Trial Thread 8 May 2012 Wrapping up Closing Arguments

[nursebeeme]

MR drove the car up to the store, where TLM was coming out with a bag.

Of course he popped the trunk..............

Sheesh............the Crown is really looking desperate with some of this stuff.

they seem to be tying it all together... I don't find it desperate at all.

Derstine's suggestions to McClintic are not evidence, Gowdey reminds the jury.

If McClintic was the driving force, she wouldn't have had the time to describe the lane way, silos, house.

RaffertyLFP: Gowdey says Tori's body was naked was waste down massive injuries from four blows to skull

Showing the photo of Tori's body in a garbage bag.

Gowdey says Tori's lower extremities were bare, reminds us of the bottle caps.

I was hoping he would remind the jury of this!!!!

From where I sit, I haven't seen any desperation since yesterday.

RaffertyLFP Gowdey reject defense suggestion that Rafferty left the crime scene and was horrified to come back and find Tori dead

Crown also reminds JURY ..there is no evidence to support Defences clain of this yesterday !

Exactly. If MTR popped the trunk without TLM telling him to, doesn't that make it even more unlikely that TLM was trying to hide it from him?

RaffertyLFP: Gowdey said Tor's body was naked from waste down and four blows to head from hammer

Skull fractures were so severe, the skull was difficult to put together.

RaffertyLFP: Gowdey disputes that murder scene was quite bloody - garbage bag around head would have limited that

 

[Flowercb]

To me it's like trying to testify without getting up on the stand. It should not be allowed. Although I don't know that a contempt charge would scare the defendent right now.

MOO

Yes, my thoughts exactly. Casey Anthony mouthed "liar" when he father was on the stand. MOO.

Crown showing some autopsy photos. Gowdey holds up hammer as picture of crushed skull is shown on monitor

Crown picking apart Defence theory of what happened: "There’s no evidence, sensational horrible suggestions yet, but no evidence at all"

 

[Wondergirl]

I agree nurse ... it was more tongue-in-cheek about his overall personality ... nobody (whether his lawyer or TLM) controls what MTR does ... he does what he wants.

RaffertyLFP Gowdey reject defense suggestion that Rafferty left the crime scene and was horrified to come back and find Tori dead

crown is now showing ppictures to the jury and Tori's body was left bare from waist down....Imo that is hard to even type ...sorry ..robynhood

RaffertyLFP Gowdey reject defense suggestion that Rafferty left the crime scene and was horrified to come back and find Tori dead

 

[Thinkzerz]

Tori was beaten with a hammer. I believe that if it was MR that killed Tori he would have strangled or knifed Tori. TLM had the mind of brutally beating someone. JMO

 

[Sailor Bug]

Going over Tori's other injuries. Broken ribs, lacerated liver.

Derstine said it was a bloody scene. Gowdey disagrees. Notes Pollanen's evidence.

RaffertyLFP: Gowdey said decomposition did not allow for evidence of sexual assault - because body was so well hidden

 

[Wondergirl]

Yes, my thoughts exactly. Casey Anthony mouthed "liar" when he father was on the stand. MOO.

Funny how Rafferty et al. have taken some cues from CA's case, eh? Power of the Internet and all.
