I need to go somewhere so it appears if the opening statements start this afternoon, I will have to watch via the archives later tonight.
Perhaps someone will post a direct link if the "live stream" starts later today.
Court is suppose to be back in session at 2 pm EST. Almost that time!
I'd be happy to post the live link once it's available. And you're very welcome (from your earlier post)!

Posted 11:53 a.m. today
Updated 2:37 p.m. today
Raleigh, N.C. — After five days of jury selection, opening statements were underway Monday afternoon in the first-degree murder trial of a Raleigh woman accused of killing of her husband's ex-girlfriend more than two years ago and dumping her dismembered body in a Texas creek.
Amanda Hayes, 41, is one of two people Raleigh police have implicated in the July 13, 2011, death of Laura Jean Ackerson, a 27-year-old Kinston woman who had dated Hayes' husband, Grant Hayes, and was the mother of two of his children.
Wake County prosecutors and defense attorneys had seated 12 jurors and three alternates as of Monday morning.

Thanks Curious, ishi and Ales for the updates.
Wow, Ales! You have the trial testimony videos posted here and I won't even have to go to WRAL to listen to them. Thanks so much.
I forgot to charge my cordless headphones and they are charging now. I like to listen to trials with them because I don't have to stay by my computer. I can move around within 100 plus feet from my computer.
I hope to listen to these videos later tonight.

for opening statements in her trial for first-degree murder
in the death of her husband’s ex-girlfriend. SCOTT SHARPE — @newsobserver.com
RALEIGH — Amanda Hayes, a former actress in the U.S. Virgin Islands, did not have a speaking part during the opening of her murder trial in Wake County Superior Court on Monday.
Her attorney, Johnny Gaskins, a Wake County lawyer, did the talking as he laid out the 41-year-old mother’s broad-stroke defense to the nine women and three men on the jury.
Gaskins contends Hayes is on trial in a tragedy that has three main characters, whom the attorney described as two victims and a “sociopath” who injured both females.
Snipped:
Prosecutors plan to present their case as one that focuses little on “who struck the fatal blow,” and more on what they contend was a married couple acting together to kill a woman with whom they were embroiled in a bitter custody dispute, then hide her death.

Amanda Hayes trial - 1/27/14 article
Defense outlines strategy in murder case
By Wes Wolfe / Staff Writer
Kinston Free Press - Kinston, NC
Published: Monday, January 27, 2014 at 19:10 PM.
RALEIGH — Defense counsel for Amanda Perry Hayes said Monday she was unaware of Laura Jean Ackerson’s dismembered remains being in a bathroom in her apartment for days after Ackerson’s death.
In his opening argument, attorney Johnny Gaskins said Hayes was involved in neither the murder nor responsible for the disposal of Ackerson’s remains in a Texas creek in 2011.
Snipped:
Gaskins then said for the next three days, Amanda Hayes had no idea what happened to Ackerson or that her body, sawed into seven pieces, remained in the bathroom.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gaskins' crock of crap won't fly with the jury. JMO
The spin and the "defense" that Amanda Hayes is using is almost laughable except it involves the brutal murder of Laura Ackerson. I wonder if Grant is following this trial via local news on TV or newspaper. Defense has not painted a very nice picture of Grant!
The Hayes' did not live in a huge mansion. It is an insult for Gaskins to say, in that small apartment, that Amanda Hayes did not know that Ackerson's sawed up body was in the bathroom. Please!!!
I firmly believe that Amanda Hayes assisted Grant Hayes and cutting Laura Ackerson into pieces and cleaning up the bloody mess. Perhaps they got some kind of thrill from doing this. Sick, sick, sick to cut up a body, haul it over 1200 miles to TX and then dump it in Oyster Creek.
I think Grant and Amanda thought if they dumped Laura's body parts in Oyster Creek in TX that if one day the parts were found, they would be so decomposed that ID would be perhaps impossible. The assumption would be that TX law enforcement would be trying to ID a murder victim from TX and not NC.
I do believe that Grant and Amanda planned the murder of Laura. Grant lured her to his apartment by using a visitation with the two boys.
I think Grant knew that custody of the boys would probably be awarded to Laura because she certainly did all of the right things and/or required things in an effort to gain custody of her two boys.
I think Amanda was probably very jealous of Laura and she probably was furious that Grant would have to pay child support for his two boys if Laura was awarded custody.
Grant probably would rather have seen Laura dead than have to pay child support.
The sad part is the tragic, gruesome murder of Laura and the fact that her two boys will have to grow up without their mother and won't even have their sociopath father, Grant. Perhaps it is good that Grant will not be in the boy's lives. He is one evil dude.
It does disturb me that Grant's mother is raising these boys. She raised Grant . . . look how he turned out!
All of the above is just my opinon; nothing more.

