Is Rodriguez there????
OMG you made me smile so big!
Is Rodriguez there????
SmartHe is not going to testify
I have a feeling that it was the standard question, where the judge asks Merritt about testifying... and they took a short recess to discuss. Now both sides have rested. And hopefully we will get the cams back for closings!
I listened to the testimony, I wasn't confused at all. He had an opinion before Feb 5th. He came and gave testimony in the 402 hearing and gave his opinion, which was he could not accept or reject Merritt's truck. After the 5th, he did more calculations because he found a file that was mis-labelled (it was the FARO scan of the neighborhood) On Feb 15th, IIRC, he informed Imes that his opinion had changed and at some point requested that they do a live reprojection since they had the truck and the camera was still on the Mitchley house, he was denied that request (there was stuff mentioned in a hearing that we did not get to hear on Monday I believe) At some point, after Liscio testified, he contacted the defense to request or tell them to do the live reprojection. (I still do not know if the defense could actually do this). It sounds like he didn't really want to give the defense all of his findings (Rudin says McGee was very angry at him haha), and they ended up subpoenaing him. The link I provided clearly states what his opinion is and it's not that he has no opinion, it's that with the available data he would reject Merritt's truck but he is open to being over ruled if they (anyone he says, him, Liscio ,the FBI) will do the "crown jewel" of tests and do a live reprojection, although he doesn't see how it's possible to be the truck, it would be more definitive.
Imes did try to confuse the jury though, which Rudin called him out on it and McGee cleared it up on re-direct. Rudin had sent an email at 3am, McGee didn't even discuss the exhibits with Rudin before he testified yesterday (which I thought was pretty brave of McGee LOL) Then further confusion ... IMO.. with a tweet yesterday that had the wrong info with what they were showing on the screen.
The video I linked is only a few minutes long, anyone that wants to hear what his bottom line is, it's there and you don't have to listen to all of the testimony.
This trial has gone far beyond it’s expected time frame with so many starts & stops , the jury must be fed up by now.I listened to the testimony, I wasn't confused at all.

Are her Tweets accurate?That's the only tweet that's come out of court so far, don't know.
So what happened to all of the DT's "witnesses"?
No clue because everyone that is there sucks LOL Time wise, I'm thinking they must have called someone this morning? Court was to start at 10am, it's now 11:15 am, so must have been a witness this morning?So actually Knowles DID testify in order? Or did the defense call someone else this morning?
Both tweeters tweeted the same thing.Are her Tweets accurate?
