Imes is concerned there has been no check with the 12 deliberating jurors throughout the course of the more than 5 month case. Smith said he was convinced that no attempt was made on the day the alternates were approached. #mcstay #chasemerritt

Looks crushed. His defense attorney looked close to tears.

Yes, he looks "crushed" because IMO, the PT did not prove he was guilty BARD.

And his defense attorney should be in tears because he did a great job.

JMO I know I am still the "lone wolf" here regarding this case and I know many do not like my opinions or posts regarding this case. But there is nothing that will ever change my opinion on this case until the TRUTH comes out - which TRUTH, I doubt, will ever come out.

Oh well ... I will catch up here later ... it's lunchtime and cocktail time in New Orleans ... LOL !

MOO !!!

#McStay - Imes says in the affidavits provided to the court, no one mention if any of the sitting 12 jurors have been approached.

#McStay - The state estimates they'll take 3 days for the penalty phase, defense 2-3 days.

do these news outlets only have one camera? they just cut off the Judge speaking about jury tampering

 

[MrsPC]

So in the Penalty phase can Merritt testify or say anything?

If it wasn't for the guy on a motorcycle, he would have gotten away with it.

ok, so if there are press conferences.... any idea where to watch them??? anyone??? LOL

It’s not the shock of a guilty verdict, as much as it is a huge weight lifted off their shoulders.

Their biggest fear would have been this vile mass murderer, being a free man.

They were acutely aware of the stakes here.

Chase Meritt will never pray on another innocent victim, something he did his entire life.

Exactly and this is so personally as this was a family friend that had been let into that home and he killed them in the worse way imaginable.

Joey would of given Chase the shirt off his back and this was Joeys reward for showing the criminal kindness. He gets his entire family wiped out in front of him. The guilt he mist of felt in them final moments that he had let that evil man into his home and play with kids.

Big respect to the prosecution team, and especially MR who brought it home

Thank goodness for that guy!

I wish I could read lips and know what he was saying!

I’m so glad to hear the jury got this one right ... what a relief that they came up guilty on all counts, with special circumstances. I was beyond frustrated thst HLN dropped the ball on this one, but I was able to hear the verdict on one of the links someone posted above, in spite of the web page reloading too often ... grrrrr! California is useless when it comes to the death penalty ... why bother, if you’re not actually going to execute? I’m glad I don’t live there anymore, for many reasons.

The justice system worked! The jury rendered the just verdict absolutely!

It was almost kind of surreal watching PURE EVIL emanating off his murdering grim reaper ghost face! I almost saw a replay of the murders in his eyes!

Smith will talk to the jurors out of an abundance of caution, on Tuesday. Prosecution estimates 3 days for its penalty phase case; defense two days. And court in recess until Tuesday. McStay family members are hugging prosecutors. #mcstay #chasemerritt

Hello,

Yes, some fountains ... but not what it was made out to be, IMO. Fountains are a "luxury item" ... and this was a business that was supposed to be "booming" during a downturn in the economy? I don't think so ... But ... there were "other" types of businesses booming during that downturn time ... but it wasn't fountains.

MOO and MOO !

Sorry, but that is old news that was proven to be wrong. This was a viable fountain business. Companies bought a lot of them for their businesses. We saw the fountains and we saw the receipts for the supplies and the receipts for the welders and the shipping.

This was a fountain business and was doing great, in spite of Chase embezzling like the crook that he is.

ok, the mod in the chat said if there are press conferences, they will carry them on the same feed....
