There isn't a genuine bone in the man's body. I've thought that of him ever since about 1998, when he used to use his really high-level debating technique--shouting loudly so the other side can't be heard--to defend The Rapist.
Looks like Monica from the neck up only: this girl is way too thin. Last pix I've seen of her, The Portly Pepperpot is portlier than ever - a Jenny Craig dropout.
Another O.J. Simpleton trial.
I wonder if that is a picture of Aphrodite Jones the author.
I am starting to doubt that Amber was hiding some of her conversations with Scott from the police, when she had promised to let them in on all her contacts with Scott. It's starting to sound like more Geragos ....
----
From what I read, the doubt didn't originate with Geragos but Geragos will use this too. Jacobson the LE surveillence guy found that the number of recordings didn't jive with hers. For example, on Dec. 26 Amber reported 14 calls Jacobson reported 17. There were other problems too. In January Amber used other phones that were not (wired?) to converse with Snott. Jacobson was alarmed at the time and he met with (superiors?) over the issue..
Blam!
Well , if there were other calls they WILL come out. I can see how at first Amber would not want to believe that Scott could really be involved with this. Denial you know.
I just heard stan Goldman talking about the evidence photos which were released yesterday. I tried to look at them on the Mod. Bee web-site, gat a virus warning, and now my computer will not open them. Be careful.
I wanted to look at the photo of the phone book which was- according to Stan(FOX NEWS)-open to criminal defense attorneys on the evening of the 24th.
Pardon my spelling errors, not enough coffee yet....LOL!!
There are two views of the phone book. One from a distance of 4-5 feet clearly shows a book that is probably a yellow page only edition. It is opened just past the informational section with the green pages starting on the right of center. On a closer view of the book one can see that on the left side is a big old promo ad outlined in bright yellow with red printing, the last few letters of the word DEFENSE can be distinguished. Wonder if that's McCallister's ad? (Anybody out there with a 2002 Modesto phone book?)
wow... I might have one here at work .. should I look for McAllister's ad?
LOL... might...
Look at the misfit webpage. She has a photo up of that page.

McAllister or whoever would be the first full page defense attorney ad with a bright yellow border and red printing. It would be a 2002 or earlier book, I don't see white pages. The ad is directly across from the first green page. Might even be an imposter yellow page book.
RG: No, I had a 2001 I think... Didn't think I would keep one that long. But McAllister only had a simple listing by defense trade, no ads. Only ones with ads, (last names) Gaza, Conner, Magana,Falkner, and Chase that has big words, "defense".... Maybe another Modestan might have one.....
Check out post #33, that is the ad. It's not the same book but the last four digits of the phone number are the same as in the ad shown in the evidence photos.
Usually the personal injury attorneys post those nice ads, like local Mark Nelson, BK and personal injury attorney etc....
Thanks for the link!
Now does anyone remember if Scott called that attorney. I thought he had three different attorneys, but that could mean McAllister, the public defender, and then Geragos.
Thanks for the info. Heaven knows, it's certainly a million times more reliable than what I'd get if I just listened to quotes of Geragos' off-the-wall cross exam!
Okay, so let's see where this leaves us. It kind of makes sense, you know? I mean, let's put ourselves in Amber's place... you're going out with this guy, you're having a great time together, then all this really bad stuff happens, you find out he's been hiding a lot of things... but you still haven't forgotten the good times. You find that you can't just go from liking him a lot, to despising him, all at once, like the flip of a switch. You aren't sure whether to believe that he murdered his wife, or not... it doesn't seem possible... but you know that if you start to believe he DID do it, you will RUN, not walk, away--after blowing the whistle on him.
So, while you're too afraid to not help the police, and you want to do the right thing, you just can't resist the chance to talk to him completely privately. So that you can get a sense of what's REALLY happening, so that maybe, just maybe, through pressure (sexual and otherwise), maybe you can get this puzzling man to tell you the frikkin' TRUTH for a change!
Frankly, IMO, the overall impression I get is of Amber as a human being, put in a situation that would baffle any of us, not out to hang Scott, but also buying less and less of his spiel. To me, that all looks quite natural, and I don't see the jury holding it against her; in fact, I think it may even make the jury sort of sympathetic towards her.
