I don’t but I could see where someone might.

I don’t think she answered their question about #2-5. She should’ve said something like “if you find her guilty of one of these charges, she’s only guilty of the offense you checked” but, ya know, slightly more legal-ish.

Legal-ish…perfect. I just don’t trust this crooked judge. There are fail safes tho, right?!

Judge just said "we'll see everybody at about 1:30" and the lawyers all left.

 

[LittleSeaTree]

Yes, it seems in clearing things up, she made them a little more murky.

I’d like to think the jury will be right back but someone will probably want lunch.

And Bev only wants to serve them bologna sandwiches.

Agree, not really much clearer.

After the sidebar she said 'see everybody back at 1:30', so it seems it's lunchtime.

Melanie Little thinks they will return very fast with verdict now that is is clear. But now they want lunch back at 130

 

[turaj]

clearly looking at JOK family they know she will not be convicted of John's murder. All of this and the real people responsible are walking free.

I thought she made it as clear as mud. Maybe they will just acquit on all charges. Also, lunch break!

 

[Derph]

After reading the instructions the judge asked the jury if that made it any clearer. Seems they were confused IMO

It seemed like she didn't even understand them herself which is just par for the course. She could not be any more obtuse and difficult in my opinion.

 

[LvsAMystry]

Imo they are considering guilty of OUI but the confusing charge 2 on the slip needed clarification so good on them for asking. It also appears they’re considering fact there is no evidence of her intoxication level at midnight whereas they have BAC in morning. I’m sensing a win for Read.

 

[turaj]

Clock stopped...probably eating a quick lunch and verdict at 1:30pm. I think those instructions will get them where they needed to go.

Made it even more confusing. imo

Trying not to read into anything here, but I'm really curious what some of the Gs think after all this. Kind of quiet this morning on that side. Not judging! Genuinely curious of their thoughts.

 

[ChasingKaty]

So I heard someone say that they reckon that either, the jury has asked the question because they're going down the slip and have decided everything but got confused by the OUI so that's where they are at in their deliberations. But I wonder if they've skipped, decided the rest and have left querying this charge to the end so that they just have one to decide when they go back into the room.

Thoughts?

The guy charged with WI for being an advocate of KR. Got it.

 

[Wishbone]

Law and Crime feed is showing a very calm quiet controlled crowd outside the courthouse waiting for a verdict. Expect the noise level to increase if the verdict is not guilty!

 

[ChasingKaty]

Yeah Turtleboy very much a KR advocate, not a commentator. Take with massive pinch of salt!!

 

[mzmarymac]

Anyone else hearing there is another question coming after lunch at 1:30?

 

[mzmarymac]

Except he's been pretty much correct since the getgo. And without him, quite honestly, none of us would be here talking about this case.
