However, an additional 2 more jurors were dismissed, so on March 28 we will need 3 more for a total of 110 jurors for April 3.

So today March 28 shall be last day for jury selection. Only need 3 more jurors today.

I just rewatched the video where LS has her back to the camera. It’s a reminder of how diabolical this woman is. Standing there spinning her lies knowing what she had done. Makes my blood boil.

Anyone who has been listening to jury selection daily is familiar with the process as noted below.

Additionally, without going into further details one juror was granted dismissal during yesterday’s (Day 5) jury selection because of “autopsy photos are pretty bad.”

Jury Duty Laws in Colorado - Juror Selection, Qualifications, and Dress Code

www.juryduty101.com

The Juror Selection Process, or "Voir Dire"

Just because you qualify to be a juror and are summoned for jury selection, doesn't mean that you will be selected to be a juror on a case. The process of "Voir Dire", the actual act of jury selection, is how judges, defense attorneys, and prosecutors actually choose the individuals who will sit on the juries for upcoming criminal and civil cases.

During the voir dire process, each lawyer will ask the pool of potential jurors a series of questions about their background, beliefs, prejudices, or relationships with any party to the case. While the goal is to select an impartial jury to render a verdict, each attorney will also seek to exclude any jurors who seem to be more likely to vote against their client's interests. While jury candidates are instructed to be open and truthful when answering such questions, the juror selection process is also where most individuals who don't wish to serve on a trial find a way to be excused from further juror duties.

I forgot there’s a female DDA on the team and when she started speaking I thought a potential Juror was reading from a prepared statement!
( I’m trying to multitask and listen lol)
Sure wish we had a reporter live-tweeter there today!

Urban Dictionary: Make a sissy

To take a piss. To take a leak. To urinate From the series "Dead Like Me" the character Rube played by Mandy Patinkin uses the euphamism as a character trait.

So no potential jurors picked in the morning? Or did the prosecutor & defense just give a mini opening statements? They only need 3 more according to my total.
TIA!

Judge Werner has a process in place and not changing it today to select a handful of jurors. However, unlike previous days, the court dismissed many this morning for not being able to hear others in the courtroom. There was no hesitation! MOO

Wish I could do it Justice, but I’ll try.
Every day Judge makes the same consistent analogy to the Jurors. I believe he’s explaining how the State must prove all elements of their charges for the crimes.
He likens it to making a Denver omelette— if you don’t add all the elements including onions and green peppers— then you don’t end up with a Denver omelette- instead what you have is a ham and cheese omelette.

Or something like that.
Now I’m hungry!

Oh - that sounds good for my breakfast tomorrow! And thank you for the explanation about the Denver omelette comment above!

 

[Curious Me]

Judge is concerned with one juror's oxygen tank (or portable compressor charge) running out. They had mentioned a 5 hr. limit, so Judge wanted to know if they were doing okay.

Yes, I'm listening again today. Sound is clearer too.​
