Trial - Ross Harris #3

[JudyBolton]

I don't think anyone is trying to 'make this about Stoddard' by evaluating the evidence he is presenting and measuring the validity and relevancy of it. I think it would be an injustice to Cooper to not do that.

I was referring to several comments that seem to imply that Stoddard and the judge should not want/allow the jury to view things. I cannot imagine ANY circumstance where watching a video about hot car death 5 days before your child is dead in a hot car is invalid or irrelevant.

Please note I started my comment with "Funny how we see things differently isn't it?" and my signature notes (posting only my opinion)

The hard right was made on the way from Ross's office to the movie theater, not on the way from CFA to Ross's office. I am still skeptical of that hard right. Ross had no reason to make a hard right there. Just another strange thing to me.




I agree. The State's OS was the same way - lots of data points and random musings but no coherent story. The prosecution has done a terrible job with this case.

I thought that he noticed Cooper when changing lanes, not making a turn?

I'm not sure they are doing a terrible job I just think it could be done more efficiently. But, I guess it's easy for me to say from my home - Armchair quarterbacking LOL!

He's saying RH deleted the Whisper and Kik apps from his phone?

IIRC the apps were on the phone, they just didn't show up on the first extraction, they had to wait for the Cellebrite update.

Many mountains out of a few molehills....

I don't think that's what he was implying, but could well be wrong.

Is there a link to any information about the selected jurors?

 

[Hope4More]

Clearly this was their biggest fear because both LH and RH must have thought he was that oblivious in life to do this or something like it. I think these emails help the defense.

Has it occurred to anyone that Leanna was overly fearful about anything related to Cooper? And it didn't have anything to do with RH?

Stoddard then talks about an email from Leanna Harris on Jan. 30, 2013, with a subject line "Don't be this dad." It contained a link to a local TV station's story about a father who leaves a child in his car for eight hours on a cold day. A second email is a forward of a message headed "Look again" from a state agency.

A third email sent on May 13, 2014, a little more than a month before Cooper's death, said "a 2-year-old in Clarkston, Ga., died after being left in her mother's car," Stoddard says.

I'm kid of starting to think Leanna acted the way she did in that video, because she wasn't surprised...almost expected it....

I really wonder if he had left him in the car before, or almost had. That is a very specific thing to be so diligently worried about.

JMO.

Ya see, I view those molehills as stepping stones.

Maybe not by themselves, but as a ladder to the truth - good or bad.

Just another anecdote:

I have two sons who are exactly two years apart. When they were little - especially ages 0-4, I was literally in a constant state of hyper alert because I was so worried that I would forget one of them or lose them in a store or forget to feed them on time or get the right immunizations, etc.

I could very easily imagine making the kind of mistake or having a lapse that ends in a terrible tragedy for a young child. Knowing that can happen, and knowing that I get distracted easily -- I pretty much drove myself nuts being so hyper-vigilant so that my kids wouldn't befall such a tragedy due to an "innocent" lapse.

It's the people who think it couldn't happen - there's no way you could forget your kid ...those are the people who likely don't take extra precautions to guard against it. From reading here and around the web, it seems like that's most people.

I can. These viral videos go around every summer. I've watched them and I don't have kids. I don't necessarily see it as solid evidence of anything.

Btw, WebSleuths signatures aren't shown on Tapatalk and I certainly never implied you aren't entitled to your opinion.

I don't think it was a hard right. It was a lane change to the far right lane while there was a fair amount of traffic.

Besides, when you're actually turning right, you look hard left

I think that you are right. However, when Ross turned left onto Akers Mills, the road that Ross was on when he made the "hard right," he had a turn arrow. If JRH needed to be in the far right hand land lane, I am very surprised that he did not do that when he first turned onto Akers Mill. Between the fact that Ross needed to make a hard right and Ross's chosen way to get to the theater, I am left scratching my head. It's not inconceivable to me that he made those choices, but the two, especially when taken in tandem, are definitely near the bottom of the logical choices list.

BBM - This comment reminds me of a point made by the state, which annoyed me. When the state talked about Ross making the U-turn after CFA, they said that he would have had to look to his right to see oncoming traffic. However, Ross would have been looking straight ahead. In order to make that U-turn, one must wait fully in the turn lane (i.e. not in the intersection) before beginning to turn.

This will alienate a jury. I think some are already close. State needs to back away as much as they can from Staddard. It's not his fault because he isn't asking the questions but it looks like a fishing expedition at some points.

Yes, but I didn't see a hard right, I'll have to go back and look again

I "think" thats what RB Smith testified to with Rodriguez. LOL Ole Stoddard has been in court on certain days and that where he saying stuff now to reflect others testimony. Tomorrow should be a good day Kilgore. Lawd I about to go to sleep lol


BS lil Kilgore called Escamillo out on his report having wrong number. Stoddard just testified that he figured it out!

OMG FINALLY Stutained an objection of leading!

No! Please elaborate ...

Boring is just doing scatter shot, non sequitur hit and runs at this point, and truthfully, I've gone from scepticism to anger and disbelief at the ethically bankrupt railroading I'm watching right now.

 

[Kadoober]

I am finally listening/watching today while I am at work. It's a light day, and I don't have to think much about what I am working on

The last trial I watched was Jodi Arias, and while listening I can't help thinking of wonder duo Martinez/Flores, and wishing so much that they were who we were seeing right now.

I know this is petty, but I cannot believe how many times I just heard a Detective say the word 'like', rather than 'said', 'typed', etc. I am genuinely shocked.

I'm trying to see the pattern emerging, I see the stepping stones, but my goodness the execution so far is just painful.

She has actually sustained a bunch of the "leading" objections.

I've gone from suspicious to angry and now finally to bored.
