Just another lying defense attorney. Attorneys are not alloyed to suborn perjury, but they have taken this to mean that they can say anything in defense of their clients that they are not positive is false. And many of them fail to meet even this standard.
It takes a LONG TIME to bleed to death from cuts and contusions like he had. The guy very likely COULD have lived 24 hours or more after the accident. Therefore, what was going on during that time? It sure wasn't this Mallard b**tch trying to get help for him.
Second, who cares if she had sex afterward or played pinochle? That's irrelevant. What we know she DIDN'T do was help the guy. What she DID was leave him there to die. All this other merde is just her attorney playing the cynical PR game with the news media hoping to influence potential jurors that "it wasn't as bad as you read," trying to impeach the "buzz" surrounding this thing.
The FACT is the guy died IN HER GARAGE. He probably died slowly. Her "friends" dumped the body. Months later she "giggled" as she mentioned to someone that "I hit this white guy."
The woman will be up for capital murder, never you fear.
No Lieutenant Paul, the crime occurred the second she left the scene of the accident, and she left the accident scene with the victim attached to her windshield. Throw in leaving him in the garage to die and then trying to cover it up.
This is starting to smell bad.
.........
Ms. Mallard's mother, Dorothy, testified in the hearing today that her daughter had been a Girl Scout who volunteered to help retarded children.
Girl Scout and "A student" wrongly attacked by the establishment and betrayed by a faithless friend....
She is the true victim here....
Isn't that how it always is? It's always "two drinks". I have a feeling, though, that the informant isn't as reliable as we think she is. I don't mean to say she's lying, but I believe the defense will shred her credibility on the witness stand. Just being in the same group of friends as the killer puts her into the "pathetic loser" category.
Somehow this claim of the informant sounds all too believable.
I wonder why the NY Times sees fit to inform us of the informant's name, but does not see fit to tell us that, according to that informant, Ms. Mallard said, "I hit this white guy," and giggled. Isn't that fit to print?
At least the article tells us where this alleged human being was working. I had been wondering. Those poor old people at those nursing homes!
OH, so the poor suffering soul only was alive for one day--that makes it soooo much better!
