Ok, that makes much more sense! Thanks for clarifying it for me. That’s not how it was spelled out on the article. I know I missed one video interview with her so I’ll try to go back and watch.
She explained it better in the article/video I just posted above "Here's what we've learned..."

I might be in love with her.

She is one of us.. enjoys true crime.. but Brazilian true crime. After listening to a bunch of her interviews.... I won't be surprised if she pops up here some day lol Pretty sure I heard her say she will take more interest in American true crime stories now.

Well if she does come here, don't tell her I have a crush. shhhhhh.

This is only a joke.
I am kidding around .

Very good find! This looks like it's from Trial 1. I don't think it was brought up in Trial 2 actually (about the light being broken upon removal)?
You’re right. I just found the date on YouTube, and it says May 2024.

I honestly thought it was this May. It took me a while to find his testimony, and when i saw May in the list of search results i said to myself that’s it! I didn’t realize the first trial took place during the same months. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Wonder why they didn’t use this in trial 2?? It kind of blows the whole tail light issue out the water.

Another interview with Juror number 11. Interesting what he said about Dever.
Snipped from article in post I’m replying to:

Q: What witness did you trust the least?

A: Officer Kelly Dever—her behavior in court made me question whether it’s safe for someone who acts like that to be carrying a gun among civilians.

I busted out laughing. Such a good take 😆

I like juror #11.

So far these jurors were really thoughtful, which coincides with what reporters inside the courtroom witnessed.
And alessi & Yannetti reported the same in their interview with the Canadian atty. they said they’ve been before soooooo many juries and never have they seen a more attentive focused jury. Then yanetti laughed and said “AND poker faced!” He said you never knew what they were thinking.

Hats off to the jury for taking their job seriously.

So far that after verdict comment is my favorite.

So, so far post verdict, we’ve heard from Jackson, the mcalberts, Karen’s dad and brother, yanetti and alessi, and 2 jurors. Did i miss anyone? I’d love to hear from more jurors

I believe it's 3 jurors: the foreman, #11 (Paula), #4 (Jeff)

I finally got to see Chloe yesterday. “I bit him-I bit him-I bit him”
What do you mean you got to see Chloe yesterday? I have wondered what happened to her. Literally.

I do remember that part, but that specifically was about how Yanetti navigated the evidence rules and how they argued they shouldn’t be forced to call him, thus allowing Brennan to essentially make his closing via cross.

But when directly asked about why they made the decision to not call Proctor, one of them (sorry I can’t remember) said they can’t discuss that.
I hope it’s because they have some surprises for antidetective Proctor in the future!:)

I hope that other law tubers that speak to them will ask more about Bev. I know they touched on some things that included her strange decisions but they didn’t really go after her like AJ did. They DID go after Brennan but not right off the bat, but you could see the look on David’s face as Bob started talking and then when Bob got going it really came out. They were so disgusted by the hoodie drama.

Edit: I’m just starting to listen to Duty Ron and Ed Wallace and David is planning to go on their show as well.

Brian Albert:
“By the time I came downstairs, the police were already inside my house.”

Were they?
He said he was cold asleep , great word choice BA.

AJ will probably never try another case in Suffolk County. But DY is likely to return. No matter how much it's warranted, It's probably not wise to criticize a sitting judge when you may have to stand in front of them or one of their colleagues in the future.

Duty Ron and Ed Wallace said David and Bob will be on one of their upcoming shows! I am really interested in this because they’re retired detectives and Ed is a forensics guy.

Watching the Alessi and Yanetti interview.
The eight 2nd and 3rd year interns that Yanetti recruited from his Boston law school, and some from Harvard, were entirely committed to this case despite having a bar exam, doing legal research and some drafting, essentially functioning as associates in a law firm for them. They worked around the clock with them. They never had this help for Trial 1.

I wonder if David Yanetti and Bob Alessi already knew each other before this team was put together by Yanetti and Karen Read.

I think AJ is more free to comment on the judge not living and working in the Boston area. In the interview last night clearly Bev was off topic and nothing really said. I was also a bit amazed at the almost total lack of mention of AJ. I have always considered him the leader but I think Yanetti was really the leader. AJ's name seldom came up. I found it odd.

Maybe in general professional terms they knew of each other but I got the impression this major friendship happened during the trial.

I believe David said very briefly that he and Bob worked on a case once before, deep into the chat (maybe a half hour before the end?). I liked it so much that he said he and Bob hit it off so much Bob is one of his best friends now. And you can tell, they get along so well.

I didn't know before that Mr. Wolpe (sp?) their tech guy that put the pics, slides etc. up on the screen was also an intern.
