for posting updates here as the trial goes along! I'm following quite a few right now - and it helps! :)

Sorry - but I have to ask - and can't watch the videos - but WHO did these people testify for - the Defense??

Andrew Cherkasky Terri Austin. Dr Mini Thomas. Matthew Thomas, Hanley Mathews

Are one of them Wesley's bro, and 2 of them from the church?? TIA!

I look forward to the prosector's closing argument. I hope it's an absolute decimation.

Judge reading charges to the jury now and then closing arguments.

State starting closing arguments.

How many of their fellow church members would have willingly and openly embraced raising Sherin? It seems like many, many would have. This child would have had a chance with just about anyone else. She was not a defective product. She should not have been punished daily by these people for not being what they expected. Both of these people failed not only as parents, but as humans. And he still doesn't get that.

State finished. Not overly impressed with their closing.

That was a weak closing and it makes me very nervous.

State gets one more shot, right?

Only the church members and his brother testified for WM. The defence said they had planned more witnesses but decided to withdraw them after WM took the stand.

Sorry for the messed up posting, my access to the site went haywire!

The prosecutor looks like Fred from The Handmaid's Tale!

Jerri, the site was bad for me, sound kept dropping out on Law an£ Crime.

Pros now up.

I don't have the opportunity to type out everything being said, but this guy is doing so much better. He is really hammering home what kind of "person" WM is. Some pointed remarks from him:

"He had to show Sherin he was in charge. “Drink your milk, because you’re just the girl.” "Good dads don't dump their daughters in sewage drains."

Yes, but who are the church members?

Andrew Cherkasky OR Terri Austin OR Dr Mini Thomas OR Matthew Thomas?

and if only 2 of the above are members - who are the other 2?

I just want to keep my notes straight! :)

I take it - Hanley Mathews - is Wesley's older brother?

TIAA!

#SherinMathews Trial: Prosecutor tells jury Sherin “died looking into the eyes of her protector. She died looking into her father’s eyes, not a dad, a father in name only”

*Sorry, I don't know why the twitter link didn't copy.

I think the defense attorney made it worse for his client. He kept trying to make excuses for WM--' "he made poor decision.' ...' let's be fair to him and Sherin.'

I don't think he helped WM that much.
