What say the jury? That is really the most important question of all questions.
The TH's opinions and the general publics opinions of this trial are totally irrelevant to the decision that will be made by the jurors. Those decisions made by the jurors will be made by analyzing the evidence and testimony that has been presented at trial. We can look at what has been presented at trial and guess what it may mean to the jurors, but we can not make the decisions for them.
The jurors have been given a mountain of evidence from both sides to try to digest. They have not yet been allowed to deliberate with the other jurors. When they do get the chance to deliberate, they must attempt to all agree on a verdict of guilty or not guilty. In this case, I do not believe this will be an easy task for them.
Which witnesses have been credible to them? What evidence has made the biggest impressions on the jurors? Do all the objections and sidebars make the jurors think the dt is trying to get in evidence that they shouldn't be allowed to get in, or do they think the prosecution is trying to keep out evidence that may prove innocence? Do the jurors think JB is hopeless as a lawyer and they feel sorry for KC that she has a poor lawyer for her defense? Do the jurors think JA's outbursts are passion for Caylee, or rudeness towards the court? Do the jurors think the forensics the pt has presented is proof beyond a reasonable doubt of murder, or has the dt's cross examinations and witnesses raised reasonable doubt about the forensics? Will the jurors place any weight on the fact that the grieving grandparents of the victim are also the parents of the defendant and a guilty verdict will cause them to now lose not only their granddaughter, but their daughter as well? Were the 31 days celebration of freedom obtained from murdering her child, or were those 31 days denial of the tragedy of her daughter drowning and her father abusing her for years? We, the general public, and the TH's do not know what the jurors think. We can only speculate.
The media has turned this case into a circus, as they did with cases such as OJ Simpson, and Jonbenet Ramsey. Almost lost in this circus like atmosphere is the fact that a lovely child has tragically lost her life. So we soon must ask what say the jury? If the jury acquits, and Caylee had died from an accidental drowning, our justice system worked. If however KC murdered Caylee, an acquital would be a travesty of justice. If the jury finds KC guilty of premeditated murder, and Caylee actually died from an accidental drowning, this would be a travesty of justice. If however KC murdered Caylee then our justice system worked, and justice will have been served.
As always, my entire post is my opinion only.
anything recent about the jury reactions?
