No it's the ongoing joke. Like the back and forth.

I know. Agreed. I just heard a lot of the Adelson trial while cooking my meal for the week yesterday, doing the fun cat pan job ec. and the BUMP is a big thing/code in it. I didn't even pay a lot f attention to that case through the years but was up on it ENOUGH. Nothing else much was on and people seem to almost be avoiding Delphi with shows, etc. and so I put that on. Mostly Adelson's testimony but then landed on something that played Wendy's and Katie's as well... Again hardly aware of who all are, well I knew the players somewhat but never seen them etc. He is such a PUKE. And liar. CROSS EXAM was GOOD but do feel she could have went longer and harder but regardless for a smart jury, hopefully it is in the bag but as always ya never know, there may be one and in every trial that's what we hear only one for a hung jury...

Anyhow I am off topic yet again lol. It was to be about the bump and the fight...

8 screens LOL.

There is nothing we can do about the judge or the DA so we just have to forget about it now. It is currently in the hands of the El Paso county coroner I guess so we will have to just wait and see.

Yes, Iris - I did a double take when I saw that name twice. It is an old fashioned name and we bought a horse many years ago now and she was young - only a three year old and she was called Iris. The guy gave us a price and let us have her to try for a few months and she was good, then we noticed her putting on weight. Our vet examined her and she was pregnant. We went back to our guy and told him. He just said do you still want her for the same price or I can take her back? Of course we kept her. She had a beautiful filly foal and we called her Lily. We still have Lily who is retired now and over 25 years old. Sometimes we call her Bogof(f). Buy One Get One Free.

It seems to me noone wants to do any work since Covid. I cannot get a plumber or electrician for love nor money. They keep promising to come then don't. I am getting fed up with it.

Love the horse story and that would be one Iris I'd actually like lol. And Lily. It just gets shortened to BOGO here and all know it means what you said. Have you ever heard of YOYO with regard to like nightly dinner? I like that one. Like Tuesdays dinner plan is a YOYO night? I MISS cooking and talking FOOD. Darn it.

I can't understand what about COVID makes it so people don't have to go back to work? Did all win the lottery while COVID was going on or what? I can tell you if it is anything like here, they are all SWAMPED with work and some can't get help. I had to find a guy last year with water pressure problem that could have cost me a fortune just to find out and even if I had a fortune they were ALL BUSY and just had more work than they can handle. My family name actually ended up helping me out as a very swamped man knew a cousin of mine and asked if he was my cousin, I said yes and he MADE time and still took a lot of finagling and I was at wit's end. But in talking with him, he can't GET HELP or employees to take on more work than they are already swamped with. Many of them also are doing big jobs of complete new homes or businesses, etc. and don't have time for the small stuff when they can only take on so much they go with the big ones, probably more regular customers and distance and such can matter too. What is it you need them for? Hope you find a solution.

Back on topic, well the judge is gone and hopefully for good imo. I don't see Stanley being involved even if it did end up in Chaffee. Witnesses are going to stay the same as is the evidence other than all new from this point on, etc. Unfortunately we are stuck with Iris/the defense. I can tell ya the witnesses need to get wise to her games. I watch some things that I doubt i'd get you to watch and sadly i don't always watch them all either as they go for hours but i've seen enough of them through the years that I am aware of a lot of things you just aren't going to see in the news. What she does during questioning for one. I don't have it in me to go into it. And then on top of it you had a judge who couldn't see through sh*t and is not UP on things, what the DNA meant and Iris' lies for one and his failure and lack of knowledge on tech. He also personally went after a YTer. Seriously. Brought him into court and then when the transcript was tried to be obtained, there wasn't one and then when they produced what they could, it was not correct. Lots more. I'm tired. Worked til 9:30 and have to be back at 8 a.m. tomorrow for a ten plus hour day. Way too early to have to go back and for that long. Anyhow, just saying there's a lot and it wouldn't break my heart if it ends up in El Paso but I am down on the CO system enough I have to PRAY it is any better... But we can hope. I think that area sees a LOT more murder than Chaffee and I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing when it comes to the Court... Of course it is bad there is a lot of murder so I did not mean it that way...

Never heard of YOYO. What is that?

I need plumbers for finishing off barn renovations I have been doing for years. My old plumber got himself a regular job as he had a young family and wanted a regular salary coming in. My electrician is just very busy and keeps promising to come but then doesn't.

Not sure what will happen with this case as it is all hanging on the autopsy now and what can be determined as to COD.

 

[Tresir]

This is probably nothing to do with this case but am posting below. First vid is of what this guy found about 500 yards from where Suzanne's remains were found and the second vid is an interview with him.

Sorry but the links wouldn't work. Will try again. These should work now.

