Haggling Over Evidence in Peterson Trial

He certainly had the Rochas fooled. And all of his and Laci's friends seemed to have bought his line of, er, fertilizer.

But Amber seemed to have wised up pretty quickly (a woman scorned?).

And the cops were on to him from the first words out his mouth. They didn't bother sending dogs to the park because they didn't believe him. They tracked him, his calls, his cars, his computers (and I bet his money) from the get-go. They tapped his FATHER'S phone thinking he was in on it too!

And now the whole country (world?) will be watching as he is tripped up on lie after lie after lie. Is beating up someone's ego cruel and unusual punishment????

Woo HOOO!!! Thanks pinz. I had a sneaking suspicion that it was going to make it in when the Judge "officially" qualified the dog handler as an "expert"!!

[Canadian Outrage]

Exactly Jackie, that's why he was so cocky!! This poor excuse for a human being, REALLY thought he had everyone fooled. All the while, half the country, had him figured out!! Unless they get brain dead Jurors,he's TOAST!

[Canadian Outrage]

NO it's not cruel and unusual!! In fact, this Judge is very wise. He clearly has been impressed by the evidence and frankly I am OVER jOYED that the Jurors and perhaps little SNOTT may have to look at the autopsy photo's!! WHAT he did needs to be seen for what it is - RAW, BRUTALITY. Laci Peterson and her baby Connor DESERVE Justice. No way did they deserve to be subjected to the demons controlling this man.

:-)

I forgot the /sarcasm.

I agree that this judge is wise, and calm, and unaffected by Geragos' sideshow.

I'm sick that we're not going to get to see ONE SECOND of film of this trial!

[Jackie-O]

You and the rest of us sister! I wonder if we'll at least get artist sketches?

[pinz-n-needlez]

It would be nice if they could find one who used be art director for the Perry Mason show!

Get it, for those Perry Mason moments???

I bet ole Ms. Peterson is going to be dropping more than her oxygen tank before this thing is over.

[Canadian Outrage]

Maybe we could lend Jackolyn a MATCH!!

[pinz-n-needlez]

Hee hee.

We could send an elderly homeless woman to deliver it to her in the bathroom. :-D

Pinz

[Canadian Outrage]

Ha ha. Good idea!!

[Canadian Outrage]

I have to be honest, I'm having a hard time trying to get my work done. I'm so happy about these rulings. Legal work (the kind I do ) seems rather boring at the moment. However, I must get it done. aarrrrrggghhh!!

[pinz-n-needlez]

I'm writing documentation on copies I made of medieval knitted socks, I'll trade you. :-)

"Wiretap evidence to be admitted at trial."

Yes!!!!! This is priceless....Scott can testify without ever getting on the stand. His words will set him free!!! (Ha Ha)

[drjulie]

"And now the whole country (world?) will be watching as he is tripped up on lie after lie after lie."

I hope the prosecutors can craft a narrative using the tapes, what was occurring, what he told the police and others in person, etc. One example....he's on television telling everyone how much he loves Laci and on the same day he's calling Amber and professing undying love. See the television interview, hear the tape...

[Canadian Outrage]

Isn't this wonderful Julie?!! The Jury will get to see and hear a REAL Sociopath "in action"!! I believe that the Prosecution has lived and breathed this case from the get go and they could probably tell their story very well. Your so right, Scott will unfortunately for him, being testifying!!

[Canadian Outrage]

I'll see y'all when I get home. Sheesh, I got to leave this horroffice before 7pm!! Things are looking up! LOL BBS

The police may be lying when they say they didn't listen to the great dialogue that was recorded btw this ass and his ass of a lawyer. I personally don't think they are lying.

Whichever it is, it appears that the JUDGE listened to the captured conversation btw Scott and his lawyer, and found nothing in it which would have helped the prosecution anyway. That's good.

The idiot, since he had retained McAllister early on, should have been personally haunting his lawyer's office, for a variety of reasons, two of which are: he could then have been sure of talking to the lawyer in an un-bugged environment, and he would have had less time to do stupid things like drive to the Bay and look out over the water, thus appearing guilty as sin.

Just another idiot who paid good money to his lawyer (or had his mommy pay him), and then didn't take the advice he'd paid for.

I don't feel too caught up with some of Geragos' crap, b/c I've seen it before--have seen much of it during investigations of various Clinton shenanigans.

A guy like Geragos has to have a big ego. That is the only thing which can keep him from shuffling his feet in shame when he proposes some of the most asinine arguments ever presented in a court.

[Devil_Anse]

He sure DID fool everyone! Remember, Image is everything in his world--actual substance means nothing.

[Devil_Anse]

I don't think Amber was ever as taken up with Scott's bull**** as he wanted her to be. She'd been around the block before, and it's a good thing for her!
