Mark gives himself away here with his arrogant act of non chalance & dis-interest in what she says. A genuinely innocent, in the dark, clueless & devastated husband will want to hear the details, as horrible as they may be. Most of us with decency will stop to pay attention out of respect for the subject being spoken of, if we truly love the person, even if he did kill her most people have remorse and enough decency to be respectful when the details of the death are explained. He is an arrogant fool.
I think you are going to see a bunch of stick-figure drawings of him and his friends with a few houses and trees and a few birds and butterflies (probably flying in a circle over his head)
What would you say that? They got a phone call telling them who was involved after that it’s pretty simple to get phone records and videos from gas stations and Walmart and phone record’s!!
This really was excellent detective work. Starting with no on-scene clues they developed a no doubt of guilt against three people. This will be a great case to study how to start with nothing and prove guilt beyond a doubt.
Didn't the attorneys tell Mark that everything being said by the prosecutor, his attorneys, witnesses, and the judge will appear in the trial transcript a copy of which he is entitled to see and have for the purpose of assisting his attorney on appeal? Moreover, that he is he is entitled to be furnished with a daily copy of the trial proceedings during his jury trial for the purpose of assisting his attorney during his defense? Obviously, his attorneys did not advise him of his due process rights. Instead, what they did do, to assist the prosecution, was to distract Mark by telling him to take notes during his trial. In so doing they deprived him of his right, the right to act during the trial proceeding as a weeping, depressed, falsely accused innocent individual. That's what the jury needed to see when they observed him. Because let us not forget "that anything you say or do can and will be used against you". The jury seriously observed Mark during the proceeding and not once did they see him as a depressed, weeping, falsely accused individual and by not doing so they considered him guilty as charged on all counts.
thats true, If I had been a juror in that case, I would have seen him as a person seeking to defend himself against accusations for something he did. Not for being innocent.
@@CA72220 Good observation. Notwithstanding, in my point of view, defense attorneys were ineffective in doing their jobs, they couldn't do much with what they had; it's always the ones you know or think you know the best who in the end stab you in the back. Here the issue was greed and it makes people do the unthinkable. Thank you for your reply, stay alert, stay safe. As a personal note, the Grandmother and uncle of the deceased had a monetary interest in the outcome of the case. This victim did not deserve what happened to her, no one does.😒
He is freaking guilty Did you see all of his whining crying fake act in his interrogation w police? The jury knows he’s a lying murderous piece of waste Rot in prison dick with ears I mean inmate dick w ears
His lawyer hadn't even done a murder case before. The judge advised mark sievers to get an attorney thts dealt with murder cases but he decided to keep the uneducated one his twin 😆😆
@@chicky255 Thank's for letting me know that. The fact is that He was doomed from the start. Only a jerk could possibly conceive such a plot and think, they get away with it; no acting in the world could have possibly gotten that fish off the hook, so long Mark enjoy your three meals a day and dream about when you were free, enjoying life's little pleasures.
If I'm being charged with murder and I'm innocent you better believe I'm gonna be listening to every single word that is being said. Mark Sievers doesn't want to pay attention because he knows he is guilty as sin. Just like Jodi Arias when the prosecution was talking. These guilty idiots don't know how to look innocent because they're not. They're guilty as sin and they know it. Plain and simple.
That's not the judge's job it's his attorney's job, he did a piss poor job of defending Mark. You may say how could he have defended him better one way was to stop clicking that dampen of his.
You are so correct. She is speaking slowly and precisely giving you time to let all her words sink into your mind. I found both of the prosecuting attorneys did an excellent job. Cudos to them.
My gawd the jury has grounds for a charge of cruel and unusual punishment for having to sit through the prosecution opening statement look lady its a jury not a kindergarten class you can speak normally
I had 2 look up the meaning of the word Cadence & I now hv a title for the story I'm writing! Thanks for ur comment, I like the meaning of the word & the way it sounds, it's perfect!
I already hate the way this prosecutor is giving this opening statement as if she narrating an Ann rule crime book. Stop it ma'am. Just talk to the jury. U can tell she practiced this opening in the mirror all night.
Judging by her age, I’m sure she has a lot of experience from similar trials and knows full well what kind of narration goes best with a jury (in this case). The whole case is in fact a story, with no direct evidence linking Mark to the murder (other than testimony by the killer) - _there was probably a good chance for Mark to be acquitted_
She is so great. In addition to her skills and expertise, her verbal skills and accent are perfect. Kudos
Look at Mark… acting like he’s a lawyer. Lmao. Rest In peace, Thersa.
What possibly could Sievers be writing during her entire 39 minute opening statement?
Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Exactly.
So I watched this trial from start to finish on court tv!!i swear I would love to read whatever the hell mark wrote on that legal pad!
I think you are going to see a bunch of stick-figure drawings of him and his friends with a few houses and trees and a few birds and butterflies (probably flying in a circle over his head)
Maybe he was doodling, drawing little cartoons of the judge, prosecutors, and so on.
Jodi Arias did the same thing, although I thought she was maybe coloring in a coloring book.
Gosh so would I....Feel for there Daughters lost both parents...
That's too funny.. I was thinking the same thing! Lol ,trying to look busy.
amazing detective work!
What would you say that? They got a phone call telling them who was involved after that it’s pretty simple to get phone records and videos from gas stations and Walmart and phone record’s!!

what is he taking notes all the time. who is he trying to impress. how did he ever think he could pull this off.
They would have pulled it off until someone snitched
He is writing what he did to her sicko, no care if he has the mind to write. He looks stupid.

