Brauchler is brilliant with the last objection from DT he got the chance to tell the juror that only the judge can instruct them on the law. Brilliant !

Brauchler's representing these victims beautifully. Love it.

@PT - do you know how many of the attorneys have children of their own?

by Lynn 8/6/2015 8:37:27 PM
@notfordp as several have said before, no one had to participate who didn't want to. his job is to be the voice of the people.

Da plays the Quinonez 911 call again. You can hear the gunshots

by Phil Tenser 8/6/2015 8:38:39 PM
@PT - was he showing photos of the crime off camera?

by Lynn 8/6/2015 8:38:41 PM
So many "new" commenters today... :)

by BluesB 8/6/2015 8:38:42 PM
@notfordp - yes. I do believe the prosecution is for justice. I too work for and with attorneys, and possess a J.D. No, I do not agree that this is their personal agenda. Wow.

It wasn't an "assault rifle"

Thanks Phil

by Greg Pettis 8/6/2015 8:38:46 PM
Still brings a lump in my throat, even at this stage in this trial I hope the jurors feel the same.

Someone needs to coach Brady about her sitting position, so obviously coiled for action.

by Sophia 8/6/2015 8:39:01 PM
I can still hear the gun going off in my head on that 911 call... as well as all the screaming... that was soooooo scary to listen to there can't imagine it live!!!

by LG 8/6/2015 8:39:03 PM
Mr. Brauchler is absolutely riveting again...

Laid out so logically, reminding us of details: planning, ammo - but also the victims.

by Mr.D. 8/6/2015 8:39:37 PM
Brauchler is my hero!

"The weight of a man's life is in my hands right now, until I hand it over to you," Brady says. She says she will not apologize for being emotional and passionate.

He is not the voice of the people. He is interested in his own career. And Orman is not any better. And don't even get me started on Teesch Maguire.

by notfordp 8/6/2015 8:42:00 PM
wow that was powerful

by Tia 8/6/2015 8:42:00 PM
I love that Brauchler blesses people who sneeze, without missing a step!

by AM 8/6/2015 8:42:04 PM
Including the bench conference, Brauchler used about 38 minutes

by Phil Tenser 8/6/2015 8:42:27 PM
Brady asks jurors what is in their heart and mind

Brachler spoke only about 23 minutes.