YOYO means "you're on your own" every man for themselves. Meaning if you re having a YOYO night for dinner your hub, children, and thine self, etc. feed themselves and pick for self and one may choose a bowl of cereal, another leftover and another grilled cheese, etc.. or be ambitious and grill oneself a steak. It means also it is mom's night off from cooking basically, you plan or announce a YOYO night. I think in general it is meant to be simple easy foods but still just every man for self.

Hoping you find your plumber and electrician. I have a daughter who just found out the hourly rate and expense of a plumber. They did get one right away but of course at full cost. I'm guessing from what you say you are looking for one who does it "on the side" and at a bit lower expense?

I don't now that this case all hangs on the autopsy...? The original case is not gone first of all. Second of all they have a body now and unless they find natural causes (all but nearly impossible for her to bury self) it now is proof she did not likely run away, LIKELY NOT, she was found close to home, etc.). Add to that we don't know what was found with her or what she was dressed in if anything and there is more than just autopsy. I was going to post a video for you the other night and challenge you to watch at least some of it. There are some things wrong h ere that rosecution and witnesses have to get right. There are a couple of guys who have charted all info and times and find that LE has like one on the stand that knows THIS part and then one on the stand that knows that part, but they seemingly haven't come together or knows what the other knows or put the info together, they just each know their part. Like one may know truck telematics, one know cell phone info and another know Barry's purported timeline etc.

One example is they couldn't have been at Mystic Pizza when Barry said (think that was name of pizza place?) or that that is true AT ALL as the bobcat was moving at the same time. Just one example. They believe SM was killed Friday and they don't think SM was the one talking with Jeff. They talk of something they call "grunts" and different than how SM normally communicated by text, there are a series of Barry like "grunts", short answers and texts etc. These two aren't knew, they have put a LOT of work into this case. They do however feel and "know" BM to be guilty but they worry with the case, because Iris is tripping LE up with these things when they don't realize this stuff. She also plants thoughts or questions in the way many defense attys do. I think you are a print, document and chart person maybe with time and they have done a lot that way.

I myself even before all their work back when wondered when SM was killed and it easily could have been before Saturday. I have never lit on Friday or Saturday and at a time I could even make earlier than that in the week work. Many wondered. But prosecution has lit on a time and theory which is often done when charging and planning to take case to trial. Whoever eventually charges (which county and so forth) would be wise to listen to these guys and do their own or take in their charting, etc. I am simplifying the stuff they have by giving one example of the pizza thing said by BARRY not being true butt here is a ton more.

I don't know that they are right on all they think but they definitely are on a lot of times and things, etc. and perhaps Barry's "grunts". LE DOES need to correlate all the info and see for instance the pizza and bobcat stuff. I think there is more to that too in that SM said to Jeff she now had time to talk Barry was gone, same timing...

Problem is every show they do is at least two hours long if not more generally. I don't get time but it is interesting and I have watched them on and off for the years of this now. But they do have charts etc. they have developed, something else I've never had time for.

None of it however makes BM innocent, they believe he is 100 fold guilty. But YES prosecution and LE witnesses, etc. NEED to polish and put together some of this and each know the FULL picture of what each of them knokws.

Pretty sure I saw this some time ago and saw another channel or two's reaction to it. I don't think I shared it, can't recall, may have, because while a bit interesting, not sure if meaningful or not... Maybe, maybe not. Never seen the guy before ever but that's not odd as new come on cases over time. Not sure if this is the one but think it is, it was out not long after the ind of her body and I did listen to it/him. I think he also talked of fthe camper near there, etc if I recall.

Well have a listen if you get time. He also mentions a bit of cloth with blood on it. I also think the cops went back to search a second time and wondered if this was why? I can't find the info about them going back now.

I said I did watch it, pretty positive. Memory not fresh but yeah the cloth with supposed blood and gun was a ways away if I recall. In that general area but not like next to her. Not dismissing it, found it VERY interesting but don't know him, etc. Entirely new to the case and I saw it/him not long after her body was found. It WAS interesting but nothing has come from it officially. YET anyhow. I also kept in mind and still do that they call this place the "boneyard". Which to me sounds like a body dumping ground. So I found it interesting but with caution. Hopefully it helps solve SM's or someone's case...

 

[GrandmaBear]

He is new I mean.