Prosecution works to show conflict with Ackerson in Amanda Hayes trial
Updated at 12:34 PM today - 1/28/14
WTVD - Raleigh, NC
Snipped:
Prosecutors spent the morning trying to show that Amanda Hayes had a testy relationship with the mother of her husband's two oldest children.
Prosecutors say Amanda and her husband Grant - aka Grant Haze - killed 27-year-old Laura Ackerson at their Raleigh apartment in July 2011 during a long-running custody dispute over the kids.
Snipped:
Tuesday morning, an SBI agent who searched Ackerson's apartment read from Ackerson's diary about friction with Amanda.
"She scolded me in front of my children. I found it off-putting. I told her I was concerned about her frequent negative emotional outbursts towards me in front of Grant IV and Gentel," read SBI Agent Lolita Chapman.

Amanda Hayes
Raleigh, N.C. — As Wake County prosecutors worked Tuesday to portray Amanda Hayes as a wife who was angry and resentful toward the woman she is accused of killing, defense attorneys put forth their own image of their client's husband, who they say controlled and manipulated her to the point that she was forced to help him get rid of the body.
Snipped:
It was July 18, 2011, when Schumacher said she learned that Ackerson was missing.
"I dropped to my knees and started bawling," she recalled. "I sat in shock for about 12 hours because I knew she was dead."

Call log shows history of animosity between Hayes, Ackerson
By Wes Wolfe / Staff writer
Kinston Free Press - Kinston, NC
Published: Tuesday, January 28, 2014 at 12:33 PM.
RALEIGH – A call log by murdered former Kinston resident Laura Jean Ackerson showed her significant concerns about her children and Amanda Perry Hayes’ anger toward her.
Hayes is on trial for the first-degree murder of Ackerson in 2011 and accessory after the fact. Her husband, Grant, was convicted of first-degree murder in the case in September.
State Bureau of Investigation Special Agent Lolita Chapman said during an initial observation of Ackerson’s apartment, investigators seized her computer and the call log, which began with the date of Aug. 11, 2010.

WTVD & WRAL "live" stream Links for 1/30/14
Video of court in session . . . . now streaming. Testimony not started yet though.
Update: Per Judge Stephens court recessed until attorney's show up. Apparently, Hayes' attorneys have not showed up yet. Judge Stephens said he was there yesterday and they could have called. Hhmmm, I bet Judge Stephens is not a happy camper!
State seal of NC now showing. I guess we will have to check back to see when defense attorneys will show up. The Prosecution attorneys are there.

Amanda Hayes murder trial resumes with irritated judge
Updated at 12:40 PM today
RALEIGH (WTVD) -- A clearly irritated Superior Court Judge Donald Stephens chastised Amanda Hayes' defense team Thursday morning when they didn't show up on time.
Lawyers said there had been a miscommunication over when court would begin following a day off caused by the winter weather, but Stephens told them he was "disappointed they weren't more proactive" about finding out when court would start - pointing out everyone else - including the jury - knew when to show up.
After the delay, testimony resumed with Hayes' daughter Sha Guddat on the stand.

Sha Elmer interview with WTVD (Raleigh, NC) from August, 2011
This is an old article from 2011 about the interview Sha, Amanda's daughter, did after visiting Amanda in jail.

WTVD - Raleigh, NC -- 8/5/11
Woman defends her accused mother
Friday, August 05, 2011
Snipped:
ABC11 asked, "Did anything about Grant Hayes kind of raise a red flag to you? Or did you just, you just felt comfortable around him?"
"I just felt comfortable around him," Elmer said. "He was a musician, and I was fascinated and I think a lot of what it was -- me and my mom were both very fascinated.
That fascination quickly turned into something more and Amanda and Grant married in Vegas last year.
When asked if Elmer ever saw Grant angry, aggressive or if he spoke to her mom in an abusive way, she said "no."

Hayes felt trapped, wanted to leave husband, daughter says

during her first-degree murder trial. (Chad Flowers/WRAL)
Raleigh, N.C. — Weeks before the death of Laura Ackerson, the 24-year-old daughter of Amanda Hayes found her mother – eight months pregnant – sitting on the floor in the bathroom of her Raleigh apartment, bawling and talking about leaving her husband but also feeling trapped with nowhere else to turn.
"She said, 'I don't want to be a single mom at 40, and I'm scared, and there's no money,'" Sha Guddat testified Wednesday in her mother's first-degree murder trial. "'There's no way he could take care of our kids, and he doesn't need to have those boys, if I'm not here.'"

After the jury was dismissed today, I wonder if Judge Stephens told the Defense attorneys that court will be in session tomorrow at 9:30 am EST and to please have their butts there on time. lol
