After today's brilliant questioning of Geffner by Martinez and how he absolutely tore apart Geffner's testimony, I have no idea why the defense (Arias) would put their other witnesses on the stand only to have the same results happen.
Geffner's laughing, I don't remembers, I don't knows, his direct insults of DeMarte as a professional and his admitting to not being thorough in his assessment of Arias by interviewing the Hughes, Lisa AND by picking and choosing how he would administer tests - all led to his complete lack of credibility as a defense expert.
Martinez systematically uncovered his lack of ethics in his profession and had him fumbling for answers. No amount of damage control by Wilmott could undo the obvious.
Although I do not know why these witnesses would want to return, I understand why (I guess) the defense (Arias) would have them come back. What else can they do but to try and convince the jury that their experts are sound in their opinions? That, and if they do not call them, Arias will try to take both Nurmi and Wilmott to the cleaners for not completing her sur-rebuttal case.
I am not in the least worried about the jury. We here in this forum are reasonable people and laymen and even we can see the obvious bias with the defense's (Arias') witnesses and their total inconsistencies/lies in their testimonies. There are 12 committed and ordinary people on the jury and I have no doubt that they too see what we see.
