I am so angry. What Nurmi is doing is inexcusable. Yet another full day of testimony with maybe 20 minutes worth of valid, relevant information.
INAL so I'm making up my own 'rule' here - there SHOULD be a rule against a lawyer who, after the witness/defendant answers a question,
(hypothetical:
Lawyer asks: "What happened after you got to the house?"
Answer: "Well after we got to the house, I did a load of laundry and took the dog for a walk and noticed there was a message on my answering machine."
Lawyer should be FINED or put in time out if he THEN asks:
"So after you went to the house you did what?"
"Did you walk the dog?"
"Was laundry done?"
"Did you notice you had a message waiting?"
Nurmi re-asks EVERYTHING... it's just wrong. Especially considering how meaningless so much of this is - it is inexcusable (now JA is talking about cookie recipes and Napoleon and meeting someone who wasn't rude and knew Travis wasn't home, who went into Travis' office and Napoleon went TOO! Back to the cookie recipe high end recipe, dough refrigeration...)
Why are they using the term "interrogation" re Deanna? Oh right.
Back to the letter they've already gone over. This must be ticking the jury off, too. They have LIVES that Nurmi has completely dismissed for spending hours on very high-school type interactions that have NOTHING to do with self-defense or Travis being viciously killed.
Maybe Nurmi wants to lose. This is such an insult to everyone - including the defendant, the jury, the witnesses, the experts, the families, the citizens in the gallery, the state, the taxpayers...
Yet ANOTHER day of NOTHING.
(sorry - rant over).
