Me too.

yes but watch JA go and rip him apart 

Oooo what's this with jury member number 4??? 

Are you on wftv, Pengy? My link isn't working, so I'm on WESH.

I'm missing Bill's analysis.

OK - I've just got in - What's going on??????

And hi everyone 

Hi Soozy, we've had boring forensic witnesses who testified that their tests had produced negative results.

dont make me fly over there and have words with you juror 4

rushed off to make more tea!  JA will no doubt have some comments on this

hi soozy, you've missed  nothing of any interest today.

What's going on with juror 4?

Juror 4????? what have I missed?

Big hat no cattle is Bill's analysis of the defence so far 

Juror no 4 - in her 30s.  African-American lady.  Reluctant to judge people - that's for God to do and makes lots of notes during defence testimony but folds arms during State cross. They're all on note watch with her apparently and studied closely body language. State didn't want her on apparently because of her 'Only God can judge' statement.  

Bill thinks she'll take her oath seriously and doesn't think her personality will be strong enough to sway people.  But she could hang the jury!  If she's closed off to the State - it could mean that a lesser sentence is handed down i.e. life without parole.

Thanks Pengy, I missed that.

Judge Perry overruled the State's objection of having juror No. 4 - he was afraid her exclusion could be seen as race-related as she's African-American although the State made it clear it was on her statement of it being God's job to judge not anyone else 

surely if a juror voices their views against the death penalty while being considered for a death penalty case they should not be allowed on it.  They should all go in open minded and fair.

I agree - her statement only God can judge would be a definite no no for me 

Grrrrr Milo's got his babble ball out and it's making a racket 

Only God can Judge?What the hell is she doing on a jury - it's her duty to make a judgement isn't it?

She ought to have been excluded.

Yes i agree

JP seemed to think if she was excluded it was because of her race not what she thinks   Bill hopes she'll prove us all wrong and do the right thing 

What a boring guy! Proper geek!

but by his own admission, his equipment wasn't as good as Dr Vass' 

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm - wonder what that was all about?

What was the point of the last witness?

What was the point of Ms Mears being on the stand???   Has he opened the door for the State to bring in the gatorade bottle?

That witness was short and sweet!

here it comes the gatorade bottle and the syringe 

Ahhh State didn't include them so Baez can't use it 

bill is scratching his head wondering why the defence would want the bottle and syringe in because it gives weight to the State's belief of Casey using chloroform??? He's wondering why the State didn't use it!

So am I.

chloroform in the bottle supports the State's case though!!!

Dont think they are going to bring up the bottle and syringe  , they are not in evidence apparently

I know, so why haven't the state used it?

S'okay Pengy, I'm not questioning you, just wondering out loud.

Another sidebar.

I knew that - I was pondering aloud as well cos it's so strange 

I've had to switch to WESH cos my WFTV link has gone down   I keep both open but mute the WESH one usually 

Gimme back Bill 

Bill's back 

Does anyone elses WFTV screening keep cutting to a Sims ad?

Did that witness just say slight chloroform on doll ?? Sorry phone rang
