| Which one was Tess? |
As mentioned by a previous poster the defense had to have him testify because they had no real evidence of Christine cheating or being in to kinky sex and whatever horrible stuff he had to say about her. They needed his testimony to try to make that real. The defense needed that creep with the most bizarre hairline ever seen to testify that Christine was all this bad stuff to try to counter the prosecution's evidence that he and the nanny created the online accounts etc. |
It shows how depraved and disgusting the nanny is. Can't believe the damn deal she got. |
What deal did she get? |
Time served + up to 10 years imprisonment, decided by the Judge. The Prosecution has suggested to release her on time served, after which she will be deported back home to Brazil. |
| I’m probably the only one here saying this, but I’m betting he is found not guilty. |
| Odds of conviction, anyone?? |
respectfully, i’d say there’s very little chance of a not guilty verdict. i’d say there’s is a chance of a hung jury. |
| Regarding the audio, and the CW's rebuttal expert vs. the defense guy who testified about the dog noise: am I understanding correctly that the CW expert listened to the first 911 call, and heard a human voice on there after he isolated some of the noises? So that audio is theoretically available to anyone based on the exhibits released, and who has the correct software? |
Should have got her a better lawyer, Tess. Just kidding, I agree that there is something seriously wrong with both Juliana and Brendan. |
I agree. This is not the professional operation that the Karen Read trial was. |
Gotcha- sorry I misunderstood what you were saying. Yes it is sickening and depraved. Considering all of the calculation that went into planning Christine's horrific death and framing Joe really shows who BB and JM are. If that isn't pure evil I don't know what it is. Juliana's deal doesn't sit well with anyone, but when you descend into hell and go after the devil you are going to have to make a deal with a demon. |
YES And someone linked to the audiofile a few pages back |
I agree, you never know with a jury and it is a case where you have to fill in some blanks so who can say 100%. I would put very good odds that an average reasonable person who just showed up and listened would be much more convinced by the prosecution. If anything other than guilty on all counts happens, we will owe Carroll a huge apology lmao |

Admittedly I didn't listen to the jury instructions (are those posted online anywhere? I tried googling). But there was something about the aggravated homicide charge needing 2 people killed within 3 years or same transaction - what if the jury is convinced on Christine but not on Joe?
I guess they did not want to charge separately because of whatever sentencing attaches (?), but they kind of put the bar higher for themselves than they needed to? I understand they may have done for strategic reasons. |
