I think you are right. You know we were critical when Seidlin would take over and question witnesses, but he actually saved a lot of time by doing so because he went right to the heart of the matter... as evidenced by HKS extreme nervousness during his pointed questioning, and HKS purjured himself bigtime.
If Howard is found guilty of murder, he cannot profit from the death of Anna and from what I've heard, there is no Tiffany store at alcatraz.
I guess I'm laughing. He might have physical goods and he certainly doesn't REALLY want the baby. So what does he have...Nothing...He'll wind up a hermit...In his own little world...
Pretty hard to say "accidental death" because of all the scenarios he obviously "Directed".
Honestly, as I was watching the trial the first time, I had the sense that I just wanted the grandstanding lawyers (Opri and O'Quinn come to mind first) to step out of the way and let Seidlin just question him. Their cross examinations, actually derailed some pretty interesting lines of questioning that Seidlin was doing.
