Lefty will apparently be taking the stand Monday. Also Pedobaum's girlfriend.
For the girlfriend, prosecution will have to walk on eggshells surrounded by landmines not to introduce character evidence about Pedobaum, because at that point the defense can rebut that evidence. Oh he was in a mental hospital because of a suicide attempt? Oh, he beats you? Wait a second, did you know about his convictions for raping little boys?
Lefty might be interesting, and I think it'll backfire on the prosecution.
Why did you draw your gun?
I heard this kid had shot people and saw his gun. I was in fear for my life.
So seeing a potentially hostile person with a gun would put you in fear for your life and compel you to defend yourself with deadly force?
