The reporters are talking amongst themselves and this is what they are saying? Do I have that right? Not quite sure who "they" is.

 

[Seriously?]

11 aive is LIVE, but reporter doesn't know it!!!

Link?

They're off now. Actually, it turned out to be the reporter and crew only - the clips of attorneys, etc weren't played. So I haven't seen the Kilgore clip yet, either!

And yes - the reporters were talking amongst themselves about the case and other things.

I'm still looking into this, but here's a more recent case that seems to overrule the 2003 case. It might depend on how the judge sentences them and whether or not she corrects the conflict at that time:

State v. Springer, Ga: Supreme Court 2015

So ....

Thanks for finding that.

I was a little surprised she wasn't more somber when speaking with the jury after the verdict. They just sat through that horror story and saw pictures of a dead little boy. And truth be told, the defense lawyers had just learned they lost, and they did work hard for RH. It was a serious occasion, right? But I didn't hear one word about Cooper. Maybe I missed it. I didn't like the jovial nature of her speech - it seemed incongruous. And again - not anything about why they were there in the first damn place. She didn't need to give his eulogy, but come on........mention his name! These folks just said the baby was murdered!

I think she was typical. They don;t often say much at a time like this. They just say thank you and give instructions.

Snipped in consideration of space.

I know - I thought her demeanor was a bit too jovial. Laughing just didn't seem appropriate.

 

[gitana1]

Sorry - I wasn't clear. I was talking about "We know this has been a difficult case for you because of this young victim, Cooper" or "you've had to look at photos you never wanted to see " or " the court appreciates your dedication to this case on behalf of little Cooper ".........anything to acknowledge how difficult and emotional child death cases are.

Sometimes they talk to the jury in chambers. I really can;t remember seeing a verdict when the judge made comments like that.

Seriously, Leanna took a huge risk in testifying in this trial - she could have asserted her 5th amendment right outside the presence of the jury and never taken the stand.

Based on how the police and prosecution went about arresting and prosecuting Ross, she should expect them to retaliate against her for not cooperating with the State to convict Ross. Stoddard obviously still thinks she is guilty or would like to see her prosecuted. Wonder if she is next? Well, they won't be able to admit all of Ross' deviant behavior in a trial against Leanna.

She did take a huge risk. I don't think she will be charged ever.

 

[gitana1]

Boring kind of looks like a thinner, sleeker version of Ross frankly.

 

[RainCheck]

Yes! Yes! Yes! I am so happy about the verdict. After been completely heartbroken by the verdict and sentence of Justin K. Corbett for the murder of Evan Dudley, I'm so glad to see a jury get it right for Cooper Harris. Children matter!

Oh,I didn't hear that. I agree. This is far too serious case for laughter.

I have thought that since the first time I saw Boring

I'm not sure why Leanne is still considered a suspect by Stoddard. They never found any evidence of a conspiracy to kill Cooper. JMO

I've been out all day and had a feeling the verdict would be today. I'm glad the jury found him guilty, Cooper didn't deserve what his father did to him.

What charge/s could be brought against Leanna? She wasn't there when Ross left Cooper in the car. It was my understanding that Leanna was thoroughly investigated for nearly two years that resulted in no charges being brought against her.

Some posts have been removed.

The topic if this thread is the Jury Deliberations and now the Verdict in this trial.

The topic is not and will not be your opinions about others or THEIR opinions.

This case was very unusual in that people were much more split in their thoughts. This does not mean we rip each other up or look down or noses at one another for thinking the jury got this right or wrong.

Return to discussing the case and not one another.

Where can I hear this?

Leanna was definitely listed as a suspect - that's why we were allowed to discuss her here. I believe stoddard said she wasn't part of an active investigation most recently. Not sure on the wording. I'll look.

Edit- found this in an article. Would still like to read the transcript myself again. But this is what I was remembering from stoddards testimony:

Though Leanna is still listed as a suspect on police reports, 'she is not part of an active investigation.' he said.

Link for that passage I typed above- still want to read the transcript to get it all in context and remember what he said:

It just occurred to me that maybe she was so "pro Ross" so he would get off and thus get her off the hook as well, ala if he's NG then she couldn't possibly be, either. I just don't know what to think of her.
