I knew PT would jump on that! Showing concern for someone goes against JH being psychotic, doesn't it?

Ormans the man! Having him read his notes before he asks him questions.

Does the DT have a CLUE what they are intro ducing? this is a complete slam on their defense.

DT is hurting JH in my opinion. DT has not given the Jury anything not even reasonable doubt

- New Witness
Defense calls Aurora County Sheriff's Office Detective Craig Clark. He is also on the bomb squad.

Det. Clark responded to the theater and operated the robot used to search the gunman's car.

All it takes is 1 Juror that's swayed by all this "November incident" so the DT is grabbing at ANY straw to keep the "he's insane" defense in that 1 Jurors mind.

Okay, maybe a dumb question but why does each of the attorneys ask for "just a moment" and then immediately announce no more questions?

Det. Clark said another officer took the keys found on the roof of the car and inserted it into the trunk lock. Clark used the robot to turn the key. The key may have been bent.

Defense calls Aurora Police Department CSI Angela Benford to the stand.

IMHO they sank another with the last witness, so now we are up to 6 Scuttled Battleships

Ah, the famous "bent key" defense turns the case around!

Yes, we know what a URL is! Thank goodness I am not on this jury, I'd be screaming right now.

This is a decoy now to get the jury distracted from prosecution's cross of defense witnesses!

This is getting so bizzare that I might just bail

by NT8 6/30/2015 10:37:11 PM

@cp- I agree with you. But even if he had mental illness, how will DT connect that with not knowing right from wrong at time of shooting. Clearly he knew right from wrong on a daily basis or else he would have been institutionalized or incarcerated sooner. What happened on that day?? will we ever get there???

Did the witness just corrected Spengler about a question that Spengler should have asked?

Tamara Brady has been the top DT lawyer. She has been very prepared and attentive.

ms Spengler isn't making herself clear. Rather spacey.

Who would like King as his/her lawyer? I think David Beller is a superior defense lawyer.
