LIVE MSM COVERAGE on BABY LISA - 24 OCTOBER 2011

[Donjeta]

:waitasec: Is the attorney assuming the box was emptied out by LE to compare what was left in the box?

You would think LE would have taken the box of wine with them as evidence.

But, but, but, it couldn't have been emptied by the mother and her friend :crazy:

We want deniability in case her drunken state turns against her at some point.

Why the spin? I have to continue to ask myself this question in these cases. Why not maintain quiet counsel and wait for the investigation to be completed rather than spin stories?

Snark alert.
He's been talking to the CMA Foundation? Now called Canine Malfeasance Associates, president Cindy Anthony, nurse of decomp and all around expert on everything. VP, Jose Baez, who wanted to be treasurer, but Cindy said NO. And Dr. Fairgrieve, who has testified in two court cases that dogs can't tell the handler what he smells, and therefore...

Good one! :crazy:

I didn't watch the shows yet this morning. Since LE didn't take the bedroom carpet. Does anyone have a guess on what carpet was removed? TIA.

They did not take any carpet with them.

I'm pretty sure that it came from the shed, but they didn't actually take it.

Nevermind. It was just a quick blurb.

JMO but a defense attorney would do this to sway public opinion and taint a potential jury pool.

I'm guessing to taint the jury pool, plant doubt ahead of time? But then they often complain that they can't get an impartial jury because of all of the media coverage.

Regardless of my opinion about the mom's part in baby Lisa's disappearance, I think her attorney Joe Tacopina is doing a passionate job of defending her. He also said in another interview that if he thought she was guilty he would not represent her.

I am trying so very hard to be a good girl here, it's painful actually. I feel that JT is about as full of ***** as a Christmas goose. There, that's all I dare say right now without getting a really big Time Out!

The "in-thing" now-a-day is to start spinning as soon as you can.

I know some people have posted in other threads that they don't care about DB getting her hair done, but it infuriates me!!! (not their opinion, but the fact that she did it) I watched the Today Show segment and when it was over, I was still fuming about it.

It's totally cool for you to be irritated by that. To each their own. Something I would think about though, think about Mark Klaas or any other "model" parent. Unless they suddenly started looking like Jesus, or random hippie band members, then they were going to the barber more than once during their ordeal.

I can't think of any reason there should be a double standard for men and women. If innocent men can continue to function and tend to their appearances, then so can women IMO.

MOO, and like I said- it's totally cool if it bothers you. I think sometimes we just question women for things that men get away with no problem.

You would think LE would have taken the box of wine with them as evidence.

Evidence of what though? That they had legally purchased wine? I don't understand what everyone thinks they are to do with any leftover wine. It isn't proof of a crime, it isn't against the law, it's just leftover wine. What am I missing?

He represented Joran Van der Sloot though. Which leads me to think that either he is not quite as selective with his clients as he says or maybe he just isn't that good judge of a character. MOO.

OMG Donjeta, I busted out laughing so hard haha. Sorry I just had to say that! I'll go back to reading

Where is Baby Lisa?​

 

[Patty G]

They did not take any carpet with them.

:waitasec: Sure looks like they took a carpet!

 

[Abby Normal]

Wonder why their lawyer needs to lie each time, saying cadaver dogs probably just hit on diapers smell (they don't)- if they are not guilty of doing anything wrong wouldn't they want to pursue that finding, not try to deny it?

"No comment" would have made a whirlwind of condemnation. I mean, honestly, she's doing the job she as hired to do. What else can she do?

And, as I discovered in the HRD thread- there are two spots in my home where cadaver dogs would hit. Now that I know that they hit on blood, I'm (again) waiting for more information from LE to make any assumptions. Cadaver dog hit is a great reason to investigate more fully, but what we find when we investigate will give us more information with which to work than the hit alone.

Measure it to determine how drunk she would have been according to her size/weight?

Just throwing something out there.

I am ONLY going by what the attorney was stating regarding what LE may have done. I don't feel the wine is evidence, but based on the attorney saying LE did a comparison to see how much wine was left, my post ended coming from there.