What the heck is the murderer writing? He never stops and he never reacts in any way.
Genius crown prosecution
YOU WOULD THINK HE COULD SHOW SOME KIND OF EMOTION, EVEN FAKE 😒
His arrogance is outrageous, and he's attempting to appear writing his rebuttal. Prayers for family, friends, and community.
fake
They literally cannot do this they are not born to do so
These people that going around killing folks shouldn't do that. They should behave better than that, I believe
Moe, Larry and Curly LOL!!!
is the furious writing just for show to the jury?
Keeping busy
He’s too much of a coward to pay any attention.
Scribble, scribble, scribble………….
Guilty
Nailed him
If it was not for the phone tip they would not have solved this! They only did the easy work after they know who was involved!
Scream alert at 1 min cover your ears.
Mark Sievers is doodling ...
When brains beats brawn
What the hell ? Did all those dudes decide it was green tie day 🥴
What is he writing he death wish.
be sure to listen at 1.25 speed
The Murderer: “Geez, I had no idea all this was going on.....I’d better write it all down!”
The Jury: “Nice try, Baldie, not buying it!”

HE IS GUILTY I HAVE NO DOUGHT SUCH AGTOR ALWAYS WRITING SUCH A FOOLIF HE COULD SEE HIM SELLF
what an embarrassing opening statement. ill bet she was hoping this one never made it to you tube. ouch
He should have pretended to be the attorney and trade places fir a clean get away. They look identical
Maybe he is taking dictation to pretend he is busy
His own lawyer thinks innocent until he understands his body language
He mistook her for a nail. Case dismissed
Sick fuck!
TAKES TOO LONG...!.....
Why is he not listening, because he is guilty. The judge should have told him to put down the pen and pay attention.
George Bain bc he didn't want to listen to something he already know he did himself
He has to keep busy or he will start raging
Very hard to control when your guilty
@@monmacphee289 yea, he is full of rage!
Trust me he listening very carfully he just pretend not to 😅😅😅
That's not the judge's job it's his attorney's job, he did a piss poor job of defending Mark. You may say how could he have defended him better one way was to stop clicking that dampen of his.
Nailed him
She’s making it easy on the court stenographer. Thanks!
You are so correct. She is speaking slowly and precisely giving you time to let all her words sink into your mind. I found both of the prosecuting attorneys did an excellent job. Cudos to them.
He should be writing "Thou shalt not KILL" looking forward to hell mate? there wont be any water to sip there!
Atheist ?
Great prosecution work.
He's guilty as sin ... I agree he is writing his will 😂
This woman has me convinced and we haven't even heard witness testimony yet!
Be convinced coz he's as guilty as sin every time the state mentions something he done he sips at water to distract the fact he's guilty
I would do just about anything for my best friends,not murder. Your on your own,I'm omw to the cops.
Mark Sievers is doing a crossword puzzle
I knew a guy that took off his shoe during his trial and threw it at the prosecutor hitting on the back of his head.
I really want to see what the F Mark Was writing?
38:53 Mark plays off spilling his water.
Mark Sievers hired a Killer who looked like him then he he hired a lawyer who looked like him.
the killer was his best friend since childhood
@@CA72220 I know that lmao he hired him
Sievers pretending that he has important notes to take. You can see that he's just trying to look busy.
Defendants should not be given writing-or in this case, doodling-instruments 🖊
Monsters..............
Look at him write shyt down. Lol
My gawd the jury has grounds for a charge of cruel and unusual punishment for having to sit through the prosecution opening statement look lady its a jury not a kindergarten class you can speak normally
The State’s cadence is annoying.
I had 2 look up the meaning of the word Cadence & I now hv a title for the story I'm writing! Thanks for ur comment, I like the meaning of the word & the way it sounds, it's perfect!
JeAna Katherine You’re very welcome ❤️
I thought she did well.
Thank you. I learned a new word today. Very befitting of the attorney.
Opening statements 40 min....damn
They don't show that in the movies
They look like terrible twins....
I already hate the way this prosecutor is giving this opening statement as if she narrating an Ann rule crime book. Stop it ma'am. Just talk to the jury. U can tell she practiced this opening in the mirror all night.
Ashley P LOL
Ashley P - Perhaps, but she and her colleague got the job done. All the way to the well earned DP. That’s what’s important.
I think she did a fab job!
Judging by her age, I’m sure she has a lot of experience from similar trials and knows full well what kind of narration goes best with a jury (in this case).

@@goranjosic Thank you for valuing the contributions of older women. It happens very rarely.
So wish you had someone else besides this woman!
Husband kill wife Terse dead on floor. Kitchen lot blood on floor and
I have to admit I was bored to tears with this opening statement....it wasn't bad it just could have been better. Lol
i had to do the 1.25 speed..
@@harletterider9658 I did the same thing!!😂
Thanks good ideal 👍🏼
