Good God!

Please, please stop! No one cares!! No one cares about this tabloid bullshit except people like Nancy Grace.

Find him guilty, find him not guilty, I don't care, just GET OFF THE FREAKING SCREEN!!!!

Murder trials take place all the time. Stop trying to make this one seem special!!

Similar comment was made by one of our VPs earlier today.
Breakroom TV was on Fox News & his comment was in the vein of "why is this on & not the news?"

My feelings exactly. I checked when he was testifying and it was boring.

They even have series on Netflix on this and the trial is still ongoing.
I read about this guy several years ago when things started to come crashing down and it sounds like the factual stuff hasn't changed. That was more than enough for me.

From day 1 I tried to ignore it. For the reasons you list.

I did chuckle a few minutes ago when the headline on my news site was that he admitted to being there just before the murders. Now can they hurry up and cook his goose and let him fade into obscurity already?!

The convoluted story when it first broke was interesting. John Grisham could have used the material. Once the likes of Nancy Grace became involved the story went down hill.
The OJ trial was somewhat interesting as well as the Rittehouse trial.

I spent enough time watching to be thankful that I am not a trial attorney.

Going down to your local courthouse is much more entertaining.

Haven't clicked on a single article, I'm sure it's an enthralling story, but I just DGAF. FOX is covering it heavily, is it Rupert's kid?

I don't care much what they broadcast during the day, but why are they wasting so much of Special Report?? I count on that for my news, I do not need to see 10/15 minutes of this trial EVERY NIGHT.

Timely thread. The wife and I had this argument just today. She watched a good deal of the trial today, then got mad at me when I told her no one gives a crap about any of it. I then wondered out loud how anyone with a brain could watch even a minute of it.

I think she is still mad.

Maybe she took what that Don Le’ Moan said to heart, thinking she’s past her prime & no longer with it. Blame him he’s gettin paid to be dressed down & humiliated.

The wife and her sister are watching this crap religiously. Whenever she tells me I should watch some piece of it, I just say I’m not really interested and I need to “do the taxes/clean out the garage/fix a plumbing leak/whatever” and leave it at that. Telling her I think viewing it is an idiotic waste of time would not be conducive to marital harmony, so I don’t. Thought everyone knew that’s not a hill to die on!

Listened to it a bit. I am shocked by the absolute ignorance of addiction by the attorneys. Dumber than dumb.

Yeah, but what really matters is what the jurors think they know about addiction, especially if the attorneys are not going to put on experts to tell the jury the real facts about addiction.

True. Your average citizen here is not from Kansas and I suspect knows more about opiates than these lawyers.

I saw a short piece when surfing. The ONLY thing I thought was interesting in during the 20 second section was that they could tell what position the phone was in, portrate and/or landscape.
I suppose with tech today, I should not be surprised.

Its an act by them to play dumb to the jurors imo.

I like reading the UK Daily Mail as they often will report on things or go into much greater depth than our own MSM will do but they also love to latch onto this CRAP and seem to obsess over it.

I don’t get it at all, the guy was a scumbag and killed his own family…I DON’T CARE.

He's either a brilliant, guilty as sin, psychopath or a dumber than a post, not guilty, good ol' boy with a nice southern accent.

He's playing to the latter but I suspect that it's the former.

^^^^^^This! Well he's playing the dumber part with the accent. Think thats the only chance he has with the jurors.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Sorry to burst your bubble, but his accent reflects upper crust low country south carolina. He is not putting on a fake accent.
