[Betty P]

He's establishing that she resorted to her training, relied on it. Wish we could see his exhibit he's discussing.

He's establishing she could see to the back of the apartment and is trying to establish that she could see the main pathway in the apartment.

 

[iluvmua]

I would not be texting at all.

 

[Wishbone]

Admitted she intended to kill Botham

 

[sloane7777]

Ah, come on, share

yes yes , I bet I'm thinking along the same lines

 

[Betty P]

She is saying he was standing up when she shot him. Says how was there a bullet hole in one place on the wall when he was standing somewhere else. They must not line up.

Prosecutor says he must have been bending over when shot, but she says he was standing straight up. Says she was looking at him, shot him where they are trained to aim, in the center mass. At the time she knew she was using deadly force against him.

Admitted again she intended to kill him, prosecution is making sure she says this.

 

[Wishbone]

closest neighbors did not hear her say or yell anything to Botham before she killed him.

 

[Betty P]

Prosecution pointing out she was standing in the threshold of the door when she shouted "Let me see your hands" twice. Neighbors across the hall and next door testified they didn't hear her say that.

She was partly in the hallway when she supposedly shouted those commands.

Prosecution also says she stated that she wanted to go in and find the threat before she had completely opened the door to look inside.

Going in to find the threat was her only option she said. He's pointing out her training says to pull out and call for help first.

Says her training abandoned her.

 

[sloane7777]

She just said she couldn't retreat and cover and conceal.

 

[lonetraveler]

At this point I'm not understanding why she did not just plead guilty to a lesser charge.

 

[Cortne]

WOW!! is all I can say.

[sloane7777]

he's asking why she couldn't have retreated and called for backup ? She just said she could have .

 

[Cortne]

Is this verbatim? If so, her goose is cooked.

Amateur opinion and speculation

Yes ma'am

 

[Weki]

Her whole testimony has been eviscerated. We've gone beyond unreasonableness to outright lies in her testimony. Guilty of murder, period!

Prosecution says she could have called on her radio and had help in 2 minutes, she was so close to the station.

Had she done that Jean would have been alive. She says yes.

Admits she could have backed off on 2 different occasions, but she didn't.

When she heard the noise inside while unlocking the door and when she opened the door and saw his silhouette.

 

[iluvmua]

Couldn't she have ran around the corner, hid and then called for back up?

Exactly what I posted earlier in the thread, the apt complex is only 4 min walking distance from the police station!!!!
