Four, I think. They tried to keep the kids out of the trial as much as possible. I'm sure it's been officially reported on in the news though.

Like this line of questioning toward Tracy's mom by the state.

I hope the judge notes that the defendant has shown no remorse for his actions in his statement. He’s defiant and doesn’t think he did anything wrong. He doesn’t deserve mercy.

IMO this judge has a clue. He's probably as livid as we are.

I doubt it. Every time the camera pans to him he looks like he could give a flying fart. It may be an up and down foot/knee bc he's worried about how much more damaging info will come out.

I know. I was just joking. He’s not shaking today to my chagrin.

is the defense trying to say Tim and wife tried to keep all the kids apart. audio is so bad, plus I don't know any of these people or what the relavence is

Fiona and Nola SPEAKING TRUTH!!! You go kids!!!

Oh my mistake. I thought the second statement was from the son.

 

[Wishbone]

This seems more like a trial than impact statements......

 

[Jurisprudence]

Oh her mother is losing her temper. What is her plan when Tracy goes to trial ... if she even does. Once this sentence is handed down, depending on what it is, we may see a quick plea.

Haha this witness is a liar! Judge knows the score. Defense tries to throw a lifeline to the witness and judge says nope come to the bench! Omg! The witness is like “I’m caught off guard here.” Yeah that’s what happens when you’re lying. Poor Pierce! Geez!

Edited to add - That was Tracy’s mother?? Of course. That makes sense now. I forgot the youngest was adopted by the maternal grandparents.

 

[Gypsy Road]

Is this Tim’s mom?

Why she so testy?

 

[Gypsy Road]

DANG! This lady is something else! I would never act like that in court! Is this Tim’s mom or Tracy’s? Apple didn’t fall far from the tree if so.

Can't remember. I think RF and one of the sisters was adopted I know the baby is their biological child.

Older sister was adopted from China. She was the one whose testimony the jury wanted to hear over, and they got shortly into it, and they had a decision. She's is EXTREMELY bright, sensitive, and astute.

Note: The Ferriters released all the kids who spoke against them to outside caretaking. They had their one child who couldn't speak adopted into family. IIRC this is the only child they have contact with. So, yes, they have abandoned their children for speaking up. That's both Tracy and Tim.

Did this defense atty object saying victim statements are only for next of kin??? These are his sisters!!

How are Tim's parents "victims"?

Throw the key away on both mom and dad...disgusting that they were ever allowed to adopt children

Self-defense????

Judge “I think that’s a novel argument”

 

[Jurisprudence]

If Tracy's mother did lie, I suspect Briana Coakley will pursue it.

Just a guess

The defense was objecting to the statements by the sisters that prosecutor was reading saying “victim impact statements are only for the victim and next of kin” lol

I'm experiencing the poor audio too. A few times it cut out completely. Though, I believe they were saying someone was keeping the kids apart, who I am not sure. Look forward to reading the articles about today's sentencing later.
