@@paddyholly2184 The Brunswick D.A. at the time and she is currently under indictment. There was a second prosecutor who recused himself, and it was at that point that the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (and this agent) got involved, although there had not yet been any arrests or a public announcement of prosecution. It was at that point that the video was leaked-that seemed to put pressure on the Georgia AG to appoint a prosecutor.

It’s a old school lawyer trick. Say things that sound like questions, Hoping the witness say certain things. But the agent caught on and started to ask him “was that a question?”

He appears to be testifying.

That's the way a majority of criminal defense attorney's operate; they make a statement and then add a little inflection at the end to make it sound like a question. In my experience, I have never answered a statement like that on the stand. I always make them restate it like a question, After the tenth time, the judge usually tells the attorney to ask questions directly.

It’s not a old trick. The word play whoever is referring to goes beyond what he’s doing here. In this case, he’s, albeit with unusual confidence, he’s simply rehashing an interview of the GBI agent. Since he does already know the answers that’s how the law requires those types of questions as it somehow “paints a pic” for the jury, and of extreme importance helps remove open ended questions (open is where we start doing the word play)… ..During a deposition. But the depo cannot be used as evidence itself in court unless the witness dies prior to the trial or somehow becomes incapacitated as depo are used to preserve their testimony like I mentioned. The old school tricks is just not what it is. It’s just legal, I don’t wanna say jargon, but it kinda is since it’s a way of speaking in the court. If you watch most trials they’ll ask this the same ways (prosecution as well) but normally they don’t stutter and act all fake confident for having a JC PENNY law degree, like how folks on the Internet who’ve never worked in criminal defense” -atty with 42 years exp crim law, in GA. The guy has a shit reputation from what I hear.

@@CineGisticMedia well from your statement you’ve been given false information because he’s only been practicing law for 35 years. So go back to whoever told you 42 years and give them an ear full of this nonsense. It’s definitely an old school lawyer trick, because new lawyers ask questions and not statements that sound like questions. I work in the OJAG office (military court) in Michigan and this is a stunt all the old officers use.

racist lawyer, dont insult mr bean lol

Well said 👏🏾

I'm thinking that all law enforcement officers should adopt standards of professional conduct, and just observing this guy doing his job would provide 90% of it.

It may well be that GBI provide training for their agents to testify. That makes them professional.

His testimony should be used to train people how to testify

I have been in trials before and you are correct. Answer the question and nothing else. Short and sweet.

I do see how with everything going on it is in the best interest of his clients to keep anyone of color out of the court room, doesn't mean it isn't a racist thing to do. He should know better than that, I am appalled at the attorneys actions...

I was experiencing vicarious embarrassment for Gough throughout this entire trial.

I was watching the trial live on TV, and this bozo attorney and his “cross examination” drove me so crazy, I turned off the TV. Wow….I wouldn’t pay him to get me out of a parking ticket!

It’s a typical cross examination, from my experience, except for how the counsel phrases his questions… as statements. That’s a very poor way of conducting a trial. His “questions” were very leading.

@@goowoomoo He’s not a “bozo attorney”. He had a case that was practically impossible to win.

The agent more than held his own. I though it was hilarious to watch Gough try to ask what he thought was an ambiguous or trick question. The agent always carefully listened then responded. I loved it when he would ask Gough "Is that a question?" Smooth!

good point

Ikr, I was like your defendant is claiming the same thing blaming the victim for his death because he didn't stop and talk to them/answer their questions

Good point

Will Get Better Eventually you’re 100% correct.

Why are you amazed? The practice of law has less to do with shining a light on the truth than it does organizing the information in the best way to help your client. Sometimes that overlaps with the truth but his clients were guilty af so of course he’s gonna be full of shit.

I feel you xman and agree 1000%... but lets be honest, it IS Ahmaud's trial here... hes the one getting his history dragged beneath the mud in the public, and the Defenses entire fuckin point is gonna be that He somehow DESERVED his own murder... so it IS ahmaud's trial... fuckin sad as hell but its the country we live in.

It is very strange as the other highly publicised case happening at the same time is being called the "Kyle Rittenhouse" trial. One focuses on the victim, the other on the accused. Makes you wonder who decides what each case is named. Its probably for simplicity (laziness) ie. Adbury v 3 defendants and Rittenhouse v 3 victims 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hell, half of the "questions" weren't even questions, but statements.

@@Subangelis A terrible cross-examination. The jury has just seen more of this credible and professional witness that they otherwise would have. And nothing was accomplished.

Actually I caught him answering a non-question @0:40 and @3:57 :) But overall I agree.

The word is expound.

Agree, I admit to watching the cross examination a few times as this agent was so so smooth, and Gough was such a countryfied dope trying so hard to trip up the agent. I am sure the agent charmed the heck out of William Roddie Bryant into thinking he was his friend. The agent was taking it all in, then, Bryant was arrested 😳.

