2011.06.29 TRIAL Day Thirty-one (Afternoon Session)

[Lexiintoronto]

WFTV reporter is describing this expert's testimony as 'discombobulated'

 

[jane the dood]

Y'know, this lady may be an awesome teacher and great motivational speaker (or so I've read), but she is bombing badly as a credible witness for the defense. I'm talking Hiroshima here. La Bomba.

 

[Wishbone]

So does accepting this witness as an expert give ICA an out so she doesn't have to testify? I have to add I don't understand why JP approved her as an expert.

 

[mombomb]

This witness is causing me grief in trying to transcribe and I believe I am traumatized

 

[Lovejac]

Anyone else get the feeling that she is not use to being challenged?

 

[GiantPickle]

I think they might end with River Cruz.

This witness saying "its normal to go to blockbuster and hump your boyfriend all night the day your baby died" isn't going to go over well no matter how well she speaks etc. No one with an ounce of common sense would buy that. No matter how many initials she has after her name.

 

[newsjunkie]

Every time JA objects, she looks at the jury and smirks. Once, I even saw her raise her eyebrows.

 

[Linda7NJ]

Wow...just wow.

 

[barrysgirl]

Oh JP...tsk...tsk... how in the world could this lady be considered an expert in the field of grieving??

As a nurse, I'm disappointed in her behavior and ego...

You and me both sister.

River Cruz tells source in the hallway, "I'm irate." I expect some drama soon.

She says she has testified 12 times about grief. (civil and criminal cases) #CaseyAnthony -jfell

Well, if she's testified 12 times how come she didn't know this is not "This Is Your Life"?:waitasec:

 

[Leah0107]

Give me a friggin break!

 

[BigFatMommyDog]

Hypotheticals

amazing bond with her child

 

[marie-chantal]

ICA smiled and mouthed 'I'm sorry' to Sally Karioth on the stand

Really?

I wonder why. She must think she's part of the DT and is responsible for getting this witness to testify. :innocent::floorlaugh:

They need to just get this witness off the stand. She's not an expert, she's not testifying in a coherent manner and I'm feeling embarrassed for her. :twocents:

 

[fifteen89]

A hypothetical? Why not just let her examine Casey?

 

[Etiana]

Basic #1 rule. Everyone does grieve differently, that is very true but honest to Pete......

 

[rose222]

Amazing mother!

 

[faefrost]

This must be a case of HHJP trying to stave off an appeal issue. Gotta be.

I think it's more a case of HHJP telling the defense, "you picked up the shovel, you get to dig your own hole". There is NO way anything this crazy person says will in any way help the defense. none.

 

[Shelby1]

omg :floorlaugh:

Peer review? Yes, I was peer reviewed by Marvel Comics, DC Comics, you know the major literary publishers.

 

[Horace Finklestein]

I feel like GA - WHY WHY WHY accept this witness.

 

[Justin Tyme]

Simms - Please add at the hands of her Mother that she died.
