October 2, 20196 yr Yea... really not sure why they brought her on the stand, the detective. got nothing from that.
October 2, 20196 yr I think these witnesses are hurting her cause. I'm hearing nothing that makes me feel any kind of sympathy for her.
October 2, 20196 yr oooh state is crossing Macpherson. sidebar after an objection. after discussing text messages the squad group would send to each other.
October 2, 20196 yr I only felt sorry for her mom, but I don't think what she said will have any sway. Not a one of them helped her cause.
October 2, 20196 yr This would be a good time for the defense to call to the stand the hoards of other people who accidentally shot their neighbors dead.
October 2, 20196 yr I assume they will break for lunch soon and then come back and deliberate on the sentence and we will get that later this afternoon. Is that a fair assumption?

October 2, 20196 yr Commentators brought up a point that very few (none ???) of the witnesses have mentioned any apology to the family of Bo. I don't think Amber did during her testimony. Will Amber testify during this phase?

I don't think Amber did during her testimony. Will Amber testify during this phase? Serious question...What would she say at this point? She already did herself in on the stand by admitting intention to kill and to top it off, hearing noises before entering. Her texts/social media content is now being seen. Those crocodile tears won't do any good now. She does not come off sympathetic to a jury. And not to mention her sexting a married man leading to this shooting. Her on the stand just adds gasoline to this fire.

I don't think Amber did during her testimony. Will Amber testify during this phase? As the former judge said on commentary, it would likely be a HORRIBLE idea. The state will rip her apart no matter what for the texts and social media stuff. No apology will make up for the damage they would do to her on the stand again.
October 2, 20196 yr There ya go... Brenda Sales, her best friend, just said sorry to the family for her.
October 2, 20196 yr Just now, hopkinsnhorns said: This lady looks like Paula Deen in blackface. Don't kill anyone... that's not gonna look good to the jury...
October 2, 20196 yr It's a nice story of helping a crackhead but.. did she help her get into the program or anything? If all she did was give her a ticket instead of arresting her, well.. it's something but. not much.
October 2, 20196 yr Sidebar... attorneys laughing. Lunch break Back in session at 1:30 Edited October 2, 20196 yr by msudawg
October 2, 20196 yr Not sure what it says that BY FAR the defense's most effective character witness was a recovering crackhead that Guyger talked to once during a drug bust. If I'm the jury, I'm asking why this lady was better able to sell Amber's character than all of her best friends and family.

You know that thing people do when they answer questions like this sarcastically and replace all of the "S"'s in their response with dollar signs? This is similar but I am not sure how to replace the "S"'s with something that would imply it is because she is black.

Quite telling. 3 or 4 more of these and I could almost believe she would be worth some sympathy

October 2, 20196 yr She just got slapped by the reality that she is NOT above the law, like most cops think they are. Hopefully this will send a wide-reaching message

I don't think Amber did during her testimony. Will Amber testify during this phase? She gets the option to address the courtroom right before the sentence is handed down, correct?
October 2, 20196 yr Is the state pushing for the max of 99 years? Each side will speak for about 20 mins. They are about to start.
October 2, 20196 yr State closes by saying this is not a 15 or 20 year case, but Guyger deserves more than that.
October 2, 20196 yr "What I want you to do is ignore the racist texts and ridiculous facebook memes and do this: Focus on the abject stupidity of my client." - Guyger Defense Team.

That's pretty much what they've got at this point, right? "Have pity on her, she's a moron"
October 2, 20196 yr Popular Post She seems all kinds of personally fucked up. I'm surprised her and I have never had sex and a terrible short term relationship.

"Have pity on her, she's a moron" That was exactly the sentiment between the racist callers on the radio. 'You can't blame her, she's dumb.' A lawyer came on and actually said it was a 'Justifiable Homicide', because she had no idea where she was.

October 2, 20196 yr Interesting. That's true. State is discrediting sudden passion and defense objects since he never mentioned it. Overuled because it was mentioned in the documents.

October 2, 20196 yr If any of you experts happened to see/hear it, could the Prosecution bringing up "sudden passion" during sentencing closing be an issue? Sounds like it was in the charge, but Defense was upset because they did not mention it. Side note: Kudos and a thank you to all the contributors on this thread--lots of useful information the past few days... Edited October 2, 20196 yr by smoothlonghorn grammar
