Casey Anthony Live Trial Thread, Day 45: CLOSIING ARGUMENTS (7/03/11)

July 3, 2011 | truthkeeper

[truthkeeper]

Good Morning to all. Closing Arguments are today.

I apologize in advance if you were either left off today's ping list or included in error. I am not at home and forgot to forward my pinglist to my friend's house, so I've had to check some older threads and reconstruct as many names as possible. If I missed you I'm sorry.

I probably won't be able to post much on this thread, but after I am home I will keep my ear to the television/radio for the jury decision, and will ping again when I hear so we can have a discussion thread.

Let me know if you want on or off the ping list.

[miss marmelstein]

What did I miss? I practically fell asleep.

[patriot08]

Oops- that woke Yoda up.

Yoda should reprimand the prosecution attorney for the smirk on his face and the smiling/laughing.
He had a sign that said ‘watch your facial expression’ after all.

[paul revere is riding]

I hope the judge lets prosecution wrap up there side tonight no matter how late. If I were on the jury I would want that too.

[NormsRevenge]

I don’t know,, maybe George kept the duct tape locked away.

There are probably a few who do.. :-)

[Rapunzel]

I am afraid you may be right. Ashton needs to control himself better. I'm not certain that I could though. I would have already blurted out for Baez to STFU.
Baez handled it wrong about Ashton. Maybe the nudge will get them both.

[miss marmelstein]

And maybe it was a PACKAGE of duct tape. Like, you know, TWO rolls of identical duct tape - sorta like I have in my kitchen.

[screaminsunshine]

Blithering. Amazing. Some people are unable to think in a reasoned manner.
Just can not get away from the media tempalat. No wonder Obama is the President. Watch and learn.

[Thank You Rush]

“”We all worry about #4!””

They said on HLN before the noon recess was over that juror #5 is a problem also - same as #4 - doesn’t want to judge anyone. I have no idea why either one got on the jury.

[An American In Dairyland]

If the duct tape was in the house, garage, or shed ALL 4 of them had access to it. Casey showed how things locked up in the shed didn’t keep her from getting to them and even if Lee didn’t live there he surely had a house key and could come and go at will.

[CynicalBear]

The Judge specifically warned against facial expressions. I’m not so sure the judge wasn’t sustaining an objection that he thought was about Ashton laughing.

[screaminsunshine]

If Baez does his job it will be. Judge Kangaroo and Ashton will get disbarred for this display.

[CAluvdubya]

I just ran it back on the DVR and Ashton was sitting abck with his hand covering his entire mouth and a little bit of his nose. His facial expression was blank, almost bored until Baez uttered the phrase, "smilin guy". At that point, Ashton jumped up and objected.

Right before this incident, Ashton looked bored. The only time I've seen any facial expression from Ashton today was when Baez mad a "cut the cheese" joke (during a death penalty trial summation???), for which Ashton was reprimanded.

[Chandalier]

Didn’t look that way to me, but I guess we’ll see.

[EDINVA]

Ashton handed Baez a legitimate gripe. A lawyer (or party) does not laugh or smirk or shake his head during the other side’s presentation.

While it’s comical to have to listen to Baez, the prosecutors knew that going in. They can smirk/laugh all they want in their office, but not in the courtroom.

[truthkeeper]

LOL, you got it.

[MEG33]

Baez has been questioning the motives of the prosecution..JA “has been suppressing laughs..covering his face..Baez said behind this laughing face” pointing at Jeff and the judge was out of his chair sustaining as objection made.

NOT supposed to do personal attacks.

[Thank You Rush]

“”What did I miss? I practically fell asleep.””

I’m glad I’m not on the jury because I’m having a hard time staying awake also. I want to lie down and watch it but I know that would be a big mistake. I might not wake up before court adjourns and I don’t want to miss anything.

I have never seen jury sent out amidst a sidebar in the middle of a closing. I don’t like what this may portend in #CaseyAnthony

#baez is repeatedly violating #JudgePerry order not to present editorial comments. Wonder if he read it.

I am sure they are both getting a lecture.

[miss marmelstein]

Now that we’re on break, can someone tell me who this awful woman is who is conducting the HLN stuff? She either has the worst wig or the worst color job in the country. Because of her screeching and stupidity, my husband is now stuck upstairs refusing to come downstairs.
