somehow I love seeing cops feeling uncomfortable about answering questions that could reveal something they may have done wrong 😂

Whether YSL the gang exists or not it don't matter it's not illegal to be in a gang, what the state must prove here is that these guys did these petty crimes on behalf of the "gang" which is something they are failing to do. This case is definitely not a Rico they made a big deal out of nothing.

@betseyseptember2445 7 ай бұрын

"Not yet". Idk if they will or not. Juries are asked not to make their decision until ALL the evidence is heard, and there are weeks left in this trial. The prosecution's behavior with witness scheduling is unprofessional.

@christinebodhitreeexotics356 Ай бұрын

Apparently there are months left. I'm watching this six months behind you, and it's still not winding down. Crazy, right?!? At least I know what I'm getting myself into by starting this one. 😅@@betseyseptember2445

The judge is clearly biased

@goaliereids3523 7 ай бұрын

Absolutely outrageous that the state only gave defense counsel 24 hours notice to not only give access to question upcoming witnesses, but also to prepare for any cross examination. Planning, scheduling, and preparation is not their strong suit evidently. The remedy by the court should be exclusion for the said witnesses at a minimum for at least until time in which may facilitate preparation by the defense team. State is circumventing the right to a fair trial and due process for each defendant by not allowing their hired attorneys do their jobs properly. Guaranteed they’d be grieving to the court if the tables were turned and defense was doing this to them. This is just generating more substantive material for an appeal if these defendants are found guilty when everything is said and done.
