Two of the most interesting things today were not testimony but planning stuff.

1. The jury will tour the MH. To me that means the DA will claim that the MH is the murder scene.

2. The will be a day long secret hearing next Monday.
A. Directed verdict? Dismissal?
B. Major new evidence?

A. Directed verdict? Dismissal?

The defense will file motion for a DV, otherwise it would be an indication of incompent counsel. Even the most rabid "Westerfield did it" crowd will not deny that Feldman is competent (Greg W exectped).

The court will deny motion for directed verdict.

After this point, Feldman will beat the shi+ out of the SDPD, and he might pull a rabbit out of his hat.

My bet (in order):

1. acquital.
2. hung jury.
3. guilty, reverse on appeal (inadaquate discovery).
