Thank You Dear. I didn't get to see all of her testimony. I did see her point it to the side (towards the jury) and she put her right hand on the grip, then switched to the left, while telling the Jury that she was doing it with the left hand so THEY COULD SEE BETTER. I could not tell if she pointed it directly at the Jury. I think only the people in the courtroom could tell if that was true. The camera views didn't give us much to go on, but the gun was pointed in their general direction, and the only 'safety' for the Jurors and everyone else in the courtroom would be the alleged LACK of a cartridge inserted into the magazine.
I say 'alleged' because there have been many, many incidents where a gun that was 'empty' killed someone.

"..., and the only 'safety' for the Jurors and everyone else in the courtroom would be the alleged LACK of a cartridge inserted into the magazine."You say alleged lack which means; "Represented as existing or as being as described but not so proved; supposed."
It was proved that the gun was safe to handle as they had a deputy come and check it all again after the red cable was removed before her demonstration.

Didn't she check for whether it was loaded at the beginning and at the second time she showed it.
I was thinking she checked the chamber (or whatever they are called) before she gave testimony on it. She kind of snickered towards the state side of aisle like she made sure to check it because she made sure it was empty. Kind of like a joke between herself and someone else that she was doing the right thing by checking for being loaded.
It was kind of cute.
