I have been thinking of something...with the jury being out it seems like forever, I was thinking of reasonable doubt and what reasonable doubt they could possibly come up with.
-Virgillo being outside (would mean Vergillo is for some reason lying)
-But I reasoned in an above post that Vergillo would have to have gone out/not-paid-attention after the taser incident, b/c obviously he was keeping tabs on things if he shot the taser at Danny. (he admitted he went outside for a couple of seconds with the OC spray, but obviously came back to the action b/c he went on to fire his taser).
-but let's just forget why and just say he went outside after that (for some unknown reason). So then Chrisman is inside with Danny alone.
-if he is inside alone, yes, people can stretch and think that he might have perceived a threat from Danny and the bike (have to go a/g the forensic evidence which shows Danny could not have been holding the bike up like Chrisman said, but anyway).
-to get to above conclusion, you would have to believe the situation was out of Chrisman's control and he felt overwhelmed.
-you would also have to believe that Danny was being uncooperative/struggling/fighting....
Which leads me to....what if some jurors question why Vergillo took part in the OC spray-ing/taser-ing of Danny? I'm really worried about this point, if one or more jurors is looking for an excuse to believe all of the above. We know that Danny's actions were a direct response to Chrisman's assault on him and his immediate aggravated assault of Danny with the gun-to-temple incident. But what if some in the jury think that it was just Danny being uncooperative, and that Virgillo must have thought the same if he participated in the OC spray and taser-ing of Danny. From there, they might go on and think, maybe the situation got out-of-control and Chrisman reacted.
Just some thoughts, we never know what some jurors might be thinking.
