And those holes on John's clothes look like punchers to me....from canine teeth.

As for dna on his clothes....it is suspect. Pig? really? It was dog.
I've always wondered if the pig was from dog saliva, from eating dog food/treats that had pork in them. Just a thought.
 
I've not been able to find any truly convincing explanation for why AJ whiffed on the Proctor question. The way it played was miles better for Brennan than the version of the trial Lally got. Sure the texts came in, but as Bederow notes, Yannetti blundered by allowing Brennan to read them first. And you don't get to fishing expedition into Proctor's bias and alleged framing.


MOO
Don't understand why the defense did it that way, and it seems the defense let the DA off the hook with Proctor, but once again, the re-cross of Brennan doesn't land and makes it a little worse for him.

 
He is utterly intolerable! JMO
It’s kind of funny how many experts have told him on cross ‘I think that maybe you don’t understand what it is I do’
HB keeps asking the same questions over and over.
I think he’s trying to get a flustered answer from her. But she’s unflappable.

Right now he just opened the door for her to FURTHER explain her interpretation of the dog bites!

Why won’t the defense just call Proctor?
 
I just want to give Dr. Russell a big hug. She is so smart ,genuine, and likeable. I feel like HB is trying to make her cry. I can not stand him treating her with disrespect. It"s so uncalled for . I think the jurors will feel the same way I do about her . They probably tune out when Brennan is running his trap. He is despicable in my opinion.

This seems to be the general consensus every where. I have a feeling the jurors are not feeling HB this morning.
 
Why won’t the defense just call Proctor?
Because then Brennan will be able to cross examine him, rather than direct and he could ask leading questions to Proctor which would have otherwise been objected to by the defense if Brennan had called him.

We saw the effect of this somewhat yesterday when Dever was called. It would be a huge disadvantage to the defense if they have to call him themselves.

The defense’s tactics have been a disgrace. Russell doesnt address the jury when testifying, only makes interesting facial expressions toward ADA Brennan. The dog issue is a moot point. jmo
