Prosecutors aren't in it for the money. They don't make the big bucks like the high power defense attorneys do. Good prosecutors are in it for their idealism. And passion accompanies that idealism. A passion for the victims of the crimes. The prosecution has the burden of proof. I personally did not witness any lying or manipulating by BZ.

He lied a bunch. He lied at least 3 times in closing. He said BC was one of only 1xx (I can't recall the exact number) of voip experts in the world. It wasn't true on July 12th 2008 and wasn't even true when BC took the CCIE exam. He lied during closing when he indicated that the Saturday morning searches took place on BCs work laptop. They didn't...they were done on the downstairs family PC. He lied in closing when he said the Cisco witness said a spoofed call would last 22 seconds, which conveniently matches the duration of the 6:05 call. The witness didn't say that. He said 23 seconds...no more, no less. Shall I continue? There was one point where, in my opinion, he kept intentionally giving the wrong name during a cross examination. I don't remember who/what, but he kept saying something belonged to the wrong person, to the point that the judge corrected him. In my opinion, he lied/manipulated the judge concerning computer evidence and took advantage of JGs incompetence with regards to computer evidence.

This trial was "clean" in that regard ... and look at the result!
 
For a group of folks who can't agree, they sure are taking a long time deciding that they can't agree. Glad they are talking about it, that is the way it is supposed to be. Wonder if that means it is no longer 6 - 6.
 
After Myron Britt's mistrial (11-1, then conviction), he waited for retrial in Central Prison vs County Jail.


Now, I'd like that even better if they went ahead and sent him to the Big House to wait it out. That'd be a nice orientation since it will be his permanent residence once they get it right in the retrial.
 
Keep it over there!

Will try to. We really need it, as do our gardens, lawn, vegetables, etc. It's still really dark here, hoping for a bit more rain. We had some brief, but strong, thunderstorms. But the rain has stopped. I hope these still ominous cloulds give us a bit more rain. Sure don't want our well to run dry. :banghead:

Ah, the thunder is picking up again as we speak. :seeya:

I certainly don't want to argue with you about it. Truly. I saw nothing different in BC's trial than I've seen in the hundreds of others I've followed. More times then not, one side or the other will mis-state something. That's why the judge continually says 'the opening statements and closing arguments by the attorneys are NOT evidence. You are to rely upon your own notes and memories of the EVIDENCE." All the trials and cases the collective *we* remember, are those involving passion, committment, good strong prosecutors. We remember the attorney who prosecuted Betty Broderick, we remember the second team that prosecuted the Menendez Bros., we remember the prosecutors of Scott Peterson, and we especially remember the likes of Freida Black and James Blackburn. MOO MOO MOO
 
Hi folks, had a doctor's appointment this morning. I just dropped in expecting that a verdict had been reached but I see that it is still a work in progress. That's not a good sign. 6 to 6? Hummmmmmmmmm. In my experience it is generally easier to bring jurors over to the non-guilty side than a guilty side due to some jurors' interpretation of "reasonable doubt" and that they prefer to be in error on a not guilty verdict than send someone to life in prison for an error of a guilty verdict. Personally, I'd rather have a hung jury on this case than a not guilty verdict.:twocents:
