Mistrial, Hung Jury - Raven Abaroa Murder in the 1st

[NCEast]

Good morning everybody. I hope this will be a good day for Janet's family...and us!

On the 911 Call (NC Wanted) at around the 3:55 mark, the operator asks Raven "what time did she go" and he responded "around 8". To me this is huge and from what I can find, it is never mentioned !!!

Is it odd that he can't remember his own bishop's name?

He also said 'I put my hand on her chest and it's not bleeding, it's not (unintelligable)", she had to have been killed before he went to play soccer.

And Charlene was right, you never hear the baby except for that short squall, probably when he's shaking him and leaving that blood print on the onesie.

I just listened to the call again and it grates on my nerves, badly. I wish we could have actually seen him during his academy award performance.

When I listen to the 911 call, it sounds like when ravYn finally goes to get the baby he is walking upstairs (he is out of breath when he's talking). You then hear the baby cry as he's walking into the room. He then goes back downstairs and is shuffling through papers while he is trying to recall Mikes name.

I don't think ravYn was anywhere near the body when he dialed 911!

Also, who asks for someone during a 911 call and can't remember his name? Why would you ask for a person you hardly knew? ravYn sounds mad that he can't remember.

I'm glad Charlene concentrated on the 911 call. There is so much there that points to guilt!

Goodmorning peeps. Fingers crossed for today. AT least the jury is asking questions, deliberating. Hopefully that is a good sign.

Tamara Gibbs just Tweeted that the jurors have 15 pages of instructions to sort through in addition to the actual deliberating. That's a huge responsibility.

Glad the jury asked for the 911 call after DA closing. I think they will listen with a different perspective now. The 911 call is a peek into Raven's narcissistic personality and a performance by him....he spends more time asking for help for himself than his wife!!! Hysterical babble when he is asked about Janet yet calms down to be clear so as to get information out when it concerns help for himself. Who thinks for help for their self when just finding a love one dead??? I can't do this myself translates to I need an audience. Scary guy!

From TG Tweet just a moment ago: Flowers popping up in the courtroom in the seventh hour of deliberations. Janet Abaroa's mother says fresh cut roses are cheerful, calming.

G'morning friends :coffeews:

It is huge. We can all sit at our computers and make up our minds one way or another after surgically dissecting this case for 8 years and they've only been on it for a few days. I have never been allowed on a jury, but I can imagine how heavy something like this must weigh on one's soul.

(Admitting to being an active member of WS AND running my own trial message board for a short time doesn't sit well with the court while being considered for a jury. Who'd a thunk it?)

BTW... GOOD MORNING! Who else is having Toll House cookies and cigarettes for breakfast?

Damn girl. I have coffee, no ciggies during office hours, boo. I tell you, in the NW it's better seen to be a pothead than a smoker :facepalm:

It is the same here in TropiCalifornia. I ran out of pot before the closing arguments. LOL! Just kidding......... I'm not out. JUST KIDDING!!!!

ETA.... I had to promise the kids I'd quit smoking after the trial. Cigarettes.... I'm talking about cigarettes!!!

 

[JusticeJunkie]

Mornin all. Is the jury in yet? I forgot what time they start. I was thinking maybe they had a good idea of their decision, and just needed to sleep on it.
Justice. I pray for justice for Janet.

Good Morning, L L & S -- I don't have the cookies, but I've got the cigs and my coffee. I am gonna put some cream cheese icing on some cinnamon rolls I made and have one of those. Maybe two...

Love you all -- let's send positive energy to the jury, to the family and all the many friends & supporters of Janet! Strength and common sense is what the jury needs...

Let's hope that this day is a good day!

Damn, yum yum breakfast sister borndem. My brother just posted a picture of his taco breakfast (he lives in Mexico city) and a little tear dropped from my eye. I miss my foodzzzz!!! lease:

Let's have a good day and Justice for Janet, today!

I have only been a part of various trials because I was in LE for a number of years. The two times I was called for jury duty since then I was excused due to having ulcerative colitis and both times I was in a flare. Anybody familiar with that disease knows you can't leave the house in a flare, much less be somewhere important such as jury duty. I really, really want to sit on a jury, a high profile case, before I die. I would never try to get out of serving like so many other do. I look at it as a privilege.
So perhaps I should not mention that I hang out on WS if I'm ever called again, that's interesting. I live in such a backward area most people probably don't have computers, much less know what WS is.

From the courtroom. Nice!!!