@@drebk What types of questions?? "I don't think that's a quote but there were more media... I'm a uh I'll move on."

Exactly!

I play one on TV thing

Well put.

I think he's trying to make the GBI agent flustered by the half questions/half statements and strange line of questioning, and thus look less credible. But the defense attorney failed miserably and ultimately looked like a buffoon.

A desperate one

He's paying for this representation on top of it.

It appears that he and his client have something in common.

This attorney would say just about anything if he believed it helped his client's case. To be fair, I would rather the nation think my client is a dummy than a murderer

True ... I remember an interviews on CNN shortly after Bryan's arrest. Gough was lawyering (and defending) his client even then. It was a bit surprising but this seems to be his style.

Im beginning to think the defense attorney's are cat fishing us

It looks like the defense needed the judge from the Rittenhouse trial to help them out.

They had no defense for this murder

It always makes me smile when disgusting wastes of DNA like these defendants get the lawyers they deserve! 😁

Apparently that whole town if you let that lawyer tell it

I promise we are not all like these idiots! These people are absolutely an embarrassment

@@krrris11231 I live about an hour away. We know some people are like this and some of us are not. But this lawyer basically called his clients dumb and they had to stand there and take it. This is not an easy case for him to win.

It seems it has failed MOST of GA! We are looking at the crème de la crème! It’s downhill from here!

Opened up? They were never closed and America never progressed- mentally. Some people thought that legislative changes were equivalent to psychosocial changes and racial acceptance. We know that beliefs cannot be changed by laws being changed. People have hatred in their hearts and sickness in their minds and wear it as badge of honor and pride. This was kept (relatively) quiet from the 1960s , until it was unleashed and made socially acceptable again over the past decade. It is unsustainable.

Not at all!! Racism will never cease. No need to expect it too. Certain people can kill and it’s ok because “ yea” it must be a reason. Pure insanity

Blame it on democrats and liberals. a large portion of Americans of all backgrounds don't agree with any racial supremacy. Fuck white supremacy and fuck black supremacy or any racial supremacy. but on the other side you have main stream media and liberals who pander and allow black supremacy to happen. Or any events that deal with a white and black person as become some how racially motivated but by the main stream media only white to black and not the other way around. You can see this when people claim black people cannot be racist. mainstream media is just pushing and pushing a narrative basically lumping all or most white Americans to being racist if you don't agree with certain topics

@@coolmanjr380 what pile of shite are you talking about… White history hasn’t asked for forgiveness to the horrific events to the native Indians let alone atrocities over the last 400 years to the blacks.

At some point the guy had to change lawyers unless he’s just as dumb

Kevin Gough is his name, he's known in our city (Brunswick GA) with an excellent track record as a public defender before starting his private practice. He's very confrontational and controversial, and this is a charged trial for obvious reasons so people trash him, but at the end of the day he's just doing his job

True, he seemed to think the rules were different for FBI agents.

The 5th amendment protects one against self-incrimination. It doesn’t shield a witness from testifying. In this case, the defendant participated in a crime, and he could have invoked his 5th amendment right from the moment the cops showed up (or any time afterwards). If he had truly been merely a witness, the courts could have compelled him to testify.

@@MarcosElMalo2 exactly

🙄🙄He is the murder victim. The person who should be remembered by name. And, if you think that anyone is confused about that fact, you are foolish.

@iamdebster No, you are likely quite foolish. Trials are for the ACCUSED and it should be named as such. Yes, people DO get confused. Should it be called the Susan White trial or TED FUCKING BUNDY? Who is Susan? Yep. That’s the point … just an example for the fools out there who can’t think past two minutes of news and lack cognitive reasoning skills. Glad you’re not a lawyer … or this dumb fuck dude would be you 🙄🙄 (I can use that emoji, too)! Trials are The People vs SUSPECT, not the presumed victim. @mrhomes204 is correct.

@@DuskyJewel Wow. Somebody sure needs a Snickers bar. Anyway...the fact that most folks don't know the names of Bundy's victims means little. He was a notorious serial killer...of course his name will be the "headline." However, there have been many criminal trials where the victim's name was far more prominent than the defendants. And, yes, there was ZERO confusion about who was the bad guy. More importantly, no one got their panties all bunched up in a wad over it. Did anyone ever refer to the Richard Davis trial? No, it was the Polly Klaas trial. It was always the Rodney King trial. The case was never referred to by the names of the cops charged. Was it the Derek Chauvin trial or the George Floyd trial? Hmmm... The Manson case was regularly referred to as the Tate-La Bianca murders. And, if they were to ever find her killer, it will be referred to as the JonBenet Ramsey trial rather than the defendant's name. These are just a few of the really famous ones that came to mind. Finally, I doubt that Armery's mother is upset in any way that the media is using her son's name when describing the trial. That his name is regularly being broadcast over the news and various court TV shows. That he is being remembered by name rather than as just another anonymous murder victim. But, hey, I guess you'd rather have the defendants get that notoriety.