 

[GrandmaBear]

AS of that time. And BM does have some missing gun if memory serves but not sure the one known of is that one, not that he couldn't have others unknown. The man certainly wan't any stickler to laws. I also remember this, the guy I believe kept camera on, etc. so no question of chain of evidence as to at least when he was looking, etc. And he seemed a "real type" but who knows. There are people even big time retired LE who have negatively affected this case big time. One is one Olenna recently posted in Delph, the Interview Room. You could not pay me enough to watch his channel. Another was his former YT partner, Mike of Profiling Evil who I do still watch on OCCASION and he is the one who had DA Linda Stanley on and we all know she came under fire for that. Furthermore they appeared to be helping and offering this great tracking and assistance for Andy Moorman etc. in his search for his sister and I didn't like a lot of what was going on with it from the start. There is more BUT I am jjust saying THESE are retired big time LE who did DAMAGE. So I don't just take some newcomer either and take him t his word, like the guy here. Interestiing? Yes. Relevant ? Who knows.

I could go on and on about the other with time including how they launched on YT and including a hyped call with BM for weeks on end that was NOTHING. And also how he slipped something in right at the end of a show with Vinnie Politan as to that hype on his new channel on YT after they split.

I am sidetracking big time.

Back to the point, I don't know what I think of this guy but hey they have the cloth and have the gun right? It's some time later since he was there and I saw it back when and so far we have nothing further on it. I gues we will have to wait and see. A lot of people have used this case though. Not saying that he is, no idea. I think he has only done one or two videso in all this time so apparently he means well and did find a couple of things that may or may not relate.

Identified by dental records.

Extensive search done Friday near where Morphew remains were found: What we know

The Friday afternoon release from CBI was scant on other information, but Denver7’s crew on the ground gathered some exclusive details about the search.

www.denver7.com

This is where CBI are coming back and doing this second search, which I think could be because of what that guy found.

 

[Tresir]

It's strange but this case, the Delphi case and the Murdaugh case have had problems with judges or problems with them standing down. Is it because they are high profile cases or does this happen a lot? Maybe it is just because they are long running cases.

IDK. It does seem to be happening alot. You would see it occasionally. But not like this. So many cases. It seems now more than ever they find technicalities, Loopholes. It's in favor of the defendant. Their precious rights. The victims were taken away by the defendant!!! I don't remember when it's been in favor of the victim/Victims, Their families.

I agree with you about the toll it takes on families, but it's necessary. Even with all of things that have to be done to convict someone, we still get it wrong far too much.

I disagree. I will definitely agree that in the past it has. And there are people that have been incarcerated for decades that are not guilty. There was no concrete evidence to convict, There's none to exonerate. One is too many. But now, All the evidence that can be gathered, Even circumstantial, Is really indisputable. So now you get, Oh, I don't remember, I blacked out. I'm mentally ill. Any excuse to get out of taking responsibility. And the appeals are ridiculous!!! 15, 20 years these families suffer through beyond what they already have is completely unacceptable!!!! Where some parents, Other family members die before they see justice because of THEM being protected! THAT IS WRONG!!!

I don't know that that's right. Newman imo was an awesome judge in Murdaugh and nothing imo was caused by him and considering what he had to deal with, I'd say he is/was even exemplary and he even removed himself correctly from post trial things. What was wrong with him? Of course Alex and team don't like him as he isn't on their list of buddies/payroll right?

Colorado is its own beast. Their system and state well I lack adequate words...I first became aware of it in the Berreth/Frazee case and since then just wow and Scott Reisch helped also with realizing the politics and lack of "sunshine" in their courts, the moves towards secrecy, sealing and more. I myself have seen what I believe to b some of the connections and problems...

Delphi is its own beast... And IN.

Not included in your remark is Boyce in Daybell. I cannot figure how he is not blamed by almost a single soul for the cases having to be severed and the DP having to be taken off the table for Lori and which probably will be for Chad as well. All I can figure is he's a member of the Good Ol' Boys Club.

There are many we never hear of or that don't get the same attention. I think in Bigsby the chief judge recused every judge in his county and himself. Huh? In Delphi the male judge went running and now the female judge is being attacked.

How about our case? What kind of judge presides over and has a guitly verdict by jury but gives six years for a murder? Also early on lowered his bond to almost nothing and let him remain free throughout the years until conviction. Also imposed ALMOST no restrictions on that freedome except being alone with children which he VIOLATED and nothing was done about.

I don't know that any can really be compared and more examples can be given BUT I will say that in some of these politiics are trumpingi justice. I will also say the Good Old Boys Club is alive and well in many places and a number of judges in place would never have been initially elected by the public, they are appointed to fill out a term in a crafty game the gen pop doesn't even know about.
BUT that is all this or that and different reasons and none of that answers your question. Politics for sure. But I don't think the cases your are mentioning can be compared really.

If anything is going on, I see politics and I also see a trend of defense attorneys new games which imo is also politics. And again politics are trumping justice. Not in all cases. YET.

