This is replay, isn't it? Surely they would not come back from lunch early. It's Arizona.

 

[Nymeria]

OK NOT live, just a replay.
I give up trying to keep this all straight! :steamed:

(WAT was reporting LIVE in tweets, and it was stuff that I did not see earlier because the stream was not working right....sorry all )

Yes, sorry Worry.
As I said above, replay, but nothing we had seen because of the bad stream.

:sigh:

 

[Worry Wart]

Sometimes I wish it was me and not my brother...Sometimes living with the high expectations of a dead brother r difficult #MarissaDevault

Trial Diva Sharee™ ‏@TrialDivasS 42s
First witness for def is Dr Neil Websdale director of family violence institute #MarissaDevault

 

[Bernina]

Domestic violence = Divorce, maybe a Protective Order, NOT MURDER.

If that's not the case, I would have had 2 dead husbands. Both involved well documented DV LE calls/intervention/charges, and ER visits.

Clusters of factors? This Doc should study my life and tell me WHY I didn't murder........

I hear garbage thrown against the wall........again.

 

[Bernina]

Trial Diva Sharee™ ‏@TrialDivasS 6m
Dr Websdale reviewed the police file, med docs, crime scene data, domestic violence notes from prior incident #MarissaDevault

Dr Websdale is going over risk factors inside relationships that have Inter partner violence #MarissaDevault

 

[Bernina]

Self Reporting= Liar, Liar, pants on FIRE.

Trial Diva Sharee™ ‏@TrialDivasS 41s
Dr Websdale says he does feel #MarissaDevault's behavior is in relation to her childhood and sexual abuse

 

[Bernina]

Trial Diva Sharee™ ‏@TrialDivasS 41s
Judge is asking def to lay some foundation of expertise since Dr Websdale is not a psychologist #MarissaDevault

 

[Nymeria]

Sorry you had to go through that in your life Bernina

 

[rose222]

This sort of explanation makes me want to throw up.

They can examine the murderer's brain post-death penalty verdict/post-death to see why she is such a horrible, evil person but spare me this 'I was abused so I butchered a man' carp please!

 

[Bernina]

Blah, blah, blah..........and some girls are just born evil.
