This is a small town police department not FBI's Quantico forensic crime lab. I would not be surprised in the least if the detective did a google search for "how to clip a video" and used the freeware from the first adsense link. I work with such departments for similar things and the extent of their knowledge is basically needing VLC or MPC-HD to open various video formats from cheap security camera footage provided to them by residents. Investigating famous Youtubers and evidence from their livestreams isn't really a common thing for local cops.

I would also not be surprised if the detective relied solely on a clip and then later the full video downloaded and provided by a 3rd-party viewer like Cog or PPP. It doesn't matter. If the video has been altered in any way Nick can demonstrate that in court with his own original copy. There's he reason he hasn't and only made vague insinuations.

I think it is also entirely irrelevant where either videos are actually from.

Pomplun has explained in detail that:
1) He was told there were indicators of drug use in a recent video
2) He went and watched the entire videos
3) He went and watched additional Crackieta videos

He comes to the conclusion, based on his training to recognize indicators of drug use in a person, that Nick was on drugs in the coke stream video and might have been using for multiple months prior.

And this is just ONE pillar the search warrant was based on.

And I think this is very strong and it is entirely irrelevant which channel the videos were uploaded on when Pomplun watched them.
He had reason to believe they were accurate copies of the coke stream when he watched them. The End.
Nick's argument dies right there, unless he wants to directly accuse Pomplun of falsifying evidence directly or someone (*cough* Aaron) providing a link to an altered video to frame Nick.

Question for the former drug users and reformed drug dealers.
Is there any legit reason for a user to own a fine scale and baggies?

Because every time I read a report I feel like someone could be charged with intent to distribute here and only Nick and Kayla have that option with their charge.
The statute covers both possession for personal use and intent to distribute.

You will see replies both ways. Sometimes druggies would want to doublecheck how much they get. And baggies can get accumulated over time.

(Druggies often refuse to throw out things like empty baggies.)

But just pointing out that Nick DID distribute. To Kayla and April. And under the law, I believe selling isn’t necessary to be charged with intent to distribute.

Under the law, it doesn’t matter if Pomploun somehow screwed up a watermark or copy.

He had to have KNOWINGLY lied about it, and the difference had to have been material. As in: Photoshopped cocaine traces or something like that. A watermark doesn’t cut it.

It's the county. They have standards of evidence set by the state for Sheriff, county prosecutor and judges as they are all from the same budget. They are going to specify video editing evidence software just like they specify drug labs. If it does unknown/weird things, it becomes chain of custody issue. They can't alter original without an expert to introduce it. When some clown bypassed the process in the Rittenhouse trial it was a huge issue.

 

[Kipersonapiscesotter]

The state reviewed the copy. They said as much when they said the clip that Pomplun submitted was created from the larger video Pomplun viewed. That means Pomplun's original video has the watermark.

If you read the prosecutor reply, the watermark is on a clip and the full video doesn't have it. The joy of trying to understand wtf Nick's lawyer is saying.

At these times I ask myself. Is the lawyer really that bad, or is he intentionally being vague with bad facts?

Question for the former drug users and reformed drug dealers.

For a milligram scale, there's jewellery, plus drugs / supplements that aren't controlled

The baggies will probably be a lot harder to explain, there's obviously legitimate uses for small ziploc bags, but if the police find them alongside cocaine, they'll put two and two together

And baggies can get accumulated over time.

(Druggies often refuse to throw out things like empty baggies.)

I'd assume that the police will differentiate between discarded used baggies and a package of clean ones. A dealer will have the latter, not the former

I can't wait till Nick is stuck doing livestreams with Boogie on lolcow live for rent money.

Stallyn clipped the Nick moments and other stuff from Sean's stream tonight.

Would recommend watching the original livestream though since the chat got pretty lit.

All the credit to Stallyn and all clippers, but this misses some of the drama. Perhaps @elb will do a long-form clip because it lasted well over an hour. By memory (no time to rewatch), it went like this.

My commentary is in blue, any quotes are paraphrased.

> Sean reviews the State's Memorandum in Opposition to Dismiss, often showing contradictions from Nick's motion. Sean was personal, biting, and acceptably mean - as is his brand of humor: 'Nick, bro, that's not how this works.'
> A chat asks Sean if he'd stop shitting on Nick for $100K. Sean says, 'OFC I would.'
> Sean's fiancee is heard. Sean and his fiancee banter about the humor of the proposition of $100K.
> Nick Superchats $100 with the weak Jimmy John's joke. Sean does not immediately see it. Chat starts erupting.
> Sean sees the Superchat and does a streamer version of an intervention. 'Bro, you have shit to work out.'
> Nick starts DMing Sean. Sean pauses to read and addresses whatever he says. The intervention continues. 'Get your house in order. Nick' etc.
> Fiancee reenters the drama and it appears to me that Nick somehow contacted Sean's fiancee to get on the stream.
> Sean pauses, goes off-screen for 2-3 minutes. WAS SEAN TALKING TO NICK OFF-SCREEN? I think so. It could have also been dog-related. Dog was acting up early on. It's a little unclear.
> Sean returns and says 'No, I will not let him on.' Sean's intervention continues. The point is that Nick wanted to join Sean's stream. That's obvious.
> Nick sends in the second Superchat about having lunch to save face.
> Nick stays in chat for the duration of the stream.

