 Continual fall out - Judge removes himself from microwave baby case

Dayton, Ohio (AP) - A judge has removed himself from the case of a Dayton woman accused of killing her baby by burning her in a microwave.

Visiting Montgomery County Common Please Court Judge John Kessler on Tuesday filed an order stepping down from the case of China Arnold, who has pleaded not guilty to aggravated murder. If convicted, she could face the death penalty.

Kessler cited his retirement and the need to avoid any appearance of being partial as reasons for stepping down.

Kessler declared mistrial on Feb. 11, finding that new defense witnesses bolstered Arnold’s claim of innocence in the death of her daughter, Paris Talley.

  Latest Developments:  Just before judge Kessler declared a mistrial in Arnold case, father comes fourth.

The series of events that prompted judge Kessler to announce a mistrial on Monday February 11, 2008, stem from a Fairborn, OH man’s 7 year old son ( he was 5 year old at time baby Paris Talley died) claiming to have removed baby Paris Talley’s body from a microwave oven.

Fairborn man’s son, identified an older child (his cousin) as the person who may have put baby Paris Talley in the microwave. The 7 year old boy told his father the older child (his cousin) has a history of putting cats, baby dolls and other objects into microwaves and his parent(s) are fully aware of him doing this.

  Day 6 of China Arnold’s Trial - First day of week two

Courtroom X-tra’s:  It was a Party! going on right outside the courtroom. China Arnold supporters -vs.- Terrell Talley (the father of murdered Paris Talley) supporters. You could not help but notice the tension in the hallway.  All of Arnold’s supporters mingled close to the court room doors, while Terrell Talley’s supporters migrated toward the center of the hallway.

While waiting to go inside the court room members from both sides where loud and obnoxious. They where dressed like HOT-GHETTO MESS (silver high heel shoes, pure white pants outfits, long dangling earrings (big as chandeliers), hair-do’s (pasted down with AmiPro hair gel), a variety of hair waves and weaves (lookin’ like a scene out of Bonner Brother’s Hair Show).

Some of Arnold’s supporters had a meeting in the ladies room, discussing how they were going to go shopping for outfits to wear to court the next day (like they were getting for a Jay-z concert), and what bills wouldn’t get paid because they had to LOOK GOOD.

Both sides moved back into the courtroom and was told by the Sheriff that if they continued arguing and pointing fingers outside in the hallway, that they would be banned from the trial proceedings. 

Some X-tra, X-tra:  The accused killer’s oldest two boys are bi-racial. She has 4 children; 3 boys & 1 daughter with three baby daddies.

Today, Terrell Talley testified about the events leading up to his three week old daughter’s death. Every other word out of Talley’s mouth during his testimony was a curse word.  He showed his true ignorance on the stand in the testimony against his child’s killer. 

 He testified that he was playin’ Madden Football (but really sellin’ drugs).  He was a drug dealer and had spent time in the joint (a whopping 60 days in the county jail).  He was loud, cocky, and even argued with Arnold’s attorney, John Rion Jr. several times.  His testimony was a COMPLETE DISASTER and so was HE! 

   Day 5 of China Arnold’s Trial - Last day of week one

The original 12 man jury consisted of 6 white men, 5 white women, 1 black women, and 2 alternates, by the end of day four one of the original juror’s was dismissed and replaced with an alternate (a black women). Now, the final 12 man jury consisted of 6 white men, 5 white women, and 2 black women.

The prosecution team called the lead detective (Doyle Burke) and several expert witnesses too testify. As prosecution team showed various exhibit’s of China’s daughter (little Paris Talley) on the overhead projector, Ms. Arnold became very emotional and requested to leave the court room. The trial proceeded without Ms. Arnold in attendance.

Day 4 of China Arnold’s Trial - Opening Statement & Testimonies

Explosive testimony:  Ms. Arnold’s then jail house female lover (Linda Williams - China succumbs too gay for the stay)  walking everybody in the court room through the series of events, how she (China) confessed too single handily killing her daughter (little Paris Talley).

 An Exhibit - was the garment China’s daughter (little Paris Talley) was wearing when she was killed.

 An Exhibit - was the kitchen appliance (murder weapon, microwave oven) that was used in the death of her daughter (little Paris Talley).

In front of the court room the prosecuting team demonstrated how the baby (little Paris Talley) looked in the microwave oven, by sitting a clear box on top of the microwave oven. Prosecuting team preceded to stuff a fake (baby alive) doll into clear box, baby alive did not fit.

A voice from the dead echoed, “IF IT DOES NOT FIT, YOU MUST AQUIT” (a famous quote said by: Attorney Johnny Cochran used this statement in the infamous O.J. Trial).

  Day 3 of China Arnold’s Trial - Last Day of Jury selection

The defense & prosecution teams have narrowed the potential jury pool too 60 potential juror’s, then final cut too 12 potential juror’s. Prosecution team is strongly pushing for a three man panel (not good for defense team, the more the merrier).

   Day 2 of China Arnold’s Trial - Jury Selection Continues

Downtown Dayton inside Montgomery County Court House looked like a scene from the movie “ROOTS” where they were auctioning off slaves (dismissing potential jurors like it was a cheese line). Instead of dress code requiring shackles on their feet some of the women where wearing skin tight pants, hair going every which way but loose and men wearing psychedelic suites, with their hair slicked back (like Morris Day in the singing group “THE TIME”).

   Day 1 of China Arnold’s Trial - Jury Selection

Important Note: Judge Kessler came out of retirement to preside over the China Arnold case, because the assigned judge (Hall) passed away in 2007.

It was a very interesting first day. Each potential juror entered the court room and screened individually instead of as a group. Jury selection is expected to last approximately 4 days (minimum).

Imposition of the Death Penalty was a HOT topic today (when the Death Penalty should or should not be used). It’s ok for each potential juror to have seen, heard, or read something about the (Microwave Case), as long as an opinion has not been formed.

The Trial will go through a two phase process: phase one - trial; phase two ( final process) sentencing.

Ms. Arnold, was casually dressed in a long sleeve turtleneck cream in color w/dark color trousers. Her hair was neatly braided in two corn rows going back. Ms. Arnold was seated next too her attorney (John Rion Jr.) and Kevin Lynn (John Rion’s) assistant attorney.

China (Ms. Arnold) showed small signs of soft emotions today, wiping the tear drops from her eyes with her left hand as they streamed down her face. At various intervals, through out the day she would massage/scratch her neck with her well manicured and filed finger nails striking both left and right sides.

Allegations: China Arnold is allegedly being accused of killing her one month old daughter (Paris Talley) in a microwave oven. If found guilty she will be charged with aggravated murder with specifications (specifications: 20, 25, 30 years too life in prison without any possibility of parole). Her fate will be determined by a 12 man or 3 man jury, lasting approximately 3 weeks (minimum).