That's another post for another time. The ones you mention I see no ties or similarities. I felt Newman outstanding and fair and the defense problem again is he is not on Alex's buddy list/paryoll. THIS case? Oh my. And Colorado itself?? Uhm.... And THEN we have Delphi... It would take a day I don't have...

I do get what you are saying as recently there seems to be issue and a trend... I'd first and foremost suspect and look at politics and agendas and the good ol' boys clubs...

But then each case and state you mention here are different and have their own issues too... I don't think it is a one size fits all answer...

 

[GrandmaBear]

I agree with you about the toll it takes on families, but it's necessary. Even with all of things that have to be done to convict someone, we still get it wrong far too much.

Wrongfully convicted is the rarity imo. Especially THESE days. What is FAR more common is rightfully convicted IF it even goes to trial and then a soft sentence and early release. Of a repeat offender over and over and over and over. A SOFT system. AND that is without the tons of cases we never even hear of where deals are made.

As cynical as I've had to turn out to be, I still don't think most people or cops are inherently evil. And I sure don't think especially these days wrongful convictions are the norm, if anything it leans the other way. I get how you likely feel, even one is too many but you seem to see it in EVERY SINGLE case? Jurors generally get it right and I get totally what some never realize or think of, that a judge can bar or allow evidence and info to turn a jury and so can LE manufacture evidence BUT i do not think it the norm by a LONG shot PLUS the person they frame (and a bunch framing also takes a lot and i doubt the norm) has to be possible and around to begin with. I know you are going to mention WM3 or whatever.

The Karen Read thing, well that's debatable too. Questions? Sure. But also having to explain too much away.. I DO think it is overcharged. And that a bunch of fricking cops and girlfriends, etc. that can get snockered, drive and party and arrest others for doing the same goes on all over this country and maddens all of us. And she was. And he was. Just like in LISK the rumors of the swinging cop who probably arrested or talked down on others with such a lifestyle and what was he doing off duty and possibly on duty just like Burke?

I am wandering a bit but your post doesn't really totally hit the point/thread either but I do not think most juries get it wrong. ESPECIALLY tHESE days. The opposite goes on in that at least one wants CSI kind of DNA, video, etc.

In Allen/Delphi NO ONE made him make up a story of BEING there that day. He WAS by his own admission. Problem NUMERO UNO of many.

 

[GrandmaBear]

I agree with you about the toll it takes on families, but it's necessary. Even with all of things that have to be done to convict someone, we still get it wrong far too much.

I am curious as to how many wrong versus how many right? Not that one wrong is okay but give me the stats and back up facts on them?

 

[Mel70]

Now it's easier to convict without a body. A crime scene is discovered. The DNA comes back as the victim's. There is a volume of blood at the scene, That the person could not have survived is one example I have seen. Alot I have seen now is there is so much circumstantial evidence. There is no doubt that person is guilty. But they refuse to divulge where the victim's body is. Their last bit of control. And because of the system. They know they can play that card for a plea deal. I'll tell you if....No deals. Contrary to popular belief. Not even close to most plea deals are agreed to among the families. Some definitely are. Because they are so tired and mentally beat to he77 to get it over with from waiting for a ridiculous, Unacceptable amount of time.

 

[Cousin Dupree]

I disagree. I will definitely agree that in the past it has. And there are people that have been incarcerated for decades that are not guilty.

Police departments frame people regularly. The people in Canton just voted for an independent audit of the police department because of the Karen Read case. I don't trust prosecutors blindly anymore. In the case I was a juror on there was a dirty cop. His testimony didn't change the verdict, but what he testified to pushed the boundaries of believability.

He was a short guy. I'd guess about 5'7". Three officers testified that they led the arrest. They were all going through one doorway. The two lead detectives were, about 6'2" give or take. They testified that they saw one of the defendants put a rock of crack into a dryer. The third cop also in the 6' range said he couldn't see because he was behind the other two. The 5'7"ish cop, behind the other three, said he saw the defendant put the rock of crack into the dryer. It would have been impossible for him to have seen that. It didn't make any difference because the two lead cops testified to what they saw. However, IMO, he perjured himself.

If they think you're guilty, you're guilty, almost all the time, ignoring evidence that would point to someone else. We saw it in the Charles Merritt case and those are the only one's we know about. The fact that almost everyone has a camera in their hands when they leave the house is exposing police corruption. The only reason we're finding out about it is because it's on video. This has been going on for a long, long time. Ever since our country was founded. George Floyd and Ahmaud Arbery would never have found justice without video. Ahmaud Arbery's case would have been total hearsay and easily brushed under the carpet.

There are a load of people in Boston who have to have their convictions overturned because one lab technician wasn't even doing the tests on the evidence.
