trial thread: 3/16/2012

How is this possible? If someone had just kicked her and fractured her ribs, hard enough to lacerate her liver -- then how it is she had "no wounds" on her body?? She'd have had bruising in the area where she was kicked. :twocents:

Unless she didnt actually kick her so she wouldnt have seen them?

 

[flipflop]

AM980_Court any chance that the legal issues that come up can be reported on at another time?

yes, once the trial is over.

Crown Gowdey asks her again why she told police Rafferty killed Tori if it wasn't true. She says she did it to get Rafferty arrested

Video is over. Gowdey asks why she lied to police about kicking Tori.

McClintic is again being asked by the crown about her statements this week and her statement in may 2009

Crown now showing the next clip

Clip describes the placement of Tori after te murder

WARNING testimony is graphic. Please be warned

McClintic says they used two or three bags. Much of the statement is too graphic

Gowdey asks McClintic how she wouldn't know how many times Tori was kicked, if she did the kicking.

She says she closed her eyes or turned her back while Rafferty used the hammer

McClintic says she kicked tori. Not #rafferty as previous statement in may 2009 said.

McClintic says she also "stomped" Tori, not Rafferty.

Why do I have this sinking feeling in the pit of my stomache?!

Video ends. McClintic said again (in 2009) Rafferty kicked Tori in the ribs. Says today it was herself.

McClintic says parts of her statement in may 2009 wasn't correct

McClintic again reaffirms that she was the only one who hit and kicked Tori

McClintic says she and Rafferty both put rocks on Tori. Says that's the truth.

Gowdey says his questions for McClintic are finished "to this point". There are more legal arguments left. The jury is excused.

Court done for the day. #rafferty. Court will be back on Tuesday

I think she and the truth are strangers :moo:

and I further think that the forensics and other evidence are going to be the real story in this case (what puts them both there at the scene)

:moo:
