I'm new to WS, so I'm not sure if I've linked this properly and/or if this question is relevant (since it is about the trial procedure) and in the right place.
Sam Kraemer TV was live.
Yesterday at 7:38 PM
LIVE: Recapping closing arguments & six guilty verdicts in the murder trial of Patrick Frazee
starting at approximately 38 min.
I'd like to understand why the defense (AS) requested that they (the defense) be notified if the jury requested to see video or hear audio more than twice.
@PearlyGirl - welcome to WS -- this was an incredible case to follow and 68 threads later we're still here!
I think AS wanted a "heads up" if the jury wanted to review those pieces of evidence more than twice to judge the deliberation. Maybe he was trying to gauge if they would reach a verdict on Monday afternoon or return to deliberate on Tuesday (i.e, not a slam dunk decision). AS may have been tasked with having to tell the Sheriff whether or not to return PF to the jail sooner than later as it appears that PF was kept in a holding room at the courthouse.
