GUILTY NC - Laura Ackerson, 27, Kinston, 13 July 2011 #6

[Nymeria]

how many times is the defendant going to say "poop"???

ETA- Sorry all, I am getting loopy with frustration.
I NEED to see her called out about these inconsistencies , please let re-cross be worthy.

 

[NCEast]

Gaskins is losing control now and thankfully BH is objecting and Judge S. is sustaining her objections.

 

[geevee]

Yesterday she had no idea what Grant was doing on the boat, today she knows what he was doing but wanted nothing to do with it, which was why she was piloting the boat. Geez, her attny is better getting the truth out of her than BH was.

I've heard more about those two boys bodily functions than I ever wanted to know. I thinking the peeing in the parking lot is to cover a lie.

To get rid of Laura's purse and clothing in a dumpster?

Amanda Lamb (WRAL) ‏@alamb 2m

On cross examination #AmandaHayes denies jailhouse snitches were telling the truth. They say she told them Laura was stabbed. @WRAL

I wish Becky would have asked AH how enamored she was with the prospect of moving to Kinston.

And also somehow she should point out how much time Amanda would have had to have been "driving around" without a phone. I don't mean o be a Monday morning quarterback. I know it's easy for me to sit back and criticize.

Don't apologize, Boodles!! Don't hold back -- let it fly! (within TOS, that is!)

 

[NCEast]

BH never did get back to those two or three weird letters that were read yesterday. Did we ever grasp an understanding of those and why they were introduced?

 

[CrazytownUSA]

If she says EXPECIALLY one more time I'm going to scream :banghead:

I really wish Boz would have done the cross... I'm afraid to say it, but she left a LOT of doubt on the stand. All it takes is one juror that is buying this load of crud...I'm really disappointed

But boy does she remember details of the most mundane things, but NOTHING about MAJOR things... :banghead:

Sigh. It seems like only Juan Martinez can do a good cross.

 

[otto]

Such odd speech habits: "It's been a long time ago"

 

[aa9511]

I have seen about 2 or 3 cases now where the prosecution doesn't do a good job on cross with the defendant.

 

[TigerBalm]

Please get this lady off the stand before I lose my mind... kthanxbye :scared:

 

[aa9511]

Look at how she's blinking those eyes!!

 

[TigerBalm]

The only way I can see why Becky got to cross the defendant is because she has seniority over Boz, who is a much better attorney then herself. :banghead:

 

[CUCKOOHEAD]

Why is the State objecting at all? Let the defense ask and the defendant answer with longer and more involved, detailed and convolted explanations so the State can have most of their job done when they can cross because the State did not ask and probe and get the defendant on the run.

Come'on Ms State Atty. Get your act together.

 

[aa9511]

Of course the maintenance people wouldn't come......

 

[NCEast]

Oh my gosh, that's her largest whopper of all. RE: what Grant was doing on the boat.

 

[otto]

Becky should not let her interrupt, because it cuts off half off the point that Becky is making!

 

[NCEast]

I'm still not satisfied with the State's handling of AH.

 

[TigerBalm]

Can you imagine the fear that Laura was under while she was being murdered??

That is what Juan would have said!
