I'm totally confused. It's REALLY hard to follow all this by reading, which is NOT to say that I'm unappreciative of all the tweeters and tweet "copy and pasters", here. Quite the opposite. YOU GUYS ROCK!!!
I just miss being able to see and hear for myself what's going on. I wish they agreed to televise it but not in real-time. Play it back at the end of each day. What's wrong with that?
I have to admit that I'm also pulling a "possible Masipa" but in reverse. I totally believe that SD is as guilty as sin and I'm working backward to figure out how it all happened. Masipa, I think, always thought OP was innocent and worked backward through everything to find things that would support that.
Also in OP's trial, the state's first witness was cross examined by Roux, he pressed her on why statements she was then making were not in her formal statement to police. She said that she had told the policeman all of it when he first talked with her but she was not asked about it specifically, again. her assumption was that the cop HAD included it in his report. How that relates to this case, I can't recall, I'm, having a brain freeze.
Furthermore, I ask myself in this situation how I could remember ANYTHING 4 years later. Would ZT be in better shape here, if he qualified everything by saying that? Even if they said, well, you signed this statement... Couldn't he in all truth simply say, I don't remember anything except that I said something and later signed something. That's what I'd have to say because that would be the truth.
He seems to get caught up in minute details, which I think is what VZ is trying to do. I don't see ZT tiny missed details as being very significant.
I'm bad at analogies but from science class I remember this weird thing. Some could have the most beautiful, clean, refreshed eyes that you've ever seen but then, when you look through an electron microscope you see that ALL our eyes are disgustingly infested, ALL THE TIME. It's not a problem until it becomes a problem.
(Unless you're really brave don't google images of these things. Most of the photos show people with problems with them)
What Bugs Live on Your Eyelashes?
Written by Paul Jeter
Some microscopic bugs live harmlessly in our eyelashes.
There are a few types of insects that live harmlessly in our eyelashes. They are too small to see with the naked eye. These bugs are parasites that are closely related to spiders and other arachnids. They are referred to as eyelash mites. They live in and around the hair follicle, which is the root of each stand of hair. They eat dead skin cells and find their home in sweat, where a lot of bacteria like to thrive. There's nothing you can do about them, and they have been there all your life.

My point here is that ZT could get 100 tiny details wrong and still be telling the truth. In my opinion, he is. I also fear the SD will get off. He's got high paid lawyers that are after a "win" not justice and, while I appreciate the judge being a bit more interactive than Masipa, only by reading what she says, I don't like her very much.
Like Masipa, but differently, I think she's naive - has perhaps led too sheltered and white-bread a life. Both are definitely from the wrong generation.
(ALL conjecture and opinion on my part).
