Judge said if the jury insists on the transcripts, she'll do it. "But we couldn't get them to you until next Thursday."

"But if you say, 'judge, I don’t care,’ then I have to do it. I want you to use your collective memory.”

Two of the words the jury wanted defined: Vitriolic and exculpatory. Media expressed surprise no jurors knew definition of "vitriolic"

For those who don't know:
vit·ri·ol·ic
vitrēˈälik/
adjective
filled with bitter criticism or malice.

Exculpatory evidence is evidence favorable to the defendant in a criminal trial that exonerates or tends to exonerate the defendant of guilt

wonder if we will get a live stream for the verdict?

In another case that's before the court, Evans asked the defendant: "Do you know the difference between jail time and probation?"

Wise A$$....LOL

McQueen said Bob started a "vitriolic conversation" with Jane. The judge told him not to use such big words, and he replaced it w 'acerbic'

Don't know if this means anything, but Bob's attorney, McCarthy, and Asst Prosecutors Lindsey and Moran just filed back into the courtroom

#bobbashara is back in the courtroom, too. Judge is going over the two words Vitriolic and Exculpatory. Jury will be given the definitions

Judge told jury: "“Vitriolic is harsh and angry words."

Exculpatory "To prove that someone is not guilty of doing something wrong.”

Judge then gave the jury a 15 minute break, and will break for lunch at 12:30

The judge also gave the jurors the definition of "obfuscate," although I didn't hear that. Gotta give credit to my Freep counterpart on that

Hope this "words of the day" deal is over and done with. Hate to think every time those 12 jurors can't jointly come up with definitions, they'll be ringing the judges bell.

On another case, a woman just said: "Your Honor, I married the wrong person." Judge set aside her conviction. Not sure what this is about.

LOL! Wayne County CourtHouse...funny place.

Here again. None of the 12 jurors knew what exculpatory or vitriolic meant? Good luck :rolleyes:
 
  • #878
Thanks sister Chelly and others for the updates. I was so frustrated to not be able to follow this trial. And wth with jurors not knowing those two words.... REALLY?!?!?!?
 
  • #879
Hopefully it doesn't mean that they collectively just can't agree on anything.

Tick Tock .... Tick Tock ..... lol )))
