Yeah.
Yeah.
And he's quite a bit older than the other brothers as well.
So who knows?
Yeah, it's been quite interesting, honestly.
I mean, in the first week of the trial, I was actually quite shocked about how relaxed and confident they seemed.
During the early stages, they were very smiley and talking, you know, hugging people inside and outside of the courtroom that had showed up to support them and whispering and shaking their head and laughing sometimes when people are speaking on the stand.
That actually led to them being told off by the court.
One of the marshals pulled them aside and said, you know, respect this institution for what it stands for.
This was to the family directly before court one day, telling them to not speak during testimony, to not stare at witnesses as they come and leave in an effort to intimidate them, which, you know, I had observed them doing at that point.
And since that point, and as we've heard more harrowing testimony, as more victims have taken the stand, their demeanor has shifted to maybe one that seems to be a bit more tense and less confident than a couple of weeks ago.
When you're seeing texts that you wouldn't otherwise be privy to talking about women in certain terms and procuring drugs, they must be thinking, maybe we don't know them as well as we thought.
Yeah, as I said a second ago, we've witnessed some very, very fiery exchanges between some of the witnesses and defence attorneys.
And some of those exchanges, you've seen jurors literally repelling in their seat, reacting to what's being said.
Which ones?
Yeah, one of those that really stands out to me was a woman who appeared under the pseudonym Bella Cavall.
And she alleges that she was attacked by Orin Alexander in the Hamptons in 2016.
So Tenny Geragos, who's an attorney for Oren Alexander, grilled Kaval over several hours during the second week of the trial.
And she kind of deviated from the more cordial tone that other defense attorneys had taken with other witnesses.
It was quite harsh, I would say.
