaped sticker is one of the main things that the State is using to link the body to ICA. Take away that heart impression & the sticker, how do you connect ICA to the body?

The blanket? We know that blanket was at the house, and all of those at the house had access to it.
The Car? We know that several people had access to the car?

Without the sticker and its connection to ICA's sticker collection, you suddenly introduce several other options to who had access to the body.

And anybody in the house also had access to the heart stickers, as they were apparently left behind at the A's house. So, I guess it's going to come down to which Anthony is most likely to have done it. :waitasec:

 

[PlainJaneDoe]

Au contraire. Root canals serve a useful purpose.

And it's far from boring. Trust me...I don't get novocaine 'cause I have had bad reactions to the -caines in the past. :silenced:

They don't have much choice about it since JB is Lead Attorney

 

[Niner]

one of MANY sidebars... so far...

 

[Mountain_Kat]

Not really. Minor score from JB, big whop over the head from LDB asking, "Was this a trash dump?"

That's about it.

The last time anyone saw Caylee alive was with ICA who claimed to be taking her to the imaginary nanny's house so that she could go to her pretend job.

Wow, I had missed the court reporter was wearing purple too!
