Monday April 18th
A number of cases were heard before the Grim Sleeper Trial began so there were many other lawyers in the room at 9am when I was already sitting in my seat.
Beth Silverman walked in, very loudly greeting everyone in the room (except me of course), spending a lot of time talking to the victims family members and 6 Witnesses whom she had brought in for the day. I recognized a few of the 6 male Witnesses as a few of them had testified before. They were all firearm experts with various law enforcement agencies.
At 10.01am, Lonnie Franklin was walked in wearing an orange jumpsuit and waist chained. Overkill to the max I thought. He's harmless to everyone in that Courtroom and less than 9 days ago he was wearing a dress shirt and slacks and sporting a studious pair of glasses, yet today (as the Jury wasn't present) he's back in his prison garb, waist chained and then chained to the chair. If anyone should be waist chained and chained to a chair it should be Seymour Amster!
