I watched a little bit when they were discussing the pool camera and the camera immediately panned in and down and focused on her feet in chains and one leg crossed over the other with the elevated foot going up and down sort of impatiently. Then it panned to her papers in front of her then panned back to the judge speaking and courtroom view almost like it was saying "we'll focus on what we want" LOL.
Yes, I saw that too! And they also hit the desk although I couldn't see what papers said but I'm not sure someone else couldn't or enhance it to do so. While I do get a kick out of such, like her feet, I do NOT want live access to any trial forbidden due to the antics of Court TV. I don't think it was them though, I believe a court camera was present? Not sure BUT Court TV had an atty there and he was saying how I believe their camera is small[?] and that they have the band with to send to I think like 300 other news stations, etc.? Or was it 30, can't recall. He also seemed to make a point of saying that if the judge wants a delay those stations need to abide by it too as they can't control it going to them and them not delaying it... Personally I think he was trying to hint that they didn't screw up in some of these other trials but that it was someone else that did. That is b.s. though because a juror was shown recently and that had to come from the original camera. Actually two jurors but one could be CLEARLY seen. Then in some other one it was paperwork so again that had to be Court TV, and I also heard that it was. They need to KNOCK it off but I'm not sure who did this at this hearing...?
Has she asked not to wear orange during the trial? I haven't heard such. She generally didn't in ID.
Have we ever had a defendant we almost all without fail love to hate and mock? I can't stand her and feel she deserves every moment of it... Personally I think that hair is some "fall" and that hers is brown and broken off underneath from the glimpses of it from the back of her head.
I'm not through it all yet, not because it's long or hard to watch, I simply have other things I'm finishing too and I dance between them and it's just not been my week. Then recaps started coming out of the Dateline thing, etc. and a few things on other cases I want to keep up with. Kohberger, Read and so on.
I think I mentioned above she started to get a bit "pis*y" with the judge at one point that I did see. Also she turned around to the gallery and gave what I'd say was a triumphant look or smile at someone. It was quick and my guess is perhaps her mom or Summer or a news org?? Not sure.
I know Nate was going to be there and when the judge asked, after Court TV,, if other news people were there and had anything they wanted to says, I thought maybe he would speak up but never saw him and no one spoke...
Lori cited case law and had the advisory atty with her and she didn't overdo it I guess or go too lengthy... The advising atty is clearly there for her and doesn't ignore her but it's not like when defendants have attys they are all chummy with and all put on acts almost choreographed, I can think of a case I'd point out but think I'll leave that. The atty does her job and does talk to her when wanted but she stays pretty serious and stays out of it otherwise. I mean Lori is representing herself... Only one P there, a female. For me, it's pretty clear the judge and P know the law better than Lori and I'd say they are making sure things are not "unfair" or a pro SE defendant looks ganged up on. I'll give them credit for that actually but the P atty didn't have to make a huge argument to anything but she did so easily and when necessary. Again, I haven't finished it yet.
She pointed out quite clearly as I said she can't have it both ways (Lori), no wanting to use statements of dead people and one she was convicted of killing (Tylee) to her benefit (my words/paraphrasing). Judge also easily asked and said their utterances (Alex and Tylee) were not excited utterances, etc. if it was at 10 a.m. or after...
I've encountered the excited utterance thing in a courtroom/case and so I actually know of this... It is one of the exceptions to the hearsay rule. Not ALL hearsay is inadmissible as many believe. Lori wants things they said brought IN. In Kohberger it was also recently used and argued where the P wants statements etc. in in the 911 call because they are impressions in the moment or excited utterances...
Lori seems to want what Alex and Tylee said later in day when interviewed by LE in but not the early things... Of course she does, that's when she'd told them what to say, etc. and had it all gotten together. There was some blip, I forget, where something was said about her leaving, perhaps the P said it, again I forget. I have watched pieces of this over a few days, and she had to dance real quick once because she was NOT there, they had left allegedly and per cams at Walgreen's and so on...
I need to go finish it, again it's not that long, I just haven't yet. It's a good glimpse of how she will be at trial and this hearing was nothing for her in comparison to how that will be. I saw her temper flare imo and her impatience just as the foot tapping showed as y ou said... And this was just a short hearing. There was a glimpse imo of her feeling superior to the judge and trying to stifle her natural urge to show him she's more important. I suspect over a long trial more of that will be seen... I mean after all she's the favorite of Jesus and she is not mortal but superior to all us mortals, the judge, the P... I suppose it's hard for her when she has to play by mortal rules and in their world lol and they don't see her specialness...
If I get to it, I'll link a video I found that's short and he puts a fun twist in things when recapping something, it covers the Dateline thing which sounds like a pretty big disappointment and nothing but mostly a recap of the case and haven't we seen such a million and one times in this one... Meaning all the cases, history of her and Chad and their murders, attempted murders and so forth... It's all been done to death.
Keith went around and did all his interviews and things to drum the interest but honestly I don't think he was very happy with it but doing the required professional thing as the network I'm sure expects done... He blames her without really trying to show it's just another of the same old with her crazy in it...
And of course, she throws Tylee under the bus again...
He said in one interview he felt like a pang of guilt and he should but then he went on to say you're not going to give up the chance to interview her, etc. (paraphrasing).
I think most are done with her and most were not happy about this "special". I'm sick of her and hoping she goes away after this trial. Oh another thing covered at hearing was juror selection and finding enough, etc. We know the pool can get poisoned each time something else AIRS. Lori had a few things to say about jury selection and her "last trial" and jury selection...
Long post but have wanted for a few days to catch up here with thoughts, the hearing, etc. before something else comes up and there's new news so trying to state all I recall thinking and seeing recently that I felt mattered. Imo anyhow.
