I’ll get it to page 1…

Did he ask her out on a date too? Gushing over a malicious addict.

@Einhorn, this is what I get when I google it. I searched for ‘secreted’.

I stand by my attempt at humor.

What are everyone’s thoughts about MHG dumping MB and moving on to a new beau?
Also wondering what people’s thoughts are on MB’s working student, JO’s mom now dating MB?
JO indicated on the stand they were in a "romantic relationship ". How can you be in a romantic relationship while in jail?

Nobody cares about who is dating who. Worry about your own dating life maybe.

I missed the testimony of the working student. Does anyone know what day that was on?

The judge just ruled on it, EB. The jury will not be instructed to consider a not guilty by reason of self defense option.

WRONG! The sorry performance of the sorry PD IS ADMISSIBLE! That means NO GSR WAS DETECTED BECAUSE THEY DIDN’T TEST ANYONE for it!!! So show me ANY evidence Michael Barisone fired a gun! Or for that matter, Lauren or Rob!

[DustBunny02]

I’m not caught up yet so apologies if someone has already discussed this…

If MB is found not guilty does that open it up to the possibility of him filing a civil suit against LK and RG? Is he allowed to sue with a felony?

“If MB is found not guilty does that open it up to the possibility of him filing a civil suit against LK and RG? Is he allowed to sue with a felony?”

He could sue her. But I imagine a prudent lawyer and the people around him would tell him to just move on and not put yourself through this madness any more.

[Einhorn]

I do too! It was funny! I’m trying to support you, and failing miserably…

I think much of what has gone on in these threads for 2.5 years is utterly disgusting.

What is the main reason LK is so reviled? Her nasty, disgusting SM posts?

So 20 huge threads are created to repeat ad nauseum the most disgusting statements possible about LK and her family? You really don’t see the hypocrisy?

LK has 19,000 social media posts, according to evidence presented at this trial. Many of which were public before this trial. Many of which were vile and profoundly abusive and defamatory.

Then, in the wake of the shooting, long threads were created on the forums discussing her. Threads in which she was a VERY ACTIVE participant.

Soooo… no… I’m not particularly concerned about issues of hypocrisy. It is what it is. An all out social media brawl. It’s not pretty. But… this is what happens when someone posts thousands of times on social media, and has an incredibly hostile style. That sort of thing boomerangs. Reaping and sowing and all that.

OK. You find her use of SM disgusting and vile and have chosen to respond in kind in the SM brawl.

I find both LKs use of SM and the resulting response on SM to be disgusting and vile.

@Mondo

So, I’m sure this has been asked and answered in the previous mammoth thread, but Taylor’s reason for excluding the zillions of texts and SM posts is that it is “hearsay,” right? But is it? Is it putting the victim on trial? I think it speaks 100% to the defendant’s state of mind and what drove him to the extremes he took.

Well, the judge kinda did too.
" if the jury thinks MB had a diminished state of mind,… Couldn’t form intent to kill… With all the tension and toxic environment… "

@Virginia_Horse_Mom

LK has 19,000 social media posts

That’s just the posts about mb!

I don’t think I have 1900 SM posts in total!

He can still go for not guilty; he just can’t go for not guilty by reason of self defense.

[BrownDerby]

Looks like Judge Taylor stayed up too late watching the Masters replay.

@CurrentlyHorseless

The judge just ruled that the jury will not have an option to consider “not guilty be reason of self defense”.

How is one person allowed to decide that? Shouldn’t that be up to the jury?

[Knights_Mom]

Yes the jury should determine that.

It’s the job of the judge to give instructions to the jury as to what they can consider, according to the law. That was the whole point of the conference this morning.

[BrendaJane]

not to mention a plea deal would have given amunition the the Kanarek Klan to go after his farm in Florida…ti finish him off completely.

He said there was “no evidence” to support the idea, or theory, of self defense because MB didn’t testify.

But they didn’t allow the defense to ever present anything….
