I have huge respect for Judge Simpson, however, your point is moot - the case will (now) be heard before Judge Burke; I did wonder why Defense Counsel first asserted that August the first would be ok, then backtracked. In the matter of Homicide - irrespective as to whether you're the prime suspect or an accessory after the fact - both parties are involved with the taking of a human life, & to that end, $25,000 cash bond is more than reasonable; given that the defendant is in custody, I wonder how tolerant her employer will be (after the fact) ?

She wasn`t accessory PLUS transported the accused away , she`a an accessory BECAUSE she transported the accused away . That was HOW she was an accessory . lol

@@davidhaney1394​⁠It seems Judge Simpson disagrees. He is including other factors in the accessory after the fact charge, her presence at the scene of the shooting and having the guns, not just the transportation. No lol required. I’m a little surprised the prosecution did not include another, more serious, charge as the top count.

It depends somewhat on state law, but generally, if you were present on the scene with the murderer, you were involved. Unless you can convince the court that the murder was a spontaneous, unplanned thing that surprised you just as much as it did the victim and you were just in the wrong place at the wrong time in the company of the wrong person. Sounds to me like the accessory part might have been a plea deal (possibly because she assisted in convicting the hands-on participant). Clear accessory-after-the-fact would be, for example, if the murderer ran from the scene to your door, told you about the murder, and you gave him a getaway ride.

@@davidhaney1394 She was an accessory BECAUSE she was there at the time the shooting took place.

In a lot of States, she would have the same charges as the person who pulled the trigger if she was there.

Hey everybody's got chores

Lmao! I know right! I thought the exact same thing.

Laundry probably gives it better acoustics

The charge is murder.

I agree

She was not involved, she's an accessory after.

So the Judge decides that the verdict will be murder before he sets bond.

So in other words a person is guilty before proven innocent?

@@KNByam IN IL you are sentenced to lose your license, in a DUI case, for six months before you ever see a Judge. In reality there are MANY cases in which a person is treated as guilty before proven innocent. I was there to watch it for 30 yrs.

Same where I live. Also police and fire company. It’s scary.

To me , he sounds like Fred Sanford/ of Sanford and son

Smaller communities just aren't set up to handle multiple simultaneous emergencies. It happens.

@@lamwen03 Yeah, I agree completely. Sometimes it's tragic, but in this case it wouldn't have made a bit of difference.

CPR is of limited effectiveness. It buys a little time, but damage to the heart and brain will still occur. You need a defibrillator and probably a large dose of adrenaline to get to heart going again. Once you have that, trauma surgeons can do miracles these days. Your chances after going into cardiac arrest from a gun shot wound aren't good, but they aren't zero.

@@thomasdalton1508 And somone with 4 bullets in him is not someone whose heart and lungs just stopped from shock, which is what CPR can overcome. He's physically massively damaged.

No one knows that.

Most ambulance are more than 2 minutes away.

In Ireland ambulances are 30 minutes away or more

Same rural UK

Just letting you know I find you to be a very pretty young lady. 😎 That's all.

AMEN to comment regarding Otis Culpepper! She's young, pretty and he likes her!

@lindawhite5006 I feel like he was disrespectful towards her and talked down to her. He interrupted Judge Simpson whom I love, and he just seemed a bit sloppy.

Yeah, young people do stupid things, not thinking about the future or the big picture. If this is the kind of 'friend' you're willing to be, you'll go down with your friends.

That was her choice and choices have consequences!

Yes!! I can hear "what a wonderful world"...

Start a petition let’s see how far it go since this country only care about what YOU want and not what we have been ASKING for for DECADES! We would prefer to have our OWN police department, fire department and hospitals! You probably don’t know or don’t remember but when we achieved these things in the past your relatives burned the towns to the ground. We were “taking care of ourselves” JUST FINE until your relatives came and burned entire cities to the ground - OH!! And some of them they turned into Man made lakes - Lake Lanier comes to mind.

To the crater of this page - you liked this comment?? Are you racist too!?

@@MzYumYum Do you know that90% of all murders in the black community are committed by people who live in that community. There were 60 people shot in Chicago in June. 58 of the 60 shooter were black, 2 hispanic. Black men make up less than 3% of the population but commit 68% of all homicides.. Don't blame the police, they shoot white people at 3x's the rate they shoot a black person.. 3% commit 68% of murders... that says it all. If people were selling drugs on any street corner in my city, the people would take care of the problem.

@@MzYumYum My Irish Relatives who came here a endentured servitudes ? Which is the exact thing slaves were. Until a black man went to court and the blqck man was the first person to own a slave in America. 90% of slaves that were shipped out went to Mexico. Only 2% of the entire american population ever owned a slave and the slaves did nothing for the countries economy as they accounted for less than 3% of the GDP. Thats why there were no economical problems when the white men freed the slaves. CURRENTLY THERE ARE 9.2 MILLION SLAVES IN AFRICA.. SLAVERY IS ALIVE AND WELL IN AFRICA !

I thought you misspelled Ammon Bundy's name

He's not that naive. This isn't so different from haggling over a used car, where the seller *knows* the car isn't going to sell for the $8k ask, and the buyer *knows* the car isn't going to sell for the $5k offer -- but those are the opening positions to get to the $6.5k final price.

Hope so!

He's an idiot!!!! Rocking back and forth like he's at an amusement park.

He may be set in his ways, but understands his limits!

I appreciate that!

They may be waiting for additional evidence to be reviewed (doorbell came, fingerprints, etc) or reluctant witnesses to be interviewed. As long as they have enough evidence to justify a charge that will have a high bond, there is less urgency to charge. A

@@MegsCrimeWatch he has like four or five Facebook accounts and also he has a few Sovereign citizen Court trials that I just saw

Is it the same Angelo Weems that tried to pull the Sovcit argument in the past and almost got a bench warrant? 🤔

​@@us421retreadThe lawyers aren't testifying. They weren't witnesses to the alleged crime. The prosecutor just repeats what the police wrote on the affidavit - the affidavit contains a signed declaration equivalent to an oath.

Lawyers always mention only those facts that help their case. That's their job.

@@us421retread Lawyers can certainly be held accountable for lying to a court. It's contempt and it is professional misconduct. They can be sanctioned for it. It isn't perjury, though.

@@us421retread Take a look at some of lawyers that were going to court claiming election fraud in the 2020 presidential election. Some of them have been sanctioned for making claims in court that they knew were completely unsupported by evidence. Some of them have even lost their law licences. None of them have gone to prison, though.
