If Catherine Crier continues to have this idiot defense atty Gottlieb(?) on every day then her show's another one I'm going to have to scratch.

Really, this guy is a bigger boob than Falconer. He's perfectly willing to reject the facts of all of SP's self incriminating statements, his lies, the fact that he not only had the means (the newly purchased boat), motive (a lifestyle crimping baby), total lack of remorse for missing wife/child, Christmas Eve "fishing trip" to (whatta you know) exactly the same place the bodies washed up.

The idiot not only brushes all this aside but then brings up THE HOMELESS PEOPLE in the neighborhood. Well, what are the homeless folk in your area like? In mine the really top level ones have a bicycle for transportation. So a homeless person BIKED the bodies 90 miles to the bay? !!! Or, maybe they hitchhiked there with poor Laci over their shoulder.

I am so SICK of these phony devil's advocate jerks on every channel that I guess the only answer is the old off button.

Our prayer has to be that jury does not check their common sense at the court house door, and (for heaven's sake) that they watch none of these irresponsible TV gabfests.

Let's hope the redirect clears it up. Wish the prosecutors would defuse these things upfront.

EXCELLENT! This could be the reason the judge dismissed him. This didn't come out til after the judge first ruled that he could stay on the jury. But of course #5 shot his mouth off one time too many and the judge booted him. (of course, by now he's shot his mouth off much more than once too often)

I'm sure that's what it is. Your family and friends are not even supposed to know what trial you're a juror for, let alone talk to you about the media coverage! How stupid do you have to be to complain to the judge about the way the media's covering you, and say that your family and friends have told you what the media said? No wonder Geragos is peeved he lost this juror.

This certainly looks bad. However, what if Laci did know about the boat on the 23rd? Snott still could have killed her.. Brocchini's error might be just that- another error among many. This still does not clear Snott and his shifting Alibi and his lies about lies...Geragos is simply capitalizing on the many errors of the investigators to try to make Snott look innocent.

RG, for the first time, I do feel the prosecution is blowing this case by not seeing the big picture, and it kills me.

The key word about the warehouse visit is: saw Laci "at" or "in" Scott's warehouse. There is a world of difference, as there is in DAs.

This I will give MG, he does know how to manipulate for his client, right or wrong...he makes the most of every moment. I still am not sure #5 wasn't there in order to get #6 on the jury, just cynical me.

Its hard to tell how it came off in the courtroom. Maybe it seemed like an innocent mistake, and maybe it seemed more like Brocchini left it out to strengthen the case against Scott. The jury (minus juror #5) will only be able to explain away a certain number of errors before they become suspicious.

We know that Geragos is using the gag order to his advantage, dropping inuendos that just sit there, because the prosecution can't and won't clear them up. (Remind anybody else of the Clinton White House and Ken Starr?)

Redirect can give Det B. a chance to explain his reasoning.

The witnesses saw a women with black pants and white top. There's only a 10 minute window in which Laci could have been seen theorectically walking the dog. Easy to discount 'me-too' bogus witnesses.

And the media sure seems to be falling all over themselves to paint the prosecution in the direst light.

I'll wait patiently to see what they have to show the jury. Sharon is confident, and the Rocha-Grantskis seem to think that Laci is overseeing all of this from heaven. :-) (This must be a breeze after she managed to get hers and the baby's bodies up on that beach.) lol

I agree; I know we had our problems and disagreements in the beginning, but we've worked those things out now and I don't want to have to REEDUACATE every single person who drops onto a thread.......LOL.

Me neither! LOL! This one is a piece of work...he/she is loving all of the attention. I think I got drawn in because of the attacks on the victim and the family. That just gets me in my heart and soul.
Now he/she seems to think he/she has some validation because of Wolfs post....sheesh.

I think over the past year and a half we have sorted thru allot of differences, trolls, disruptors, and learned about each others posting style.
I am honored to be in the company we keep here. ;o)
