State vs Jason Lynn Young 6-23-11

I hope so. That should be addressed if possible.

I like the end of this guy's talk. The def said the pros doesn't represent the people, but the government.

This pros said, they represented the victims, Michelle, Rylan, C, etc.

Yes I liked the way he brought the victims back in his last statement asking for justice for them.

David S. ROCKED (no pun intended) his closing!

^five to DS!! That was poetic and awesome. :woohoo:

It means one of two things ... either the dog was never allowed to go upstairs, or the dog went upstairs and someone cleaned his feet too.

The dog slept on a dogbed on the floor beside JY -- I think the dog was in the pen while this was going on - JY put him there, IMO. MY told the 911 op that the dog was "going crazy" when she got there -- outside, IIRC.

Pros has 54 minutes left.

I agree that DS's close was excellent. I hadn't understood all the focus of the testimony about JY's DNA/hand print on the molding. I remember thinking at the time "Isn't his DNA all over the house? Big deal!" Then, today during close I really got a good look at the blood on that door/carpet and had DS doing the mime of bending over there, putting out his hand to steady himself, beating poor MY.

1693 days for def to come up with the story he told yesterday.

Brilliant.

She is stammering quite a bit right now. DS seemed much more comfortable.

Do you mean Meredith Fisher?

Too bad he didn't do the cross. I'm not at all impressed with BH. Unless she comes up with something really great in her portion of the closing, they should have ended with David S., IMO

Well she sounds like a college freshman taking a speech class and doing her first public speech in front of a group. Still with the umms and starting/stopping while trying to read. This is painful to watch. It's like she is unsure of what she is saying. I'm extremely disappointed with what I'm seeing right now.

I agree...she's reading too much from notes.

 

[cody100]

I hate to talk badly about BH, but her close is not very good. I do not understand. She started out so confidently.

 

[traveler]

She's wasting time on the timeline that is already well known....what about debunking the defense? Explaining the gas mileage?

 

[jilly]

She is stammering quite a bit right now. DS seemed much more comfortable.

There was something blocking her view from the jurors and it appears she was asked to move which threw her off a bit.

 

[cody100]

We have already heard all of this. Why is she just going over this again?

 

[Zamboni]

I think BH's confidence got a bit rattled yesterday, but she seems to be getting back into her groove as she goes today. He is soooo guilty, with plenty of evidence to that effect, that I don't think her level of polish will matter here.

Nice pause to let them stare at that shirt he was wearing at the Cracker Barrel.

Never mind - I thought that was THE shirt.

 

[Zamboni]

All this talk about Cracker Barrel is making me hungry! Late court lunches are torture!
