Bozo's bladder must be the size of his brain....lol 

[Scatty]

I wonder if it's too late for the State to take the death penalty off the table. I think this jury might be a lot closer to being seated if they did. LWOP is fine with me; at least she wouldn't be able to harm anyone else--just  maybe take part in prison politics with Big Bertha as her goon squad and protector.

The judge called that break rather abruptly.. 

Sometimes when ya gotta go, ya gotta go now.

Her meds must be kicking in finally.  She looks exactly the same in Klaas and Brandi's pics!  What are the aggravating circumstances?  Anyone?

Newfie - Premeditation is one and age of victim is another (I believe l2 years old and under, ICBW)

[Brandi]

Still searching, but here are a few:
It was premeditated
The victim was under the age of 12
The defendant was the victim's parent

Under Florida, law, prosecutors need to raise only one of 15 possible aggravating factors to support their decision to seek the death penalty.

Also here: Among the legal reasons cited: Caylee's death occurred during aggravated child abuse, was especially "heinous, atrocious, or cruel," and was committed in a "cold, calculated and premeditated manner without any pretense of moral or legal justification," according to the document.

Caylee was also under 12 years old, and Anthony "stood in a position of familial or custodial authority over her," the document states.

They are, as written in state law:

The capital felony involved aggravated child abuse
It was premeditated
The victim was under the age of 12
The defendant was the victim's parent

There are two other aggravating circumstances the state may or may not try to prove. One of them is that the defendant benefited financially from the victim's death. The other is that the alleged slaying was especially heinous, atrocious or cruel.

The judge called that break rather abruptly.. 

Someone from the DT or State prob gave a sign of some sort to JP that they needed a quick recess. JP also stated yesterday or Thursday he would have frequent breaks for his court reporter to give her fingers a rest. He unfortunately only brought 1 court reporter.....and he regrets not bringing 2.

Thanks Brandi and can!  I finally got WESH to pull up ... then was promptly booted from the cage!

And there's my favorite.  Caylee paid for her murderer's legal defense ... right up until the FL taxpayers started paying for it.  I think that one would be easy to prove.

Hey Monkeys.  Having a hard time keeping up these days.  DH has been sick.

I feel defense has down everything possible to thwart this jury process. Knowing that a juror is unacceptable but objecting to cause is one factor.
Another being the number of juror held in jury room when working late, although ultimately I believe HJBP is responsible for this.
Last night was not the first time they quickly ran out of jurors.

For those pj's that have been asked to find out if their employer would pay for their time away on jury duty, it is already known that if not, the pj would be excused for hardship.  Why don't they cull these quicker.  Perhaps by asking asking court ass't to ask those specific jurors when they report back to court - thus allowing then to be excused quickly and move on to other possibles.  I don't think that is against the law, but what do I know.

Welcome, not had any problems with the forum, myself. You might consider rebooting your browser.

Sidebar, again, asked for by the defense.

That's a good point.

I personally don't believe that the death penalty is a deciding factor for not getting PJ.  I believe that the current state of the economy, people struggling to get by, having to very closely watch their finances-that most people do not need something like this to further complicate their already dire circumstances.  KC will never accept LWOP cause her "A-Team" of lawyers have promised her she will walk out of the courtroom a free woman.  JMO

Uh oh..Finnell is gettin' froggy.....

The STATE just did a nice job with this PT who has a child the same age as Caylee to have her say she could be objective so that the defense cannot get rid of her for causse. Well done, this a a good prosecution juror.

Day 6: Casey Anthony Jury Selection Murder Trial in the Death of Caylee Anthony … Juror #1394 Says “I would see that as a guilt by omission if you will”

http://scaredmonkeys.com/2011/05/14/day-6-casey-anthony-jury-selection-murder-trial-in-the-death-of-caylee-anthony-juror-1394-says-i-would-see-that-as-a-guilt-by-omission-if-you-will/

DAY 6: Casey Anthony was just slapped with a dose of reality that should have made her cry, it did not …

And it is my conviction that any failure to participate or be engaged entirely in that process would probably overshadow my ability to be objective about actual commission of a crime.  I would see that as a guilt by omission if you will.

BOMBSHELL, ITS TIME FOR THE DEFENSE TO WORRY … Casey Anthony, attorney Jose Baez and the rest of the Team Casey defense team just got a cold hard reality check this morning by a prospective juror #1394 during the Q & A.What appeared to be an average, every day, American mom … the 2011′s version of Marian Cunningham said a mouthful that should cause pause and shock to tot mom Casey Anthony and her defense team. The potential juror does not watch Nancy Grace, nor Geraldo Rivera nor  really did not watch much of the story of the disappearance and death of Caylee and the accusations of murder against Casey Anthony. However, that did not stop her from saying the powerful message below that the State prosecution better be writing down as part of their opening statement.
