Informant's attorney wants courtroom closed and it sounds like judge will allow that. #TravionSmithTrial

There will be no Tweets as it appears everyone except court personnel will have to leave court. #TravionSmithTrial

Judge says live stream can resume after witnesses testimony. #TravionSmithTrial http://abc11.tv/1giDDkx

 

[Chelly]

Rats! Not even an audio of jailhouse snitch's testimony. Disappointed.

 

[Chelly]

Live stream still has not resumed.

 

[Boodles]

I suspect we'll hear nothing more today. I think they're supposed to adjourn at 1:00.

Now it appears closed court testimony will take us thru today's early adjournment at 1 PM. #TravionSmithTrial

Popping in to ask something...

I have been watching bits of this trial when Van Callis in on break.
Is this the same courtroom Amanda and Grant Hayes trials were held?

:seeya: TIA!


ETA- Oh I see Born is here!! It has to be the same place, NC trial and all.
Hi Born, longtime no see :loveyou:

2nd ETA- Oh and Chell is tweeting this one too! Hi again Chell :loveyou:

I sure miss y'all :tantrum:

Hi, Nymeria - :seeya: - I just got in, huff-puff. I had a study class this morning then ran to Costco, so I missed it all this morning. So I'll try to catch up.

And yes, Nymeria, it is indeed the same courthouse -- it may be the same courtroom, too, IDK fer shure.

And another big THANKS to our amazing Twitter maven, Chelly!! :happydance: It means a lot to me, even if I'm here during the whole day, watching the trial -- I catch things that I have missed, and I like having it out there for reference later. You have done a great job for us!!

I can't find the stream archives for this case, so I have missed a bunch. Maybe they will put it out there soon.

Justice for Melissa and those who loved and depended on her. SMH.

Pay no attention to the "Trial to resume shortly" message on the blue screen. It won't be shortly... It'll be Monday morning.

I care, Chelly! Like Ny, I've been watching the VanCallis trial but trying to keep an eye on this one as well.

:loveyou: to all my friends here

Here I yam on Monday morning -- couldn't get "over here" till now, but where are my buds?

We're in recess, but it shouldn't take long for them to resume -- let's hope. Here's a link to the WRAL trial stream:
