Bosma Murder Trial 03.09.16 - Day 22

[andreww]

Is that the satchel hanging on Millard's left hip?

OOPS DWO Beat me to it.

LE doesn't have a clue what the two "booms" could be?? Didn't someone here write that train tracks needed to be crossed by the truck that passed by?

Why speculate? Every time they have speculated the Defense shot them down and told them they weren't an expert on the subject. MOO

Okay, now I have seen it! Though in earlier pics he did carry the satchel on his right side (around 5 pics, none with satchel to the left). What means that??

They could have been flipped images.

Or maybe DM is equal opportunist when it comes to man-bags and he shares the love with both sides.

I don't always carry my purse on my left shoulder, sometimes I flip to the right side. Depends whats more convenient at the time for me. Say, if it's in the way of what I'm doing so its not in the way. I don't think it means anything...not to me anyways.

No questions from TD. This makes me think that MS may be taking the stand to tell his side. They are basically agreeing with what the Crown has presented thus far. (with an exception that MS did not shot TB)

Can you imagine what is going to happen in that court room if MS takes the stand? Maybe DM knows he plans to take the stand and that is why he keeps giving him those looks? If he truly feels he was a secondary participant in this, then why not take the stand and defend yourself? MOO

A question for the people that have followed more trials than me.... What does it suggest when one Defense cross-examines but the second does not? I know it is unique to have both tried at the same time so this may be a tough question to answer. What are people's thoughts? Is it that they feel the other Defense asked all the questions that needed to be asked or is it more that they don't have an issue with what the Crown has presented? Or simply they don't see any way to poke holes without looking desperate?

 

[andreww]

The Hangar certainly doesn't look as organized as it did in a lot of the other pics I've seen.

 

[inbetweendoors]

I'm back. And apparently missed nothing

Pillay is done with cross examination. He is filing the segments he presented from the SuperSuckers video as an exhibit. #Bosma

I use a small cross body bag sometimes as well and I usually have the purse part on my right side, unless I am driving (because it interferes with the seatbelt). Maybe it is on his left because he just got out of the car.

What hard evidence is there that Smich was even with Millard that night besides that his phone was in the general area at about that time? No positive IDs, No recognizable security footage, and not one fingerprint. My guess is that this is probably the reason MM avoided prosecution while CN got nailed. Their case against Smich would be weak without her details.

In the words of MS, looks like with the mountain of incriminating evidence the crown presents both DM and MS will be..........'gone gone gone'

Oh..... I like how you think. gone......gone.......gone

 

[Gibson67]

I flipped the image and tried to make it a little clearer...perhaps the surveillance camera is a flipped image..not sure but you can definitely tell it is them. IMO

I commented on how bad the tracks are on Dumfries Rd., but not on Oak Park. There is a set of tracks on Oak Park, but they are smooth, and not really close enough to Bobcat that you'd hear a truck driving over them.

MOO

I don't think the image is flipped. DM's right hand is raised awkwardly. Texting maybe? Is MS wearing sunglasses?

What I notice missing is bloody footprints.

I think RP accomplished all that TD would have wanted accomplished in that cross

Are you forgetting the crown asking Tim Bosmas wife "have you ever seen either of these 2 guys before the evening of May 6th?" And she replied with "no, I had not"

That statement right there identified him as being there.

 

[sab_bri]

I hope the jury takes into account (i'm sure they will) - that DM made an effort to hide the DVR with the footage from the hangar. Why would someone do that if they had nothing to hide?

 

[SomeITGuy]

I'm really hoping that we get to see the exhibit from yesterday & today, I (and I'm sure many others) want to investigate the footage ourselves.

 

[BoaterChick]

Just a guess but the crown may be working with MM right now on prepping her for her testimony.

Her Facebook page has been at least partially public all this time and then suddenly today, she is now on Facebook under a pseudonym with that page locked down tight.

I still don't understand why the Crown didn't ask it in a more straight-forward way. For example, if I were to ask you right now "have you ever seen me prior to today?", your answer would be "no" and would not answer if you actually saw me today or not, which you didn't. If it was asked differently..."are those the 2 men you saw on May 6th?"..."yes"...leaves no room for interpretation. MOO
