MS - Jessica Chambers, Panola County, Dec 2014 #2

[scmom]

i wonder if judge would let him get up and apologize to the family?

You think that would make it better?

 

[d4j]

If I was the state I'd start out this last segment by pointing that 3x error out.

Ditto.

 

[Madeleine74]

If I'm the family I'm actually quite thrilled the defense attorney screwed up three times like this.

 

[Madeleine74]

The only thing better would be if the defense attorney referred to Tellis as "Eric Tellis."

 

[Bravo]

:laughing:

 

[William N]

This defense attorney just called her Erica Chambers three times now...just wow!

In the rebuttal I hope the prosecutor says "Her name is Jessica, not Erica."

 

[Madeleine74]

I'll be surprised if the state doesn't say something...

 

[d4j]

In the rebuttal I hope the prosecutor says "Her name is Jessica, not Erica."

Perfect.
And maybe, "His name is Quinton, not Eric."

 

[epiphany]

Perfect.
And maybe, "His name is Quinton, not Eric."

I like that, too

Can the defense attorney's mistake of calling Jessica Ericka be used for an appeal if jury returns a guilty verdict ?

 

[Bravo]

Oh my I am still stunned by this

Ineffective counsel I suppose.

No. Closing arguments are not considered evidence in a case. Plus, a slip of the tongue like that would not change the outcome of a verdict--the jury certainly knows the victim's name.

Wonder if the jurors caught it?

 

[Madeleine74]

Ineffective counsel I suppose.

Not even close.

 

[Yuletide]

Q was a drug dealer. Did he have a street name?

 

[cady]

Tellis could use that mistake as an appeal issue. Bad representation. Too bad. JMO

 

[SteveP]

Wonder if the jurors caught it?

How could they not, unless they were sleeping. We certainly all caught it.

 

[BUF]

Back on

 

[Bravo]

Oh wow he went there Good job!!!!!
