Wow wth just bloody speechless jmoo

 

[Gardenista]

What a joke

 

[afitzy]

The nanny is my guess. Or maybe he was so delusional that he thought the school would call him but I doubt that JFd had that sort of emergency plan in place.

FD wasn't authorised to pick up children so the JF backup pickup was LA imo. Perhaps she had another local friend as well, but FD had been banned from NCCS for prior infractions. MOO

Was the discussion yesterday re: MT's computer in front of the jury? MOO that doesn't bode well for her just on a personal/character level

No jury yesterday. Judge was quite smart imo in that regards.
MOO

 

[nodamselindistress]

First time I have seen Judge with a regular tie, not a bow tie

 

[Megnut]

No fireworks.

Judge admonishes the galley.

Jury entering.

 

[LovesPeace2]

So disappointing jmoo

 

[glassheater]

Why so much preferential treatment?

 

[Diddian]

So PO'd. This judge applied "relativism" - describing events that occurred (one of JFD's longtime friends reporting the defendant's blatant violation of the judge's order on sealed document) as "competing families" rather than holding defendant or her mother accountable for their behavior in contempt of court and in continuing contempt of the primary victim in this case.

 

[Megnut]

State's Witness, Banker. Didn't catch his name.

 

[afitzy]

What a joke

So agree.

MT loses computer BUT NOT HER PHONE.
Mama Troconis stays in Court WITH HER PHONE and is no doubt in communication with MT.
NO CONTEMPT HEARING FOR weeks.
Atty Felson simply stands up and blames the camera operators and media for taking pictures of their equipment in the Courtroom.

BUT, big question:
HOW IS JUDGE R PROTECTING THE DISCREDITED REPORT FROM ENDING UP ON SOCIAL MEDIA IN THE INTERIM?

Judge R did ZERO IN THIS REGARD.

Simply a farce imo as State didn't focus on the report in the interim either...so much for protecting the victims...

MOO

 

[J-Kat]

He should have banned Michi’s cell phone as well. Her family got off too easy.

 

[nodamselindistress]

So disappointing jmoo

Getting used to being disappointed in this case

 

[afitzy]

So PO'd. This judge applied "relativism" - describing events that occurred (one of JFD's longtime friends reporting the defendant's blatant violation of the judge's order on sealed document) as "competing families" rather than holding defendant or her mother accountable for their behavior in contempt of court and in continuing contempt of the primary victim in this case.

His choice of going 'tit for tat' between competing parties is such an awful approach as the drama will continue and no doubt escalate.

Thought Judge R was better than this but I guess not.

Disappointing.
MOO

 

[Megnut]

Entering bank video into evidence.

 

[Megnut]

Video shows FD and MT in the vehicle

 

[glassheater]

Disbelief. judge is treating it as if MT stole a cookie from the cookie jar and is punishing the person who reported the theft more than the thief.

 

[afitzy]

MT has no laptop.

They probably took it and had it wiped or disposed of.
State should have immediately had it seized imo.
So disappointed here in Both JUDGE R and State.
They did zero to protect victims and make sure the report doesn't hit the internet.
MOO

Disappointing.
MOO

I agree, I expect this to escalate the drama between the two sides. should be an interesting "pep rally" on the courthouse steps during lunch break today.

 

[Megnut]

JS: I just had a couple of questions...

Disappointing.

It IS an awful approach because by applying that approach this judge just lent validation to this defendant's claims to LE (and others) that she was victim to JFD's power plays.
