Geragos is a really bad lawyer, if you ask me. He blusters away about absolutely nothing (he has ever since he took on Winona Ryder) and when none of it comes to fruition, it all comes back to bite him in the ass. A good lawyer has to at least back up a little bit of what they say, but this guy spouts off tall tales that not only don't make sense, but sound like they came out of a Stephen King novel. Cults in black vans abducting Laci and then killing her and her baby as a ritual sacrifice? The guy is a joke, I wouldn't let him handle his own case on Judge Judy. By all accounts, the jury is sick and tired of his antics and are always roling their eyes whenever he stands up. Alienating the jury isn't going to score you any points, especially in a murder trial.

The jury needs to go into the jury room and think about two things: did the state prove that Scott did it? Did the defense prove that someone esle could have done it? Taking into account that all this is is circumstantial, my answers would most definitely be yes and no. Geragos has not done anything to prove that someone else did it. He has not even given a credible theory about how she died and who killed her. I can tell you right now that when the jury sits down tot hink about this, they're going to look at all of his blustering antics and then look at all of the things that the prosecution has shown. The $15,000, the disguise, the camping gear, the fake ID, being 20 miles from the border, Laci's body washing onto the shore where Scott was fishing, her hair in his pliars, how she could have easily fitted into his toolbox, his affair with Amber, his references in the past tense, how he blew off John Walsh and America's Most Wanted to play golf, his lying to the authorities, his demeanor, ALL of this will kill him. Mark my words.

duly marked.
