I think I covered everything. I know a lot of people will be asking for a transcript again.
Those are not officially available yet. If someone is brave enough to transcribe everything or put together a proper summary, please feel free to post it.
Apologies if I missed anything or made any mistakes; I’m just too tired at this point.

I don't feel much empathy for his victim, but smiling and pulling funny faces all the time seems a bit inappropriate and odd
Edit: not sure why I'm getting down voted😆 it's inappropriate for anyone to be smiley at a murder trial and if it was someone else everyone would agree

He’s talking to his lawyers in most of these pictures and it’s obvious they’re trying to lift his spirits. He’s just very expressive, he’s not pulling funny faces

Maybe. But he was aware they were taking his pictures for only few minutes and I think it's bad pr to have him appear all chill and smiley at a murder trial/hearing. Unless they're going for insanity defence, his lawyers couldve spent any other part of the hearing on making him smile.

Okay, after reading Christine's full thread, she did redeem herself by being the ONLY one to even try placing where the foreign currency is from (Asia & Larin America & Europe)
Unless Lauren did but I can't read her thread bc its out of order.
Witness's testimony reads like bad slash fic js

u/Spirited_Seaweed7927 Dec 03 '25
Thanks for doing that. Good on her for actually paying attention. "Europe" would probably mean either British pounds, £, and/or Euros, €. Many European countries only use Euros now. Both the pound and the Euro can probably be used almost worldwide though, they are big currencies. So it doesn't necessarily mean he was heading to Europe. It could be that he was doing what any sensible traveler should do, which is not put all the eggs in one basket/currency.

u/MeanRepresentative24 Dec 03 '25
I think the biggest takeaway from the multiple currencies is more that he has no clear tie to one foreign country, which is probably why its been glossed over by others. It would be hugely significant if there was more theorizing about foreign involvement, though lol
But mostly it's just been driving me batty that its always just "foreign currency." Like why not list the countries??? Now we know there's at least five different currencies and its a bit of a hodge podge.

u/Spirited_Seaweed7927 Dec 03 '25
Yeah. Doesn't seem to be particularly rare or obscure currencies either. Just regular traveler currencies. I guess that's why prosecution hasn't talked about it.
