I was out of town, offline and away from trial coverage for a week and 1/2. As for election coverage, every time I turn on the news I see JFn's propoganda, which gives me irritable bowel syndrome :O I'm not paying attention to the polls....I'm waiting for the important one on Tuesday. Been watching alot of Law and Order reruns instead of campaign coverage...lol.

NO, he will have to be re-tried!! You can be sure that if it's a hung jury, the Prosecutors will have the charges re-filed before Peterson can get out of his seat. PLUS he won't get bail either. He's a PROVEN flight risk!!

I heard they were going to allow a 2nd degree as well. He would get TWO counts tho. Two people died at his hands.

Howlin.....
Thanks for the ping about the jury resting.
I am trying to NOT watch too much news this week. Although I don't have a heart condition, I'm convinced I will develop one by next Tuesday.
So I am relying primarily on FR for my "news".
Runningbear..thanks for all the pings for this trial...and thanks to all others who posted information about the trial. I have been able to "lurk and learn" (for the most part).
Again....thanks

LOL-anyone with a shred of common sense knew that was all smoke and mirrors. He doesn't have anywhere to go because he presented no reasonable alternative theory....and the jury most likely won't believe anything he floats in closings. He should have rested immediately....he has made it easier for the jury to convict, imo. Fiegers prediction of the quickest conviction ever may just come true. Looking at it from the other end, where a guy's life is on the line, this is really pathetic. Fox said today that Scott wanted to testify, but Geragos wouldn't let him.
Shoddy, very shoddy.
Scott will appeal if the verdict is guilty. We all know that will happen.

As much as I hate to admit it, Snotty actually has a strong argument that his conviction should be overturned or retried because his lawyer failed to vigorously defend him. Geragoon's defense has been appalling, and has consistently made Peterson look guiltier with every blundering attempt to clear him.
Of course, the possibility exists that this was the idea all along. Tank the first case, appeal it, and concentrate on a retrial after the media and national attention has faded off. Without the daily scrutiny by hundreds of pundits, forensic analysts, and attorneys across the country, Scott will find it much easier to lie and get away with it.

Garagos is nothing but a big blow hard. Everyone said what an attorney to go up against and what a baffoon the Prosecution was, but look who's the baffoon now.
I sure don't feel sorry for Scott, but my Lord! What's up with this!
I think you're right: they will appeal and he will get a new trial. Gag!

Did Jackie or Lee ever explain why Scott bought the used car using his mother's name? As I remember, the car dealer asked Scott why his name was Jacqueline and Scott said it was like the song "A Boy Called Sue". I'm sure their explanation would be quite creative.

"Fox said today that Scott wanted to testify, but Geragos wouldn't let him. GAGagross may have talked Scott out of testifying, but I don't think if Scott really insisted that GAGagross could prevent him from doing so.

California has a gazillion AUTOMATIC appeals anyway SheLion!! But I agree, pretty shoddy defense for a million bucks!! But then again, HOW do you defend someone so obviouly GUILTY? Truthfully, he convicted himself by his own MOUTH on the wiretaps and his bizarre ACTIONS!! This is NOT a normal person. He really thought that he would have all this stuff wrapped up in a month. ie: Amber, I'll be able to be exclusive with you by January 25th!!

Did everyone just hear Pixley say he gets calls from the Petersons to "set the record straight?" Hellooooo? Are they not under a gag order?
Surely the prosecution will bring in the tape "deny deny deny" that to discredit Jackie Peterson. No one has sympathy for that woman, especially after Geragoes and team trying to discredit the Sharon Rocha.

What kills me is how the media built up Garagos to be this high and mightly lawyer. hehe! This sure gives ME the doubts!!!

Don't you love how Fieger always brings up what terrible representation Geragoes gave Wynona Ryder? He promised receipts to the jury, but once again was all talk.

Jackie said that SP's vehicles kept getting confiscated by the police, so she told him to use her name. Yeah sure.

RB,
I don't see where anyone posted this info, so I will report to you.
Catherine Crier had a tidbit today from a phone conversation where Jackie tells Scott to "deny, deny, deny." She also said his sister Susan wants an answer from him, and he needed to "deny, deny, deny". I was half way listening when it started, and I think the tape is Jan 17 (not sure if she meant deny about Amber, Laci or what).
I hope to heck the prosecution uses this in their rebuttal.

I realize that Scott's mother is no rocket scientist, but to withdraw "accidentally" thousands of dollars from his account and then hand him the cash instead of depositing it back into his account? And why even have this much cash on hand? The words liar and moron come to mind.
My thoughts on this is that Jackie has been padding Scotts wallet for years..Never made to take responsibility. Also with this much money in a Jackie.Scott. Laci account why did Laci have to hock jewelery for Scott to take Amber out on town?
