Bottom line on TBI's Millsaps techie testimony - lots DNA of Davidson, Cobbins; nada on Thomas

This DNA testimony not wasted - state needs to show Thomas homies involved in rapes

 

[SuziQ]

Millsaps pointing out where stains were on striped shirt.

 

[SuziQ]

Defense cross. Stressing that GT's dna not found on any of these items.

 

[SuziQ]

The state rests.

 

[SuziQ]

Defense has weekend to decide if they want to put a case on. Breaking for today, pick back up on Monday. Monday argue and charge then delibeberate.

Court conducting business outside the presence of the jury.

 

[SuziQ]

Doesn't sound like the defense will put proof on.

 

[SuziQ]

Take short break then discuss another matter.

Dillard had just 1 ? for Millsaps - any Thomas DNA? Nope, she says. Nuff said. State rests

Looks like no defense witnesses to be called. Judge sending jury back to hotel. Says closings Mon morning

Jury's done but we're not. Defense will argue for directed verdict, saying state hasn zip proof 2 go 2 jury

Dillard to file written motion, argue it Monday. This is called rule 29. Rarely granted

Uh see I missed that part, when I signed on he was pretty much finished and what little I could hear I couldn't make out what was being said. I would like to have seen and heard him talking it would make it easier to figure him out.

I wasn't directing the post at anyone in particular nomsayn... how are you Julie?

[SuziQ]

Good morning you two. :blush:

Suzi, you deserve a medal. :gold_crown:

Good morning! Everyone deserves a medal for pitching in and keeping this case updated. Thank you everyone!

Judge is back.

 

[SuziQ]

Judge is not going to change the wording of criminal responsibility per defense request. He says it's appropriate the way it is.

 

[SuziQ]

TK asking that the charges mention accesory after the fact also makes one criminally responsible.
