Legal analyst on wftv is pointing out that Bozo mentioned in his opening statement that Caylee died in a drowning accident in the family backyard, but now he is trying to discredit evidence from Deputy Forgey that the dog reacted to the smell of a corpse in the family's backyard. Why?

Consciousness of guilt .....................I keep seeing that but in all honesty I really don't know what it means.
Should they have pleaded mental health issues? Obviously the US are more familiar with these terms as in the first place it's a US case and secondly the US citizens get to see live trials all the time (unlike us in the UK)
So Roxan ............I'de be really grateful if you could clarify .conciousness of guilt.
Legal definition:
Evidentiary rules allow a prosecutor to introduce testimony that tends to show that the defendants actions prove he knew he was guilty (at least of something). This is sometimes referred to as âconsciousness of guiltâ. For example, such evidence may include actions the defendant took to âcover upâ his alleged crime. Flight, when unexplained, may indicate consciousness of guilt if the facts and the circumstances support it. A person's false statements as to (his/her) whereabouts at the time of the offense may tend to show a consciousness of guilt.
BTW I am a proud import not an American!
Thank you Roxan - 
Not sure I'm any the wiser though.
I would have got back to you sooner - daughter visited with her BF to show off his new car.
AM I BOVVERED? LOOK AT MY FACE ........................NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
Husband has returned from a trip and bless his heart he's excusing me looking at this trial - and ..........there was perfume too

I think he may have to re think quite a lot. Not least 'Why the hell did I put myself up for this when I really don't have a clue?'

Legal analyst is calling it the schizophrenia of the defence theories.

He thought it was a good way to raise his profile.
Don't think he realised his heightened profile would be as an idiot.

hi, glad you can make sense of it ! x
George and Cindy in court today
Hi Skylark, I'm here atm but not sure for how long. The electrician is doing some work on the main fusebox, so I might suddenly disappear.
We haven't seen much of prosecutor Frank George recently.
He seems to be taking a back seat in the proceedings now.
Hi Yogi xx Ok x
Afternoon gaga jury 
I trust you had a good night and have adhered to all the previous admonitions
i liked the Judge saying more or less that if witnesses testimonies are going to be continually called to question, there isnt much point to this

Hi Soozy.
Hi Soozy x
I hope this dog handler isnt on so long as yesterdays one ..........
Looks like another long day
I think they are going to go through the same stuff with this officer, as they did with Officer Forgey yesterday. It could take a while.

Surely this really isn't necessary - even if Baez continues to object he knows he'll be overruled - I would think all this talk of extensive training can only strengthen the case for the prosecution?
Actually as far as strengthening the case goes - I forgot that the jury aren't present - I bet they're getting peed off at being kept waiting.

The Judge at the beginning more or less warned him to get on with it, so hopefully it wont go on all day, but knowing Bozo ...............he will try to discredit this dog too

I don't understand why the jury are not present to hear the dogs training record.
I can't believe they called a cadaver dog "Bones".

I think this is simply to justify the handler and dog being used as credible/expert witness.
