Hey, Andrea. How are you? Great to speak with you again.

Yeah, it's interesting. People at first want to take one side, and then you start to see them take another side. But there was quite a bit of comments throughout the show, certainly about Ashley, about her testimony. On Doug, the things that really turned people a certain way was the dog. When people heard that he hit his dog, that turned a lot of people off.

Well, this is always the real challenge for juries because no one was there. The only one that was still alive was Ashley, who knows really what happened that day. And to try to figure out from one person who's still living and them telling your story, and obviously they don't want to go to jail. It's very difficult.

So they were turned down because the prosecution was showing some photos, I believe, or graphics inside. And so they asked that the lights be dimmed so that the jurors could see them more clearly in a darkened room. So after they were done with that and they started doing their cross-examination, the lights remained down.

And then that's what point you see on air is when the prosecutor says, hey, can we bring those lights back up? That's the reason why.

Right. So I want to be totally fair to Ashley. I did see tears at certain points. She was up there for a long time and there was a lot of crying. And I could see it actually better when I watched it on videotape rather than sitting in the courtroom because she was quite a distance from me. Rebecca Field, who was one of the co-prosecutors, in her closing remarks, okay, now she said this.

This is not me saying this. She said, I don't know any other way how to say this, but where were her snotts? She said, because when you cry so much, you know, you're looking for Kleenex. And she said, that never happened.

Yeah, I mean, there were some comments that I saw about, you know, that she was a dancer, but that she really should have been an actress.

Sue, wouldn't you like to know? Well, actually- Yeah, what is it? I want to know. Okay, yeah, I know. Okay, we would like to know also. Obviously, we request these videos from the police, and they blurred it out. So it was something that they blurred out. Oh, I thought it was us. So we have no idea either. So we'll all be wondering that for perhaps eternity.
