[Rhyme & Reason]

wow thanks for link. This case went to trail fast.

They got the jury seated this morning & prosecution has already finished their opening statements!

defense opening statement summarized: JB's story is the only story that logically fits the evidence and circumstances. Pros has not offered a motive or evidence for JB to shoot his "secret lover" (AH), pros has no evidence to prove 1st or 2nd degree on TH.

first witness up (for the state) : James Henslee (AH husband)

JH chewing gum continuously...even while talking sometimes, kind of annoying and distracting IMO.

defense keeps harping on the 10:00 and 2:30 daily calls between JH and AH - wonder where they're going with that aside from possibly coloring JH as controlling.

Maybe hinting that JH was suspicious of AH's activities, that he had reason to be suspicious? Chip away at AH's character?

Yes, pretty sure that's part of it - you're right. I really wonder though how the defense is planning on spinning this to the advantage of JB. Would suggest JB to be less impulsive and sloppy, and more deliberate and calculating IMO - at least in regard to an affair.
