It's not just you Maisebelle. I've noticed the judge becomes exasperated quite easily and shows it. Unusual behavior for Judges. And, the prosecutor, well, I guess that is just his style.

Its the defense that aggravates me. This domestic abuse battered woman excuse is disgusting. Every woman claims battered woman defense after killing loved one these days. I have three sons and it scares me to death.

If I were a member of the jury, I'd have a difficult time reaching a verdict.

I would have a problem coming to a verdict. GUILTY, GUILTY, GUILTY

#McKernanTrial - Barr says: "This Air Force security officer," as much as possible during his closing to describe #ColleenMcKernan

#McKernanTrial - I'm never impressed when an attorney reads their opening/closing word for word from a piece of paper. #ColleenMcKernan
