Rhonda Quagliana, out yesterday with an undisclosed illness, is still out during the defense part of the trial of former UVa lacrosse player George Huguely.
Her co-defense attorney, Fran Lawrence, said that he is fairly confident that he can proceed with the defense case in the murder trial. Both sides are looking to wrap their cases up by the weekend- and they'll work late into the night to get this done.
Here's the pick-up with Rachel Ryan outside the courtroom...
The main idea for working so late is that the judge, Edward Hogshire, doesn't want any lingering thoughts from jury members over a holiday weekend that may hinder their deliberations in the future if things dawdle until early next week.
