Yesterday the prosecution gave its opening argument. Today the defense will argue and the prosecution will rebut. I have a feeling they will eat up the day with arguments. If that is right, any verdict (and I predict an acquittal, although you never know what a jury will do) will come next week and not this afternoon. But you never know.
