Yes, I have been lucky to manage around my work to attend. I have many observations of course, just ask away and I am happy to answer if I possibly can. One thing I would say is to not to take gossip on some tatty/salty forums seriously, enjoy the ride.

In your view, was there anything important covered in court that didn't make it into daily reports? Were the daily reports missing lots of information?

If they've agreed to devote a full day to each charge, it'll be the twenty-second and therefore last tomorrow.

I’d be interested to know what you thought of LL’s general demeanour if you observed her in court.

 

[CS2C]

Oh well looks like there was a good reason to be optimistic earlier.

My friend just said "He is right to be fair, like I say there was wayyyy more camera crew there and they had only just arrived when he messaged"

Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

I kind of get that; it's the end of the week and, psychologically speaking, people tend to want to conclude things in time with week endings.

It seems to be not uncommon that Fridays seem to be sentencing days, in my totally unqualified, anecdotal opinion!

She was serious, ashen in appearance. Spoke clearly (well spoken) and held up well against prosecution questions. Concentrating throughout. Her hair is very straight and brown, she looks serious as would anyone. Smart blue suit throughout. She was calm, her prison officers helped with all the court files as the days went on.

The main reason I got interested in this case (other than it was total lockdown at the time so there was literally nowt else to do do) is that
I genuinely find her utterly fascinating.

To me, mostly from her FB photos, she never presented as anything other than utterly normal!

Reading the press reports after a day in court I found them to be vague, not saying anything in context and not covering the full picture. As for anything "important" I cannot say.

There is nothing anywhere in her past to say she is anything less than a young woman doing normal things. I get what you are saying entirely.

At least there isn't that we know of yet.

Was her face showing distinct emotions:
despair, fear, anger, hope, hopelessness, surprise, self confidence, etc.?

Or was it always calmness and concentration?

 

[CS2C]

For me that was by far the best artist impression. No sign of emotion apart from one single occasion where she snapped back at Mr Johnson. Her overall look was just wide eyed with occasional rapid blinking. I’ll be interested to hear James opinion.

Perhaps a (little) despair mixed with frustration and hope. I couldn't see any signs of the last three.
(I couldn't categorise like that). I did observe her giving detailed answers to the prosecution around her work, she was eloquent and professional.

Of course not

I guess we all see things differently, she countered NJ several times but I wouldn't say she snapped at him. I do remember NJ being told off by the judge several times for poor questioning tho. Yes to rapid blinking on the first day of her being on the stand.

Thank you. Cool customer.

Bit scruffy, same suit, greasy hair. Not my type

"The more stressed a person becomes, the higher the blink rate.

Rapid eye blinking is a sign of nervousness, anxiety, or deception.

If you see a blink rate higher than twenty per minute, that person could be under stress depending on the context of the situation."

What could be more stressful than being on the stand in a courtroom accused of murder?

Bit scruffy, same suit, greasy hair. <modsnip - off topic>

I doubt she has time for a leisurely beauty routine before setting out for court each morning.
