Hope another thread is OK with everyone. The last thread, from last year, got to 250 pages and was closed, I think. This should be the VERY LAST THREAD.
Jury selection starts Monday, 9/29.
The trial will be recorded, but not aired until after the penalty phase verdict is in, or if there is no verdict reached, the judge sentences her. Meanwhile, reporters can tweet and report on the trial.
I think I heard that the penalty phase should take about 5 weeks, but from what we know of JA's trial, and actually getting to the start of this phase again, the defense are pros at delays, so we'll see. I think there were more delays and sidebars during the original 5 months than actual testimony.
I hope for the sake of Travis Alexander's family this is finally the end. Although as long as JA can speak through other people from prison, it will never end. Even if she is given the death penalty, until/unless it's carried out, JA will do everything in her power to punish that poor family.
Tonight starting at 7 PM with Jane Valez-Mitchell, there will be special reports about JA and the crime. Any volunteers to watch HLN and report back? Anyone? Should we assign people to watch each show, spread the pain out? J/K. I might record them (so I can FF!) to see if there's anything new about this phase or if it's just a rehash of the crime and the murderer. If there's anything "new" I'll let you know. All donations for my pain and suffering graciously accepted. But if anyone else DOES watch, please feel free to fill us in!
UR, get off that mower and start serving up pretty drinks! We'll need them!
