Next week begins the defense case!
This is OT:
I know a lot of you watched the Brad Cooper trial. I didn't but I am watching the 1st day of testimony now. There's a woman sitting in front of the witness (but sideways to him) that is holding a round thing over her mouth. Can anyone clue me in on what that is? TIA!
Someone asked 'what door did Meredith exit the house?' Meredith exited through the front door, with CY & Mr. G.

Thanks. Did investigators rule out possible transfer of MY's blood on the doorknob, by someone in the house during or after the discovery? I'm sure they probably did, but I haven't come across that info yet. Thx.
As an afterthought to the N.C. weather, it's usually quite mild here, but the nights can be cold. Today I walked my dogs in capri pants, a tee shirt, barefoot in my birkie's. If anything, towards the end of my walk I was a bit warm, too warm. The sun down here can be warm even if the temp. is in the sixties. But tonight we have a strong northwest wind, it's chilly. Tomorrow is predicted to be in the low to mid fifties. Today my grandsons wore their shorts and tee shirts to school. I don't know what you call them, but the long shorts, that come down to the boys knees. It's common here to wear shorts during the winter months. There are enough warm days to prohibit one 'putting ones summer clothes away for the winter.' When we first moved here from Wisconsin, it took me a season to realize one didn't change out winter & summer clothes. And if you recall, jason had packed all his 'short pants' for his trip.
Bringing this over from other thread 2/24, Otto you said "Not really ... Pat said that she got a pullover out of his luggage for Jason to wear because he was in shock and was cold ... but ... is that the same one that was foundin storage? Who knows."
I have listen to her testimony ... no where does PY state the above!!
Listen here around the 10:00 mark http://www.wral.com/specialreports/michelleyoung/video/9754898/#/vid9754898 and listen here around the 32:20 mark where BH is questioning PY http://www.wral.com/specialreports/michelleyoung/video/9758533/#/vid9758533
Then here is the link for the creme colored shirt/sweater JY had on when he checked in at the HI.
http://www.wral.com/specialreports/michelleyoung/image_gallery/9726666/ look at pictures 1 thru 20 and compare to the shirt/sweater Taft shows around the 12:00 mark http://www.wral.com/specialreports/michelleyoung/video/10757980/#/vid10757980
The bottom line here is we know he had the shirt/sweater on when he arrives at MF's house but the point of the matter is PY stated nothing was took out of JY's suitcase.
Listen around the 27:00 mark about what MF describes JY hd on when he arrives at her house.

Odd that some of you are arguing as to why JY needed to replace shoes so quickly. This is completely dependent on individual circumstances. I have shoes that are 5 years old in my closet that look great that I wear occasionally. The shoes I wear most often are a pair of Dockers that can be worn for business or casual. They're comfortable so I wear them with jeans, with slacks, etc. After about 6 months or so of wear, I typically stop wearing for business, at that point, they start to become noticeably worn. I continue to wear with jeans/casual for a few months but look to replace soon after.
Exactly ... I don't think I would have shoes for everyday use and still be wearing them one and a half years later.

I still think its subjective based on a multitude of factors. I've been married to my husband over 3 years and he has bought one new pair of shoes in that time.I think a lot of the differing opinions may come from women. I (female) have many shoes going back 5 years. I don't think I've ever "worn out" a shoe - except for running shoes; they are replaced a couple times a year. My husband however, goes through shoes like crazy - it's bizarre how he ruins them. His expensive dress shoes can go a year but that's it. All other shoes become yard-work shoes before year end.
