Naked photos of 11-year-old girl snatched in deadly home invasion are shown to jury

 


They really need to check JK's daughter to see if she's been molested.

Komisarjevsky Defense Thwarted In Bid For Mistrial

Quote
The defense attorney for Joshua Komisarjevsky unsuccessfully moved for a mistrial Thursday morning, arguing that a walk-out by Dr. William Petit Jr. and members of his family in court Wednesday was prejudicial to his client.

hmm..I believe that the def attys have said that he didn't rape her.  Guess this proves that they were lied to by their client.  Big surprise.

This only proves that JK was much smarter than Hayes.  He knew to clean himself of DNA evidence.

Connecticut Petit Home Invasion Judge Denies Mistrial
September 29, 2011

The judge presiding over a triple homicide case in Connecticut denied today the alleged killer's request for a mistrial after the victims' family caused a commotion while exiting the courtroom en masse Wednesday.

In full view of jurors, the Petit family filed out of the court just before Connecticut's chief medical examiner, Dr. H. Wayne Carver II, was slated to deliver graphic testimony regarding the autopsy of 11-year-old Michaela Petit.
 ::snipping2::
Attorneys for defendant Joshua Komisarjevsky, 31, immediately asked Judge Jon C. Blue for a mistrial after the family walkout. Defense attorney Jeremiah Donovan called the move a "stunt" and said it was highly prejudicial to his client.

Blue denied the motion this morning and said courtroom 6A, like all courtrooms, is a public space where people are free to come and go. This was not the first time Petit family members, including William Petit, have left the courtroom en masse. On Monday, before another medical examiner testified to the manner in which Hayley died, at least 10 family members left the courtroom as well.

With the efforts to declare a mistrial out of the way, Dr. Susan Williams, a Connecticut associate medical examiner, took the stand this morning to discuss her autopsy findings on the body of Hawke-Petit. This time, the Petit family had already left the courtroom.

Medical examiner details girl’s death as Komisarjevsky emotionless

 ::snipping2::
While his lawyers can argue semantics all they want, '" OK yes he was there, but he personally didn't kill anyone, his accomplice brought the crimes to the level of murder..." there is no getting around their client's obvious lack of contrition, conscience, nor even a trace of humanity whilst viewing the results of crimes that he had personal involvement with. This all speaks of severe anti-social personality disorder, a personality disorder whose main features are a highly manipulative and deceptive nature, a parasitical existence, and an utter lack of conscience. One can hear all three plainly within the tapes of Komisarjevsky's long detailed statements to Cheshire Police detectives.

NEW HAVEN—


Johanna Petit Chapman had the grim task of identifying the bodies of her nieces Hayley and Michaela after the 2007 deadly Cheshire home invasion.

So when she learned Thursday that Joshua Komisarjevsky's defense lawyer had described her family's decision to leave court during testimony on how Michaela was sexually assaulted and died as a "stunt," Petit Chapman bristled.

"I identified Hayley and Michaela's bodies. I didn't feel I could sit through the grisly details of Michaela's autopsy," she said. "I've seen the monster's handiwork firsthand. I don't need to see the grisly details of the autopsy. Clearly, it wasn't a stunt."

I don't think I could have stayed in the courtroom either.     A "stunt"? The "stunt" was the defense attorney trying for a mistrial under those circumstances imo.

I don't know how those defense attys sleep at night.  How do their wives lie in bed with those men?  I'd lose all respect for them as spouses.

It amazes me how the Connecticut court system seems to drag this case out.  I can't remember a case that spent so little time each day in session.  This trial will last for weeks.

We've heard that clothing from the victims was bleached.  Does gas do that?

In Michaela Petit's bedroom, flames climbed the walls; accelerant was splashed on her body on bed; smoke pressed down from ceiling.

Now, I have to ask, what would be the reason for Michaela being the only one to have gas poured directly on her unless it was to cover DNA evidence?

Those poor girls smelled the gas and knew they were being left to die.  I'd hoped that they passed from the smoke before the flames ever reached them.  I'm thinking that really wasn't the case.

It's sad, but  there can also be lot of pain from smoke inhalation.  It's not like a person is just overcome with smoke and they're gone.

Home Invasion Jury Sees Evidence of Girls Tied Up
Sep 27, 2011
 ::snipping2::
On Monday, a medical examiner testified that Hayley Petit likely took up to several minutes to die of smoke inhalation from the arson fire.
Dr. Malka Shah could not say if burns found on Hayley's body occurred before or after she died. Hayley had been tied in her bed and left to die in the fire that prosecutors said both men set, but her body was found at the top of the staircase.

Michaela also died of smoke inhalation in her bed. The girls' mother was raped and strangled.

Hayley's clothes smelled of gas, she had remnants of tightly tied rope on her, burns all over her body and her lungs were filled with carbon monoxide, said Shah, of the chief medical examiner's office. Inhaling smoke and hot air would have been painful and such deaths can take anywhere from a few to several minutes, Shah said.

Shah said she could not say whether the burns occurred while Hayley was alive, nor could she say if the injuries occurred before or after Hayley fell in the hallway.

If the death had taken several minutes, Hayley would have fallen unconscious at some point, she said under cross-examination. But before that, victims typically suffer headaches, nausea, vomiting and disorientation, she said.

i guess I was thinking about how they must've tried desperately to get loose as the flames started to melt the bedding and clothing.  Whatever they were feeling was surely painful and terrifying.  Hayes was merciful (if I can use that term) enough to kill Jennifer outright.  JK was in it for the torture, imo.
