Good morning! I think a break in the middle of the cross can only be a good thing for GB. More time to plan what's to come!

emma, yes, you missed some of the best cross i've seen by GB yesterday. I had to watch it twice, it was so entertaining
by Loz7/8/2015 2:41:50 PM
Hope the good Doc remembers to bring her notes showing when exactly she reviewed the notebook.....lol

I get both the witness's and the attorney's frustrations. I understand there are few yes/no questions in science, but Dr. Gur is a smart woman (understatement), she had to have known what kind of questioning she would face in a trial context.
I would expect Judge Samour to step in a little earlier if the questioning struggle proceeds today as it did yesterday.

This should be good today!

Anyone else think that Dr Gur could be considered hostile?

To those that missed yesterday's testimony, AC was fired up when he did cross-examination to Dr. Gru. He was really fired up. It reminds me of Dr. Woodcock's cross testimony.
by EZ7/8/2015 2:51:15 PM
Good Morning Everyone! Ready to see what AC brings in today!! I hope everyone has a great day!

Good morning, everybody. Been trying to watch yesterday's footage, but only got up to the lunch break so far. What did I miss?
by jward127/8/2015 2:51:24 PM
Good Morning! Whew, was yesterday brutal. I hope GB can wake me up - the weather here in the DenverMetro Area is gloomy and cool and better for sleeping in.
by DocJ7/8/2015 2:51:31 PM
I'm going to buckle my seat belt for the rest of AC's cross

Good morning everyone. Looking forward to a good cross examination with a little less fireworks than yesterday.
by MyraJ7/8/2015 2:51:47 PM
Yes or No lol
by Tjq7/8/2015 2:51:58 PM
The cross almost felt like a movie script. It was compelling to watch. I didn't even think about the fact that you could watch it again. I'll have to do that. I had things I had to do during it so I was in and out.
