Wonder what kind of independent research on the jury instructions Karen #54 did as she was burning the midnight oil.
Because of that, I think it is more likely we see some action today. Not saying we get a verdict necessarily nor a declaration of a hung jury but jury misconduct could be on the menu.
I cannot stress how phenomenally bad of a decision it was for the judge to allow jury instructions to be taken home last evening. There could be a lot of ramifications today if jurors from each side took them with them and disobeyed the judge's orders and armed themselves with outside research. Schroeder practically invited such misconduct with that decision.
Colossal blunder.
So, let's go over the reversible errors:
1) 5th amendment problems during Kyle's cross
2) 5th amendment problems about Mr. Z during prosecutions close (maybe?)
3) Blatant Brady violation on probably the most important piece of evidence in this case
4) Allowing Jury to take home charge (and possibly notes)
5) Subornation of perjury regarding the Khindri bros
What a complete mess.
Anything I miss?
