biga75 said:I was fairly nervous during the initial part of the prosecution's closing arguments. But after reading the twits as she has gone further into it, I don't feel as nervous. The state does not have much of a case and she keeps :dead: that it's "not a he said, she said" case. Unforutnately she keepings bringing up what each side has said.
Their case is just too weak for a verdict beyond a reasonalbe doubt that he knowingly had sex without her consent. :twocents:
This is not good closing material.Boylan: "If he'd broken her arm, we would agree with that evidence. We see psychological evidence differently, but we shouldn't."

I have a feeling this will not end well. Dark days ahead.

This is a very legitimate concern....

So did he pin her arms with his hands leaving bruises (cross of JJ by Durek) or hold her down with his forearm across her chest leaving the red mark seen the next day by the nurse (jane, nurse testimony, boylans closing)? How did he go about removing janes clothing while doing either of the above if Jane is holding her legs together, yet somehow attempting to push alleged "rapist" (whom she asked if he had a condom per her testimony and his) off using her knees.biga75 said:SouthDakotaGrizzly said:So, during her closing argument Boylan starts off by saying "this isn't he said, she said" but then later, while discussing what constitutes sex without consent, she says that the two stories differ on whether or not consent was given. Nice contradiction there.
Edit: And, no, I'm not Fwen Glorio, who just tweeted the same observation.

B: she told him no clearly, sternly #JohnsonTrial he said, turn over or I'll make you
The prosectuion can't even keep their closing arguments in a straight line.
Good lord folks, cheer up. This woman is just saying the same things that the defense tore apart during the trial. Remember, the book runaway jury was just that, a book. All people aren't stupid and corrupt. No way they find him guilty.GRZFTBL said:Raider said:If this were any place but Missoula, MT, I would agree with you guys.

So.. what you are implying is that NO girl EVER has been forcibly raped because what you describe above cannot possibly happen.... :thumb:
