I’ve have never seen a “expert witness” so laughably unqualified.


IMO

So you missed Burgess and Welcher???

 

[Soulmagent]

Then we are collectively screwed

maybe he has more integrity?
I DID NOT FOLLOW SEASON 1.

I am just so disappointed in judge Cannone. Over and over I think ‘my goodness, she must see what the right thing to do here is’. And over and over, she lets me down. MOO.

RSBM

It is clear what guides her.

Not pleasant to contemplate.

LOL uh you should watch his testimony

 

[kuromiiiilove]

These are the same questions he asked Dr Scordi Bello. Didn’t work then, why would it work now?

Dr Russell says there’s rational reasons for Johns DNA and hair to be on the car.

LOL uh you should watch his testimony

I hope he reads those words before he do it again.
i definitely will though.

 

[DustysMom]

Badgering ! Give it up Brennan!

 

[Linda7NJ]

Do you have a link supporting that?

It’s my opinion.
Police departments don’t hire doctorate level accident reconstructionists
IMO

Dr Russell says the dog DNA could have degraded because of how long it took to swab the hoodie.

ETA: she said best practice would have been to immediately swab the hoodie.

 

[sunshineray]

How would you explain what she offered up to the FBI then, even with her lawyer present? Was she working the dispatch the very next day or on some other day and mixed up the day? How many days was the SUV parked there? Did she see them in the sallyport before 15:45 that day but with a different SUV there? She saw them, in the sallyport, together, for a very long time, which stood out to her as being weird. It was a clear memory for her. The date/time might be in question, however, she related it to the Karen Read SUV and the day that JOK died. There was nothing vague about her statement to the FBI. It makes no other sense IMO if it wasn't a true statement by her.
MOO

An honest mistake which she reported when she realized she'd left at 3:45 and the vehicle arrived there hours later. Why wasn't she called at the first trial? MO, she wasn't needed to insinuate shade at B and H because Proctor was on the hot seat and Devers had corrected her interview. No Proctor this time, lets move on to B and H and Dever up there too. All just to cast aspersions around with no actually proof...but it backfired big time on the defense. Hopefully the jurors saw what's really going on. All just my opinion, of course.

 

[Alcina]

All he, Brennan, is accomplishing is to let her explain her opinion even more so. I don't think this is going the way he thinks it is.

Wow. She’s got guts.
DNA can be recovered from thousands of year old fossils

Inappropriate to have 'honest' and 'Dever' in same paragraph.

Carry on.

Oh. Got it…

IMO

It can last in fossils under ideal conditions. It can also degrade in just weeks with elevated temperature, moisture, UV light, oxidative stress, microbial activity, pH and chemical exposure, autolysis, and lack of preservation measure.

We can find DNA in SOME fossils - not all - because it was preserved - kept cool, dry and away from light. If a biological sample is stored improperly, DNA can quickly degrade.

Dr Russell is 100% correct.

JMO, but a hoodie and a fossil are very different things.

<modsnip - quoted post was removed (rude)

But I've listened to almost all of this trial. Alessi is almost always overruled while Brennan gets a "sustained".<modsnip - namecalling>
