Back in the courtroom.

 

[JulieR]

They are saying now that the victim statements ar going to be read at 3

Is VC going to be there anyone know? I hope she gets to hear from the parents.

 

[MCDRAW]

Does VC get to hear their statements now?

 

[Mama-cita]

The others were. I remember CHris's sister calling Cobbins out

 

[William N]

Apparently the impact statements are going to be heard for judicial approval.

 

[PrairieWind]

Does VC get to hear their statements now?

She CAN be there if she wants. But she doesnt HAVE to.

 

[MCDRAW]

Apparently the impact statements are going to be heard for judicial approval.

Which I think is stupid...they ought to be able to say whatever they want too!

 

[lizzybeth]

I guess everyone sees that VC is there.

 

[William N]

VC just came in and is in her usual good mood.

Unreal:

 

[MCDRAW]

I haven't seen her yet

 

[Mama-cita]

Unreal:

Let's hope the jury comes back and wipes the smile off of her face!

 

[PrairieWind]

Not sure what they are waiting for.

 

[yeknomaras]

Let's hope the jury comes back and wipes the smile off of her face!

I'm praying for it!!!!

 

[PrairieWind]

YOu would think a person charged with the torture murder of 2 people would show some respect to their families by not joking around like she does. Oh wait....... never mind.

 

[MCDRAW]

What could they possible me meeting about now?

 

[PrairieWind]

Must be terrible for the families to have had to go thru these statements so many times. What a relief it will be to them when these trials are finally behind them.

 

[Muffet]

For those who can't watch live, wbir has videos of the impact statements from a prior trial.
