Apparently, the defense has found one grief counselor in the country who will testify that celebrations, including dancing, partying, drinking, getting a tattoo and such, is really just expressing grief.
Good grief.
Dr. Sally Karioth had 5 objections...all because she would not stop talking about herself, even though the questions were simple, requiring only a word or two to answer.
"I'm a certified traumatologist"
All 5 objections were sustained, as Dr. Karioth appears either unable, or unwilling to stop speaking of herself.
The state would like to move this along, as likely does the judge and the jury. Dr. Karioth seems to enjoy looking at the jury, talking about herself, and making lots of hand gestures.
The defense appears to be on its last witness, unless Casey Anthony is going to take the stand, and this may be their only way of telling the jury that Casey really wasn't celebrating Caylee's death. By dancing, drinking, buying things and even getting a celebratory tattoo, she was actually grieving. This is what the 'chicken soup for the soul' contributor is going to testify to.
Five objections on her background only.
Objection #5 and she hasn't even gotten to the case.
This can't be all that the Defense has. It is possible to find anyone to say anything in exchange for fame or fortune, or at least the possibility of such. This flakey pop-psychology has nothing to do with this murder case. It has become torturous to listen to.
Politely, Mike Galanos called her "eccentric" but the jury must remain awake.
In spite of the State's objection to her as an expert witness, Judge Perry is allowing her as an expert of "grief"
Judge Perry has bent over backwards for the defense.
Even Dorothy Sims had to interrupt her as she goes on and on in her answers. Dr. Karioth does not appear to be able to answer "yes" or "no" to a single question that calls for such an answer.

She also contributed to the Chicken Soup books.
Time for a second commercial break as Dr. Sally Karioth continues to talk about herself.
Some speakers make you cry, some speakers make you laugh and some speakers make you look at life differently. Dr. Karioth is a special speaker as she can make you do all three. Things she has learned as a nurse, teacher, talk show hostess and grief therapist. Dr. Karioth is a graduate of the Green Bay Bellin School of Nursing and a graduate of the University of Wisconsin, Madison. She has gone on to earn two Masters degrees and a PhD. Dr. Karioth has been on the faculty of FSU for 40 years and has taught over 35,000 students including being the mentor of Myron Rolle during his quest in obtaining a Rhodes Scholarship. She has won local state and national awards including at FSU an undergraduate teaching award and the Ross Oglesby award. She has been a contributor to the Chicken Soup book series and her own book called “If You Want to Know if You’re Dying Ask the Cleaning Lady” has sold over 85,000 copies. Active in trauma work she was one of the first people to go to the Pentagon following 911. Dr. Karioth says that every day you should have at least one exquisite moment; a theme she emphasizes on her speaking tours that cover over 25,000 miles worldwide each year. Since 1972 she has taught summers at the FSU campus in London and been a regular guest lecturer in the palliative care curriculum at the University of Gjovik in Gjovik, Norway. Her speeches are filled with rollicking anecdotes and poignant stories, so buckle your seat belts and prepare for a wild ride.
