Hearing may be cut short today. Details to follow.
KTVU - Says Geragos has another matter to attend to. The LA trial has a hung jury. Today McAllister will finish his cross of the police officer(?). I think that's what they said.

[RGSpincich]

KTVU - Yep. Going to wrap up the cross (maybe some redirect?)of the first police officer on the scene and then call it a day. Geragos is going to LA to tend to his other trial, "with Scott's blessing", he says.

Trial nears impasse as jury splits

Jurors deciding the fate of two men accused of murder are instructed to deliberate further.

By Darleene Barrientos, News-Press


LOS ANGELES — After reaching a decision on one count but declaring itself split on several others, the jury deliberating the fate of two men accused of killing a Hoover High School student were sent back to the jury room Monday to continue working toward a verdict.

Jurors pondering the case of 21-year-old Karen Terteryan and 18-year-old Rafael Gevorgyan said they were confused by the wording of the law in several of the counts against the two defendants. The jury told Judge Michael M. Johnson on Monday that it had reached a unanimous verdict on one count, but was deadlocked 6-6 on several of the remaining counts against the defendants.

That Geragos, such an important man.

I am now hearing the "leak" that the DA's office has SP's fingerprints on some duct tape that was used to hold a missing flyer of Laci. They are saying that it is "similar" to duct tape found at the body recovery site.

Is this not a violation of the gag order? This is not anything that I have heard discussed so far and it just adds to the media hype of nothing.

Thanks, RB!

Do either you or Hergus have the picture of the big yellow missing sign that was in the lawn at the Covena house?

Hergus, I searched your site and I know it's there somewhere...I just can't find it and would love to take another look at that particular sign.

CLLOOUUDDAA!! I just sat down to eat lunch for Godsake! Nothing nauseates me more than Wacky's mug!! ;o)

"William Shields, a biology professor and DNA expert from SUNY Syracuse, told a judge that hair found in pliers in Scott's boat did not necessarily come from Laci Peterson's head and does not necessarily place the victim on his boat the day of the murder."

Bawaahaaaaaaa! I just heard on radio news that under cross exam, this guy admitted he gets 60% of his income from testifying and he rarely testifies for the prosecution.

If I was a juror I would believe this guy, yes I would. NOT!

[Jackie-O]

The type of guy who has had smoke blown up his keester by his adoring parents...

Agree! Sociopathic-narcissist is loving every minute of the attention he is getting. He has a look on his face when he enters the courtroom like he is sooo confident his lawyers will get him off, and he's sittin' pretty!

"Do either you or Hergus have the picture of the big yellow missing sign that was in the lawn at the Covena house?"

Here's one. It doesn' show much.

From what I remember reading last night about the Duct Tape with Scotts finger prints on it, it was from a missing person poster taped to a pole downtown or there abouts.

It wasn't from this Yellow Missing Person Poster.

Here are a few pics. You can see the duct tape holding the sign.

I would agree with the gag order aspect. Alex.

Can't help but wonder if the tape found near the bodies might not have a print or two one them.

If the tape were contiguous with the sign hanging tape, I could see them matching up adhesive, film, cloth and perhaps even fiber breaks/content. I'm a spinner, and could see matching fiber content, twist angles, and breaks down to the molecular level.

Poor Scotty, too dumb by half to pull this off. (Fingers crossed, lol)

I just read on the CTV site that he said yesterday that he is getting $4000. for his work from the Petersons. Nice chunk of change! Wonder which Peterson is footing the bill? And I read somewhere yesterday that Lee and Wecht refused to testify on the DNA, that they HAD to go with this guy. (scraping the bottom of the barrel for "expert testimony?)

[Velveeta]

That's it! Thank you, Clouda! I knew that I remembered silver duct tape on that sign.

I saw the footage last night about SP and some woman putting up a sign on a pole. That was a clear tape (like packing tape) and not what I consider duct tape.

When I heard the news reports of duct tape, it immediately conjurs ups the heavy sticky silver tape.

Is clear plastic tape ever referred to as duct tape?

[Jackie-O]

That last pic of him holding out the flier is pathetic! He knew damn well where the hell they were..quite the actor. Makes me sick...

[Spunky]

Geeeeez! Sandylapper if I had of found this picture a long time ago I would have known that, that part of the house with the 3 windows is fenced off. A courtyard to the front door.

Now I can see Scott opening the gate and going in.

BLUSH! BLUSH! BLUSH! :-)

[Velveeta]

Not only that! The guy has never extracted mtDNA in a lab!

"I'm not a DNA expert, I just play one for the defense"

$$$$Cha Ching$$$$

[clouda]

It can get worse. How about Scott dressed as Jackie.
