GUILTY - Tammy Moorer trial for Kidnapping Heather Elvis, 8 Oct 2018 #5

[Chelly]

Tammy is calm. I was expecting a meltdown or tears at the very least. I was wrong.

But the best part, they are finally being held accountable for their actions! All the times the gag order was violated, postings from the kids SM accounts, the endless rants, thinking laws were for everyone but them, well, now with their Momma's freedom on the line, they are held accountable for their actions!

I don't understand why this was not addressed before Monday. Is it because the defense had not started their case till today ?

What can the jury be thinking about the delay this morning?

The issue was not addressed UNTIL the defense called one of the violators to testify.

It's just my opinion but it seems like these kids have been raised with the impression that they can do whatever they want with no consequences. Add into that the blatant disrespect and attitude from the oldest and it looks like she's raising a whole new generation of little Tammy's. Sad.

Someone upthread mentioned that the State waited until they were called as witnesses.

That's a FML face if I've ever seen one!

When he turned and I saw his face, the first word that popped to my mind was 'ashen.' Dude was shook. I felt so bad for him. Defense work can suck, this is one of those times he's probably wondering why he didn't just go into wills and estates.

Best part is the Deputy that testified is the one watching over TM three feet away.

I was missed the part explaining who Robert McGowan is . Is he a friend of the family ? a witness ?

 

[bestill]

So I guess the kids and PC can be in the court room now.

...and.....after State learned Tammy would testify. mic drop imo

 

[Hatfield]

We even heard from the prosecution that each time someone (assuming LE officer or someone else) would try to go into the sequester room that they were BLOCKING THE DOOR.

That was enough for me to know they totally knew they were in the wrong and watching.

They needed time to hide their cell phones or turn off the computer screen.

Im flabbergasted as to them blatantly going against the court rules.

And yeah I wish there were Contempt Charges on them because of all the waisted money spent by all legal staff and witnesses if this trial ends up getting a retrial or mistrial because of this.

 

[Knox]

Its unfortunate that the kids feel they are not subject to rules. We know after all this time that their parental units are horrible examples. Shoot even Polly can't provide the right guidance. I really worry about their futures.

 

[2Hope4]

Interesting that the defense attorneys aren't talking with Tammy. Aren't telling her how the trial will be now, what changes they need to make.

 

[PeterThomasFan]

I was missed the part explaining who Robert McGowan is . Is he a friend of the family ? a witness ?

One of the few that think SM & TM are innocent. Character witness for TM. So, IMO a friend.

Added: he has some seedy/questionable info concerning Det. Large, who was the original investigator that served warrants on the compound. Trying to throw in a twist and make the M's appear to be the victims.

 

[Carolina Girl]

We can not take cell phones into our Courthouse, period.

 

[Chelly]

Kudos to The State for being so cagey. The team has been planning this for days and Defense was unprepared.

 

[bestill]

Lots of people in court room today.
