CA - Joey, Summer, Gianni, Joseph Jr McStay Murders - Feb 4th 2010 #18

We should let some outsiders reading this thread to judge who on this thread are more open minded than whom.

Pick me!!!! I was open minded but now that I have heard the evidence I believe the defendant is guilty BARD.

No I don't pick individuals.

And by the way you used past tense. You were open minded, sigh.

 

[citygirl]

No.I was open minded.

 

[citygirl]

You were open minded is incorrect English.
Sigh and HoHum.
Will now scroll.

Part 1 from today - Sgt Hanke on the stand again

 

[smr]

You were open minded is incorrect English.
Sigh and HoHum.
Will now scroll.

That seems to call for objection based on irrelevance. What's relevant is this:

We're gonna find this individual, or individuals and everyone want’s to bring them to justice. .... And if it’s the last thing I do I wanna, I just wanna know .... that you know, .... when it’s over. Umm.... that’s all.

Part 1 of today's audio was just a total waste of an hour. LOL. Maline went absolutely nowhere with Sgt Hanke. Maline was harping on Hanke's conversations with the towing company guys that picked up the Trooper. Jeez Louise. Maline was obviously trying to worm in some sort of testimony that Merritt couldn't have left the Trooper in San Ysidro if his phone pings *after* 1:30 pm showed he was in Rancho Cucamonga area. The Prosecution even declined to do any sort of cross examination. It was pitiful. And another one bites the dust...

Yeah, that was a vehicle going nowhere. I wish L&C would upload Part 2, it's probably not long nor informative but hey, we're near the end and need to see it through, no matter how inanely it limps to the finish line.

 

[KALI]

I've been wondering. How on earth do you find a 'Peer" Jury for Chase Merritt?
Do they need to be white cons, with a criminal history?
Seriously, who could they ever find who was not already in jail to represent this guy?

 

[KALI]

Of course. Absolutely.
Now, after the evidence. I would vote guilty.
With a heavy heart.
I am still astounded, that anyone would murder this family so cruelly. Their horrific murders take my breath away.
That it was done by someone who called Joey his best friend is even more horrible and scary.
From ALL investigations. Joey was a good man.
Perhaps a naive man to what I call evil.
None of this should have ever happened to this family!
No drugs, no shady business dealings. Just a family with an honest business that hired a devil in disguise.
For me. The murders of this family has me incensed. This awful, terrible, torture, of this family should NEVER have happened.
The inept San Diego Detectives, should NEVER have happened.
My thoughts and Prayers are for Joey and Summers remaining family.

Do you consider yourself to be open minded in terms of this trial?

After listening to it... it was obvious to me that the State did NOT want him to say what the defense wants him to say. And it's also obvious that they can't call Mr. Murray to the stand because he is no longer alive. I will have to go back to Dugal's or the security guys testimony to see what was said in their testimony about Mr. Murray, does anyone recall?

The vehicle's not going anywhere because the wheels came off about 6 or 7 witnesses ago and they need to salvage it.

Chase knows a good towing company out of Chula Vista.

Let me guess, more objections to hearsay and inserting facts not in evidence for the judge to sustain?

Because a witness says something and the prosecution objects does not mean they're trying to hide something.

Maybe it's not what you're inferring, but that seems to be the status quo for the pro-Chase crowd, that the prosecution is being deceitful and misleading when all along this has been the defense's shameless tactics.

BBM...It was obvious with the Judge sustaining so many of the Prosecution's objections that the Judge agreed it wasn't appropriate questioning. (hearsay, beyond the scope, cumulative, no foundation, assumes facts not in evidence, etc etc etc)

The defense should focus more on explaining the backdating of the checks and trying to delete the QB account. That is the nail in his coffin. All this other stuff is not really going to make a $.hit bit of difference to exonerate the two timed felon. Tick tock.

It’s been 4 months and all the PT has managed to do is show CM potentially had motive but so did several others. They have not connected him to the murders whatsoever, they have not produced one iota of physical forensic evidence. All they’ve done is recited a potpourri of innuendos suggesting Merritt’s guilt, not unlike a magic trick relying upon the power of suggestion, repeat something enough times and it must be true.

I will not be swayed until I see reliable evidence linking Merritt to either the alleged crime scene or the burial site.

Pro-Chase.... ok LOL

@MrsPC posted her take on the audio... I posted mine. It's called a difference of opinion to what was obvious. I also asked a question, to which I guess you have no answer?

 

[dlk1949]

Several other possible murderers?

It very well could be the nail in the coffin, which is exactly why they are not trying to "expain" it away. JMO