The chat tagging Nick for over an hour was a large part of the humor. Original stream here.

Edit: A typo

 

[Balldo's Gate]

Sean is smart for not letting him on. Nick would just attempt to cause strikes on Sean's channel.

Wait, did Nick actually want on and Sean said NO?

What the fuck?

Unbelievably anti-content move if so

Get Nick on and then have PPP join suddenly.

 

[Melty Butter]

Wait, did Nick actually want on and Sean said NO?

Yes. I'm 99% certain of that.

Unbelievably anti-content move if so

Agree, but on reflection, Sean was the bigger man. Sean deals with many addicts and has a day job (which he pointed out to Nick on the stream). He was in no mood to deal with his shit. It was a "boundaries" move.

The most devastating thing you can do to a narcissist is deny them attention, especially when they're demanding it.
There's also the possibility that Nick would do something extremely gay like saying/doing things that would get a content strike on Sean's channel.

Nick loves having a platform to play his word games and abuse anyone who calls him out. There's no reason why Sean should subject himself to Nick's bullshit on his stream. If Nick wants to cry and seethe he can do it on his own time.

 

[Captain Manning]

Maybe. But I agree and sympathize with his move here. He probably just doesn't want a cracked-out narcissist shitting up his stream and insulting his intelligence by trying gaslight him some more.

"SEAN! SEAAAAAN! LET ME ON SEAN! YOU ARE TELLING THE TRUTH SEAN! THE TRUTH IS BAD FOR ME! YOU ARE A COWARD FOR NOT ACCEPTING THE PROGRAMMING SEAN! I AM YOUR LAWPOPE! FUCK YOU SEAN! YOU ARE FAT SEAN! YOU NEED JENNY CRAIG SEAN! LET'S DO LUNCH SEAN!"

Fuck that noise.

 

[Canard]

Would you want to argue with very likely at least drunk lunatic on nice cozy stream you are having? You are finally reading something that doesn't want to make you pull your eyeballs out... And then you would need to listen Nick bickering and lying to do you without end? Yeah, I agree at least 500k for that...

 

[Dixieland Buckaroo]

Sean made a point about not going on Nick's stream since Nick yelled at him on stream. Sean said it wasn't even the worst chewing out he's sat through (and he was probably surfing the Farms while it happened), but it seems like Sean drew a line there. Sean's also made some questionable appearances and had on some dicey guests (The Gunt), but Sean has since said he'd not interact with The Gunt again.

Sean's fiancee said someone wants a link, and Sean's reaction was, "No, we're not doing that dumb shit." There was definitely some behind the scenes shit going on, but I don't know with who else. Could easily have been Gunt, Vito, Dick, any number of balldo lickers... Sean also sees an ethical responsibility as a lawyer, and allowing a drugged out Nick on wouldn't be a good look for Nick (much less Sean).

Like Sean said on stream, if Nick made an effort to improve himself (and likely acted contrite to Nick), I think a Sean/Nick stream could happen. But Sean isn't going to let the Balldo on just to be a cranked out asshole, even for views.

It would have been great content, but I can respect denying a NPD weirdo a platform.

The prosecutor says the clip is created from the full length copy Pomplun has. The clip has a watermark from a 3rd party channel. That's the version Pomplun watched. He didn't bother getting it from Nick's channel.

Pomplun's full-length version is from a different channel than Nick's. That's pretty clear. He's not using a version direct from Nick. He never said he did, though, and it's not necessary that he did.

 

[LanternsNSongs]

He has been the bigger man his whole life. Ask Dax or Nick about it.

Fat jokes aside I wonder if Nick realizes he is the easy target now. He can never get into a debate against someone without people mentioning "Dude didn't you give your kids coke?", the stigma will be there for the rest of his life. No matter who he is up against, he will be the one that is easier to make fun of.

Nick! Your cool guy card got revoked a while back. You are now just a child abusing cuckold.

The statute covers both possession for personal use and intent to distribute.

I feel like most households that cook/bake a lot or are health conscious would have a scale. Super handy for baking, making jams and shit, or weighing food if you're trying to track calories.
Although I'd be suspicious if the scale was super accurate, like if the scale was accurate to hundredths of a gram.
We know that Nick does none of those things so it's almost certainly used for shady shit.
I love my cheap scale, I make a lot bread and pastries and I find it's way easier to weigh stuff rather than go off volume for measurements.

Unrelated to cooking crack, but I think Baldo's weight loss diet is evidence of a suppressed appetite from stimulants. Much easier to lose weight using whole foods rather than high calorie processed slop as you can eat more, feel fuller while still coming in at a deficit. Rather than having your appetite nuked from coke and managing to choke down a couple chips in between lines and liquor.

 

[Annealing Crater]

I wonder why Nick seems so mad at Sean in particular? Ik he seethed hard at Legal Mindset but I don't think it was this hard. He doesn't seem to care about Uncivil Law and Nate the Lawyer's covering him.

Because Nick sees himself in Sean. He knows without a consistent coke hookup he'll balloon back up to a fat lil' piggy. He better learn to stick to the diet he has the kids on.
