JJ Trial

[RobGriz]

15 minutes left for defense closing arguments. The state gets final word. #JohnsonTrial

How long does the state get?

Holy crap add'l 45min!

defense doesn't get extra? That's f'd up.

However the jury decides, will this be Dateline's story the week the football season opens?

P: Why is she doing this? The why is a rhetorical question. It is not evidence. #johnsontrial
==============================
Wow, the Missoulian is ARGUIING with Paoli's closing ....

I don't think they are....I would assume that's Paoli's actual statement.

 

[RobGriz]

Here is a nightmare scenario. The jury may do a very simple analysis:

1. JJ never testified that she consented to sex (my understanding is that he testified that she didn't object).

2. "Jane" testified she said no.

Therefor he is guilty.

I can't say how likely this scenario is, but the jury could look at it this way.

I see what you're saying, but he did say she did not say no. Now I don't know what the "legal definition" of consent is but is almost sounds like you have to ask "Would you like to have sex and can I get it in writing?" or you could end up in court.

The bad thing is this case shows us that is exactly how it is!!!

Last night I told my wife we were not progressing any farther without a notorized contract and video documentation of the event!!! :shock:

:lol:

How does the state have so much time when they took 2 weeks and the defense took a week?

I can almost say I am glad I am not 20 again and back at the U, chasing girls around...too damn scary.

You could be right.

 

[RobGriz]

Wow...
Prosecution objects to facts testified to under oath being brought up in closing...sustained
Paoli objects to being called a liar...Overruled

Thompson: if you repeat something that isn't true enough times, you will believe it #johnsontrial

oh the irony...here we go w/ 45 min of Thompson

Solid closing arguments by both sides.

Solid closing arguments by both sides.

From the Twitter feed, it kind of seemed to me that Paoli's closing was kind of week

 

[EverettGriz]

90% of the people in a KVGO poll believes JJ is innocent.

I find it weird that in an "innocent until proven guilty" culture, the accused don't get the last word. The guilty first crowd gets two shots at this thing.

 

[Rats of Butte]

Judge denies Paoli's request to approach. I am getting so frustrated just reading these.

Shocker - Paoli's objection is overruled :roll:

Judge Roy Bean presiding.

 

[EverettGriz]

I find it fascinating how many younger women on the Twitter feed openly support a not-guilty verdict. I would have expected that to lean much the other direction.

they see through Doe's BS....

 

[EverettGriz]

And also how many on twitter feel that the judge is clearly biased toward the procesecution. Man, it's amazing how many people are commenting on that.
