However, there is a specific jury instruction given right before deliberations that tells jurors that they MAY consider prior felony convictions while determining credibility, character of the defendant.
The State has a strong case and they are rolling right along now. IF they had stood by and fought for them to come in, HHJP would have allowed it. Cheney Mason knows that, too. There is case law backing it up from the FL Supreme Court.
The problem is: Casey would have a very, very, very good argument on appeal for Ineffective Counsel. They is a strong chance any conviction could be overturned and she would be granted another trial. Do they really want to have to try this monster of a case twice? Not unless they feel they absolutley must. Just not worth it.

Got it. Thanks for your response...

How could ICA claim "incompetency of counsel" when CM is on the DT?

But we are supposed to believe this far-fetched accidental drowning theory.
By talking about how much she lies, don't they realize that it is impossible to believe that ICA is telling the truth this ONE TIME? Oh, and coincidentally, the one time she is telling the truth is to save her own skin???
Is their defense "My client is a lying, stealing, unemployed, high school dropout who can't name the father of her child and therefore is too stupid to kill her daughter"?

I believe Scott Peterson's lawyer actually called his client a 14Karet A-hole, a liar and a cheat, but claimed he wasn't a killer. You know how well that worked for Scott

ICA's little house on the prairie blouse today is quite a contrast to yesterday's body shaper, no?

No matter what the Prosecution does in presenting their case, the one thing I don't see how JB gets around is this: He admits Casey lies. About everything. She invents imaginary people. Fake jobs. Details about trips she didn't take. Even gives imaginary people illnesses and weddings.
So why would the jury believe she's telling the truth about sexual abuse by her Dad and brother?

JB needs to be careful here...this jury, I think, probably likes AH a good deal.

Oh man...he's insinuating AH is a lush! 
That's relevant, but ICA's prior felony's aren't? Are you freakin' kidding me?!

Bill S saying DCS will do cross, and that is most likely because of JB's near disaster yesterday!

Did anyone else notice while the jury was leaving the court room that HHJP
was reading a note and then showed the note to the lawyers?

Can someone else take the helm for the prosecution? FG seems distracted and rattled, imo.

What is going on with Lee? He is a hugely important witness and the questioning doesn't seem like it's going well to me. Someone tell me what is going on?

My opinion about LA testimony is that he is trying to be very careful with his answers. He does not want to give the DT any reason to come back at him for something he says on the stand. I think LA is broken and knows in his heart what happened to his niece but still does not want Casey to be given the death penalty.
I really think someone else should be questioning LA I don't think this prosecutor is doing such a good job. DT is full of objections this morning. I wonder if that is their new game plan object to everything.
