State v Bradley Cooper 04-20-2011

[gracielee]

I have a file with profile pictures, some I used some I did not. I posted them on profile for a second or two and changed my mind. Don't think anyone saw them nor were they my actual PROFILE picture for anything more than a second.

Who cares if he is a Frank Zappa fan, if people at my work knew that I spent most of my time on WS and reading about murder, death and mayhem they would look at you like you were crazy.

LOL, most of my 'good friends' already know I'm a crime buff. Some are too, but most just think 'why in the world do you want to subject yourself to such gruesome *stuff*?' Just sweep it all under the rug, as we do, and think of only happy things. :crazy:

I believe what it showed that JWard had an agenda..to help Brad..and it appears someone from Cisco contacted him about Brad..so He followed up with Defense team..

JWard is an admitted conspiracy therorist..

JWard is an admitted person who is committed to Help the accused..due to his family history of Def. Attny father /father-in-law/or step father who embedded the necessity to use whatever tools you possessed to help accused persons...He admits to having an agenda of disproving evidence

I have to agree, Boz has exposed his credibility factor...It will depend on the jury at this point..

Then why didn't the prosecution attack the credibility of what he testified about?

I just took a moment to check my privacy settings on FB and everything was ok, just as I had set them the last time.

I don't think he gave any actual testimony of great importance. JMO. I can't think of anything he testified to that caused me to go WOW.

He walked the jury to the brink of file tampering/modification and how easily it could have been accomplished. The jury is aware that the judge/pros would not let him divulge everything he found - don't think that a juror does not realize this and will not take this into account.

JW's testimony was in fact damaging to the pros case in that they thought the integrity of their only "smoking gun" evidence was unimpeachable...well, it is regardless of whether or not the jury heard that directly- they know it.

I think they showed he wasn't much of a professional, much less an expert.

He would have been better off not asking any questions. It would have come across that the guy had nothing to offer. I bet this is the first time facebook privacy settings have been used in an attempt to discredit a witness.

Because it it so freakin easy to do, yet this "expert" didn't, because he said he couldn't keep up with fb privacy settings!

I thought he said he was in high school in 1997? And what was he doing between '91 & '97?

I don't see the big deal with facebook. Heck I can get up on a table and sing and dance and do a commercial for myself anytime and the only security concern is being sober enough to not fall off the darn table. :floorlaugh:

My guess is that the convo went like this: "Son, get in there and do a couple pro bono cases and be qualified as an expert. Once you get that under your belt, you'll be raking in the dough as an expert witness for defenses cases across the country. You hear me, now, boy. You go on and do it now. Listen to your dad. It's a goldmine."

Would that be your guess if he was a pros witness?

Well, I now declare you an expert witness, as you are better than Mr. Ward. :floorlaugh: Jeeze, how could he not know how to do that????

 

[jrb0124]

And what was he doing between '91 & '97?

Who cares? what does that have to do with his testimony?

 

[NCEast]

I don't think he gave any actual testimony of great importance. JMO. I can't think of anything he testified to that caused me to go WOW.

If he did testify to anything important I don't think the jury heard it. It's such a difficult trial to follow with all of the technical aspects. I am still feeling sorry for them and hope they will at least try to connect the dots one way or another when they deliberate.

 

[gritguy]

Interesting testimony I missed.

I think we can all agree, though, if the pros had been able to establish the witness still had a Myspace page, the jury should have been instructed to disregard him completely.

 

[snowshuze]

I would be wondering what kind of wool the expert and the defense is trying to pull over my head that the Prosecutor has to keep objecting to it because he is not a qualified computer forensic guy and why I was sent away for three hours or so while the court went on some kind of expedition prior to the expert's testimony.

Then why didn't the prosecution attack the credibility of what he testified about?

They did, every time he made an objection as to his forensic expertise. THAT was their issue with this witness, IMO.

ETA: I didn't multiquote...don't know how that happened.

Once Kurtz could not use Ward as an 'expert' I question his use at all after watching his testimony.

 

[jrb0124]

Wow, thats some spin. If they wanted to show he wasn't much of a professional, why didn't they ask him ONE question about network security?

 

[less0305]

Pros. witnesses usually aren't paid and looking to boost their business on TV in the U.S. & Canada. Nope, sonny boy, here - who has an intolerance for mental deficiencies and likes to get in the down and dirty with conspiracy theories - was looking to build an expert name for himself and rake in some serious cash in the future.

Off to check mine. :crazy:

It's easy to do...but he also said he didn't get on facebook much. And his expertise isn't in facebook privacy settings. Now if the facebook company needed help on securing their network, I'm sure he could have done that with ease.

When I got a brief glimpse of the pictures early this morning that's what I saw as well.

Maybe they were pictures of him at the beach, we don't know.
