"Feldman forces them to stay awake."

If they are staying awake, then they are listening.

Perhaps those two jurors are thinking that they would reach a verdict more quickly if they were sequestered.

Doesn't matter what their reason is. Why isn't the judge doing so? This is not the first appeal to having a sequestered jury in this trial. Defense specifically ASKED, PLEADED the court to do so. Now the DARN JURY is asking to have it done. AND YET MUDD IGNORES THEM. WHY WHY WHY ?

"MUDD IGNORES THEM. WHY WHY WHY ?"

I can answer that in 2 words: County funds.

I think your "GLOSSARY" has gotten to be a bit much. Maybe it's time to lose it?

Does anyone know why when they were only holding hearings without the jury present, only court tv cameras were on? The webcast feeds were not covering them.

isn't it going to cost the county a lot more when the case has to be retried due to a hung jury?

Not as much as when Westerfield is acquitted and sues.

This will be going on for a long time. If he is found guilty, there is plenty of reason to appeal. If acquitted, he will be suing court tv for their inaccurate reporting, and well, really suing almost everyone involved.

Yes...considerably more. There will be more costly anlysis of evidence, more costly experts testifying, etc., etc.

They'll cross that bridge when they get to it. At the moment, they don't want to possibly waste county funds
on sequestration. I'm sure this trial already has cost
them a bundle more than they'd like.

If it comes to a retrial, I'm sure that jury will be sequestered.

Judge Mudd STILL refuses to Sequester the Jury, even tho they have sent him NOTES saying they are under pressure...

"Oh Jury, Jury, Jury, just don't pay those people no mind! I have faith in you. I'd advise you to watch Court TV to keep the details fresh in your memory."

You're not whistling Dixie there. Let's see, the vdams, LE, DA for starters. I will be "glued" to any and all
SD websites to follow it, too.

>>>I find nothing strange about a man stopping by the dry cleaners on the way home from a trip. I also find nothing strange about a single man taking his motor home on a wandering trip over the weekend.<<<

I find nothing strange about OJ having cuts all over his hand dripping blood.

The key thing is the terribly "unlucky" timing.

>>>Had DW done as you claim there would have been MORE blood and MORE fingerprints and MORE fiber evidence in his environment.<<<

Maybe. But not if he cleaned most of it up.
