Rekieta has had good lawyers on his panel throughout this trial, but most of the current panel are random no names who make a living in large part off of youtube, with the exception of legalbytes, who was a pretty standard gunner until she decided to become a pop culture youtube lawyer. Nate, Barnes, and Ron Coleman are the ones with the best background.
nothing has been guaranteed during the whole trial despite both sides saying otherwise.
I'm no lawyer but my own experience with countless right-wing extremely online nerds engaging in Monday Morning Quarterbacking of Trump's decisions, often tainted with their obvious misunderstandings of how much power an outsider President in direct opposition to the DC establishment actually has, makes me sympathetic to your view that the Rekieta Law Panel consists of egotists nitpicking for self-aggrandizement. Legal Bytes has a sexy voice and I'd like to see her in the tank top / shorts combo she mentioned wearing when talking about the cold weather to play devil's advocate for Ahmaud Arbery being shirtless, but other than that I don't get that much value from these livestreams.
From the start, Judge was very forthright about wanting this to be a beacon of the judicial branch, to raise confidence with the public. If anything i think we can agree with the BLM crowd that the judicial system is corrupt.
I've been listening to them on and off. What's most amazing to me is how quickly I can be turned off by someone's attitude. Most people on the panel are fine but GoodLawgic or Joe or w/e his name is I find to be so annoying that I tune out whenever he's talking even if I should agree with his interpretation. It just highlights how important it is to present yourself in a way that doesn't piss people off even if you're right.
The right to self defense is restored after provocation if he retreats. So the jury has to ask themselves if running for dear life until being cornered counts as retreating.
So you're a boring a-logging faggot? Cool beans seething bum.
Considering two of the charges are already dropped anyone who's still on "guilty on all charges" already lost
At this point I suspect one of two things is going on. Either a couple guilty jurors are trying to drag this out with questions, or the rest of the jurors are beating them over the head with video evidence. I'm losing confidence that a verdict gets delivered today at the pace things are happening.
I like having them there to explain the legalese stuff AFTER the fact but holy fuck the nobody lawyers are so irritating. When the judge was speaking earlier they would not shut the fuck up trying to get their LEL EPIC FUNNY JOKES out instead of letting us hear what the judge is saying and THEN explain what's going on. So now I have another tab open of just the court feed so I can actually hear what's happening.
