This is the Babcock murder trial discussion thread.

A few general reminders about the trial:

Any testimony that might remain under Publication Ban, and/or any courtroom discussion that takes place when the jury is not present, is strictly off-limits.

Only testimony that is published through MSM reporting (newspaper articles, tweets, tv) is allowed. Provide a source link, and keep discussion focused on testimony as it becomes public knowledge.

The magnificent principle of “innocent until proven guilty” is for the court room … it is not required that the general public / Websleuths members adhere to that principle. Members are allowed to discuss, speculate, theorize, and judge according to opinions they develop from following the specifics of the case.

A few general reminders from Websleuths TOS aka The Rules.

At all times, remain VICTIM FRIENDLY. No bashing or passing judgment on the victim or family.

There is ZERO TOLERANCE for snarky or disrespectful posts. Don’t expect an explanation … you will find your post has simply disappeared, or that you can no longer post.

There is to be NO name calling or name variations, not even of the accused.

BICKERING between members is not allowed. If you disagree, that's fine, say so and move past the post. If a post is offensive, alert it and let the Mods review it. If you respond to the post, both the offensive post AND yours will be removed and may result in other consequences.

Alert on a post and move on without discussing it, and don't question the decisions of our Mods/Admin or Owner. Also do not expect personalized responses with explanations about a particular decision.

Do not abuse the WS Alert feature. Abuse includes, but is not limited to:
• Overuse of the alert system
• Repeatedly alerting on the same poster
• Demanding a specific outcome
• Alerting on the same post more than once

If you have any questions, use the Alert feature or send a PM and we will be happy to assist.

Good morning everyone, saddled in for Day 2.. Praying for strength for the Babcock family!
 
I wonder if during this trial we will hear from Big Iisho my gut tells me he knows more than what was given in texts during the last trial

Did he not plead guilty to selling DM 3 guns? Hopefully the timeline for those sales are presented in this trial.

Not quite as busy in the courtroom today as Dellen #Millard gets set to cross examine the former boyfriend of Laura Babcock.

Lisa Hepfner‏ @HefCHCHNews
Trial shd start with #Millard's cross-exam of Shawn Lerner; Laura #Babcock's ex who was suspicious that her last 8 calls went to Millard.

Lisa Hepfner‏ @HefCHCHNews
Yesterday we heard #Millard cross-examine Laura Babcock's father. Clayton #Babcock never got angry, only emotional about his loss.

Ann Brocklehurst‏ @AnnB03
Smich's mother is in court today. No sign of Millard's mother. Friends of his were here yesterday

Good morning from courtroom 2-7 where day two of the Laura Babcock murder trial is about to begin.

Hope DM had a sleepless night, worrying about the cross-exam of SL this morning!

Day 2 of the Laura Babcock murder trial has begun. Her former boyfriend Shawn Lerner will now be cross-examined by the defence. Millard 1st.

BBM

Friends of DM? He has friends? Or is that tweet poorly worded and she meant Smich (who I would be surprised to learn has friends too)?
 
I would also like to know if CN's phone ever pinged from towers near the Barn between July 4th and July 23rd. The time frame when it is assumed LB's body was stored.

I know she conveniently lost her phone, but ping records for it may have still been available.

Ha, I thought the same thing. Uh, @AnnB03 covers more of that on @TrialLive but I guess I can clarify that yes, it was DM not MS who had friends in court yesterday.

Court is scheduled to begin everyday at 10 a.m. but some legal arguments are happening. Once the jury arrives, we can begin tweeting.

Here we go again... DM using any excuse in the book to delay...

Legal arguments right now. Trial will resume shortly with Shawn Lerner.

It's again standing room only. Laura Babcock's parents sit in front row. Dad Clayton was 1st witness on the stand, questioned by Millard.

Courtroom has filled up. A dozen or so people standing. #Millard to cross examine Shawn Lerner shortly.
