Rest of Destinee Rhamy jurors excused early because a juror is sick

 

I just did a very detailed post on homicide suspect Destinee Rhamy's case on Monday. That post has all previous coverage on the case.

This is my second post on the trial with some key observations and information. I have included court minutes from yesterday. 

On 2/24, jury was sworn around 3:30 p.m. From what I saw, two male alternates and one female alternate and 6 women, 6 men? It is very crowded at the courthouse, I am busy and I got a quick look. Yesterday, there were four people sitting on one side of the courtroom and two family members for the victim, Holland Renee Elbik, sitting on the other side with Victim Witness Advocate MH.

Since my last post, the criminal clerk supervisor and local civil attorney, Randall Davis  criminal were both excused.

On 2/25, Deputy District Attorney Roger Rees and Ms. Andrea Sullivan gave opening statements. Today, the rest of the jury was excused early morning and shortly after court was in session because a juror is sick.

Attorneys met with Judge Killoran later today informal discussions about jury instructions. Rhamy waived her presence for these discussions.

2/25 court minutes:

2/27/26: Jury trial resumes. In session only until.

1:30 due to last day of Antone Aubrey court trial in the afternoon. Juror #8 still ill excused; replaced by alternate juror.
