I am just amazed it’s not happened before now to be honest.

I wonder if the juror told them he's out due to it's not going to be over as promised or if it was for some kind of misconduct?

Imo

It sounded like it was a time constraint issue and not a misconduct issue.

Dr. Rudin came up again... Makes me laugh

It’s good in the U.S that you have stand in jury members.

They lost their first juror and have had to call in an alternate.

That alternate must be stoked! I would be.

This close to the end.... I would be ticked LOL Sat there for 4 months... for nuttin

 

[citygirl]

Just listened to the last 30 mins or so of Maline's redirect. I thought he did well. Just not sure how much the jurors are paying attention. Are they glazing over by now ? Repeat of prior testimony,IMO.

Just the opposite. He/She hasn't sat there for nuttin. They are now on board. What they think matters.

 

[citygirl]

I have this odd sense that the DT may be ready to hang it up. Sooner than later. No DK. No TR. And sadly, no James McGee. Mr. Maline stands alone at this point.
Might be time to pack it in. MOO.

 

[citygirl]

Oh my.Dancing pixels.

ohhh I was talking about the one that got to leave lol

sorry, been a long a day, need more coffee, your post clearly says "alternate" LOL

I would think they would be kinda disappointed after being invested for so many months? Real life called and they had to bow out. Maybe we will hear after all is said and done what that juror's vote may have been?

 

[minazoe]

I have been totally overwhelmed with work and unable to check in.

UGH

also I am so disturbed and saddened to learn that Chase will never be executed or put on death row because there will be no death sentencing in the state California.

I understand the anti death position, but with this comes the chance that Chase can see freedom one day, unlikely I know..but it opens the door.
To be saddled with the taking of a life even if it is Chase Merritt is a cruel responsibility for society to be burdened with. Imagine running the execution program at a prison...how horrible and disturbing.

But how do you punish a soulless baby killer and grifter? really nothing will ever get through to him..really there is nobody home. He has no empathy, no guilt.

at least death row , even if no excecution..the claustrophobic hot dark little cells where SP is
would be at least some well deserved torture for CM..

I can't believe no one has killed him in prison yet. God only knows what all he did to that poor family.

mOO

uh oh... they are talking about dates into May being a problem

May 6th - judge not available
May 9th - a juror for a half day
May 16th/20th - jurors have a cruise
week of May 13th is problematic for the prosecution

In otherwords, we will still be here in June/July?

I am hoping not... but nothing surprises me LOL

 

[Tortoise]

So what happened to their phone expert?

Pros said they might put on one or two rebuttal witnesses.

They need to get a grip. Jury has had enough, IMO.
Time to rein it in.

T. IMO the jurors have made up their minds by now, one way or another.
Time to allow them to deliberate. MOO.

But if convicted, he will certainly be a target.
