2011.07.03 TRIAL Day Thirty-four - DEFENSE (JB) CLOSING ARGUMENTS

[Rallihanna]

I get it now- GA is to blame, RK is to blame, CA is to blame, the police are to blame, the analysts are to blame. Bring them all to trial right now!

 

[Friday]

My jaw is aching from gritting my teeth!

Mine is too!

 

[Granna6]

Wow, if that easel and board get knocked over, will the entire courtroom erupt into guffaws?

 

[Quiche]

DC was comic relief? What?!

 

[KR2tonenow]

If it doesn't fit - you must acquit - that's what JB is going for!

 

[GreenTeam]

Did he just say DC is "a strange man to say the least?"

 

[JSR]

Poor George.

I noticed that Lippman has been sitting between GA and CA all day. Wonder if there are problems there with everything that has happened during this trial.

I'm sure there are problems. Remember CA has been in the same room (albeit not in communication that we know of) with ICA for many days in a row. I'm sure CA is under the spell of ICA again and expected GA to "fall on the sword" for their murderous daughter. I imagine CA will file for divorce as soon as this case is over. And it might be the best thing for GA because GA will never live down him being honest on the stand and not falling on the sword for ICA.

 

[Curious Me]

JB has removed ICA from the equation by openly accusing GA, and casting doubt on both GA and CA's witness testimony. It has a dirty feel to it though. Do the jurors feel that way?

 

[21merc7]

Now calling Dominic C strange and provided comic relief. Again his own witness and he puts him down.

 

[Turnadot]

I agree with JB, and I'm glad somebody finally had the guts to say it.

My opinion only

You agree with making fun of someone's suicide attempt?

 

[Beyond Belief]

he hasn't even gotten to mr kronk yet and the tainted recovery scene.

 

[Steft50]

Yes, JB seems fixated on GA for some reason--has a real ax to grind with him. I've said throughout that this has seemed more like GA's trial than Casey's.

I think this goes back to the early days where GA was trying to get Casey to talk with an FBI agent, and when he was trying to get Casey to check other lawyers. If memory is right, both GA and LA tried to get her to check into other lawyers because they didn't like or trust Baez.

 

[Zoe Bogart]

Now he's saying D Casey is a strange man and provided us with comic relief. What?

 

[JBounds]

Who taught all those professionals to lie then? I guess they all learned to lie from the A's too.

 

[IfIMay]

uh.. Dominic Casey was BAEZ's employee. I hope LDB reminds the jury of that.

 

[Nenato5]

Please explain to me why Casey spent three years in jail for an accident--Baez is as crazy as Casey!!!

 

[Steely Dan]

Baez: "George threw Casey under the bus".

Wwwwwwhat?! Ugh.

It must be opposite day.

 

[pinkfly]

I don’t think GA was allowed to ask a lot of things

 

[Horace Finklestein]

This is neverending. What a garbled maniacal mess.

 

[Brassband]

If Baez is going to talk about every single person who took the stand he's going to need more than 4 hours. We had 6 weeks of witnessess for goodness sake.
