Don't worry, easy mistake to make.

You only have about half an hour to edit.

The admin/mod team seem to be mainly North American, so probably still asleep. They should change it when they get time.

Not much, but it must be from today (via google):
_______________

Richard Horwell recalled the contents of a note written by Sophie's hand, found in the family apartment: "Why me? I need help to stop them."


"Together, they started, together they finished and they must now accept the consequences of their actions"
, concluded the magistrate, Richard Horwelle.


Ouissem Medouni's lawyer, Orlando Pownall, made a point of distinguishing the responsibilities of the two accused, urging the jury to "resist the temptation to put them in the same bag".


For the lawyer, Sabrina Kouider "suffers from mental problems", obsessions, and a "violent temperament".
"Opposites attract," according to the lawyer. Sabrina Kouider, "it's the violent person" and Ouissem Medouni, "it's the exact opposite, it's passive, she used it, it was her stopgap".

I meant to say the other day and then it slipped my mind, it was a standout point the prosecutor made about them continuing to have Sophie sleep in the children's bedroom. It made it crystal clear that they did not believe what they were accusing her of doing.

Should be SK's defence closing speech this morning. I wonder if the judge will start his summing up today or give the jury the afternoon off and start on Monday. I'd imagine he'll want to hurry this up now, it's been a long 8 weeks.

I hope that it will soon be over. I really can't think of anything much to say in SK's defence. I know that there will be some effort but there isn't much positive to say about her in my view.

Michelle are you in court today? I wonder how SK is behaving (or misbehaving again) today after the warning from the judge.

I think these defence barristers must be competing to see who can talk the longest. I don't know how anyone could stand and talk about SK for over three hours, particularly since we've heard nothing redeeming about her. He's probably slating OM actually, so SK will be in a better mood today.

..But "the fact that she screams a lot and is verbally and physically aggressive does not make her a murderer," he said.

On the contrary, "serious physical assault is not her thing," the lawyer argued, assuring his client was quick to resort to the police to resolve her conflicts.

... "Their goal was to get evidence." "If she died, they would not have that evidence," "they needed a witness," he said.
The couple did not intend to kill or seriously wound Sophie Lionnet but "to make her talk, to extract information from her," according to Peart.

...Sabrina Kouider had no motive to kill Sophie Lionnet. And no witness saw her kill the au pair. "Even Mr. Medouni can not say that he saw Sabrina kill Sophie," said the lawyer.


Mr. Peart called on the jurors to "put aside their emotions" and "examine the evidence with a clinical eye."

Hopefully they're straight on to summing up on Monday morning.

now this is just taking the biscuit. Peart obviously didn't like that he got a Friday and the jury had the weekend to forget his whitewash. or should that be hogwash.

Via google translate.

On Monday morning, Sabrina Kouider's attorney, Icah Peart, wrapped up her case last week by trying to cast doubt in the minds of jurors about Mr. Medouni's personality. "It may not be the kind of man to lose his temper," he said. "But when he loses it, it's better not to find his way . "

"He killed Sophie and is now trying to get Sabrina to wear the hat ," he added, trying to portray as "indisputable" the fact that he was, as a man, "far better equipped" than Sabrina Kouider to inflict fatal injuries on the victim.

The body of the latter had multiple fractures to the sternum , ribs and jaw, but because of burns the exact cause of death could not be determined.

Sabrina Kouider is a contrario, according to the lawyer, a woman certainly "passionate" and "unpredictable" but "she is in no way a killer calculating coolness . "
