Judge says they will not take lunch break. They will work 4 hours with a break in between. :judge:

Missed this witnesses name. He is an investigator for the ME.

Here is a site that shows the photos of the judge & attorneys (& MacNeill family) with their names and brief bios. I found it helpful.

I am more concerned about the testimony coming from someone who is clean as a whistle and as dirty as they come. Kinda like MacNeill before his daughters understood the father they knew was a total sham and started pressing for justice for their mother.

Just outline what each inmate has done/been convicted of and let the jury weight that in.

I am going on gut instinct with Mr. P - there is so much information that this inmate is an opportunist/criminal and all around bad guy, and I feel this will come across to the jury and not help the prosecution.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out!

 

[Softail]

Interesting. He is an investigator, but never spoke to Alexis, or any of the neighbors. :waitasec:

I'm not seeing the purpose of this testimony. :dunno:

ddsmiley: Defense is already doing cross.

I have noticed some witnesses seem well prepared as if they have refreshed their memories before appearing in court and others like this current gentleman have no recollection while testifying.

Are there posters here with a legal background? How do you feel? Better for your witness to be prepared or wing it?

Is anyone else having major sound issues on WAT?

Never mind, child used my earbuds and messed them up.

The state's attorney had to roll his eyes at that whopper from Spencer!

WHAT THE FRACK???? The things that website says about Damian make me so angry! The defense was trying to throw HIM under the bus?!?!?!? :stormingmad:

http://www.courtchatter.com/p/macneill-case-players.html

In a motion to the court on Dec 17, 2012, MacNeill’s defense attorneys suggest that Damian may have been involved in his mother’s murder. In the motion, among other things, it states, "Investigators in the Utah County Attorney’s Office deemed (Damian MacNeill) to be a very dangerous individual who possessed homicidal impulses and discussed the "joys of killing". Yet defense attorneys claim that Michele’s death was not a homicide.

The State is outlining their case and this witness is agreeing that if he had known ... would that have raised suspicion.

The defense is a big, fat copycat.

MacNeill looks worried.
