our correspondent kerry sanders was talking about the fact they have one expert witness for the prosecution and another from the defense. today we had an individual saying that they didn t think there was evidence of decomposition in the car. does that mean most of that story about the body in the car is likely to be dismissed by the jury, because they ve heard one explanation from an expert, another from another. do they cancel each other out? it s battle of the experts at this point, and it s easy to forget who has the burden of proof. of course the prosecution has the burden. it s not that they just have to tip the scale a bit. have to have a lot of proof. the defense only has to poke some holes in the evidence that the prosecution s experts brought in. so i think even though we talk about the battle of 9 experts, the jury will be reminded by the judge in the instructions, and thus far the defense s experts have been pretty good. so if all of that canceled itself out finally w
from the defense besides this forensic evidence? i agree, there s a battle of the experts and the defense is doing a good job in the battle of the experts, but i had a case once with a prosecutor, where they made statement necessary opening statements that they couldn t back up with the facts and on closing argument i walked up to the jury and i pointed, and i made notes where the prosecutor was standing and i said the prosecutor stood here and told you this and he told you this and it wasn t true, was it and he stood you there and he told you that was true and it wasn t. that s what s going to happen to jose baez if he doesn t put on evidence that backs up what he said in opening statements. jenna: i only have 30 seconds, dwayne. how close do you think it is that jose baez for being held in contempt, that the judge stoping this case because of all the obstacles, all the criticism of this team? i believe that jose baez is going to be held in con tevment probably not during the proc

let alone a grandmother to act and not only did she talk about the smell in the car, when the jurors hear the 911 call and she first talks about the smell and the dead body and that her grandbaby is missing, that is what is going to reverberate with the jury and on top of the other evidence is going to send the jury quickly back with a guilty verdict here. gregg: i was watching the defense, which now a couple of days into their case, they called pathologist, dr. werner spitz to the witness stand and he disputed the prosecution theory of suffocation by duct tape but he, too, could not, joey, give a cause of death and could not substantiate and this is important, the defense claim of accidental drowning, if that is the best they can do, they are in trouble. that is a problem, but, here is what will happen, at the end of the day you have a battle of the experts and you know, gregg, what ends up happening is, the prosecution, they put on their case, they have experts, that say one ann
all of the other stuff in the trunk of the car the prosecution said was trash and nothing organic. now, the defense has an equally qualified expert who has examined the same evidence, and he is suggesting, no, these flies, these maggots could have been there based on the items in the trunk, and that blow fly, the leg of a tiny bug found in there, he told the court, they are very common in florida. in fact, if i looked around this courtroom, i could find one in here. so, this is very technical information being boiled down as much as they can to a high school level for the folks sitting on the jury, because it is complicated stuff, so they can then come to some sort of conclusion, but it is the battle of the experts, and that is what many legal minds said would happen here. there would be scientific experts on either side leaving the jury to wonder, which one to believe. tamron. yes, thank you very much.
