Inmate spars with defense attorney 

@Falcon Everyone, including you, knew that the prosecutor was purposefully patronizing the witness and thats why he was not reprimanded by the judge. Silver spoon had a little power trip and clearly the judge had enough of it, and I guarantee she doesn't like the price either. Once she saw that the witness was intelligent enough to go back at him in a way that was still respectful to the courtroom, she knew the fun was about to begin and let it happen. Just because they are on 2 different sides of the criminal system at rhat moment, doesn't make prosecutor's antics right or acceptable.

@Falcon LOL ok...

Infantile or not, he has to ask the question if he wants that fact entered into evidence. He can’t just skip the “infantile” question and ask the judge/jury to presume this witnesses has been disciplined in prison.

@Falcon thats because there's no respect anymore and he's an idiot who spent 24 years in jail and probably the rest of his life stupid people are always smart ass

@@mrheath4928 24 years in prison now facing even more for more crime he was intelligent enough isn't even close to the argument he was a smart ass which you were not allowed to be in the judge probably wanted to move on with the case I doubt she was empathetic to his superior intelligence..... His and silver spoon who said he didn't have to work hard become an attorney? Just like the guy about to go to jail stupid people are always offended by those who better themselves

Archimedes Blackhearr true

Didn’t hear that last part did ya? Where he said “you only have 12 months left.. and that only happened after you testified against mr ___..” dude snitched and is going home for doing it 😉

@@Halfstep2024 word they're dumb

The way he said 24 like it was nothing

Idiot attorney

So is Gary Glitter.

Bruh....Thinking the saaaameame thing....I

Doesnt look or sound like him

lmao! funniest comment of the week for me!

right but it's alright

The lawyer is someone else's defense atty

@Dillon Chappell, your response is as ignorant as your profile pic... The guy on the stand is a witness and being questioned by a defendant's attorney

OK bootlicker

I'm not the one who supports jackboots that enforce every law on the books. Mind you that these laws were written by politicians, often referred to as crooks, thieves and liars....

Yeah, but only because the lawyer let him. If he was actually all there, instead of just physically present, he could've just turned to the judge and went: "You honor, please instruct the witness to answer." And she almost certainly would've done so - she allowed the question "Did you state, you WOULD have murdered them for the right amout of money?", so why would she not allow the question "What is that amount?" Lazy examination...

@@QemeH the guy is right tho, why should it matter? $5 or $5,000,000,000 it's still murder.

@@Yfrboy The lawyer is trying to establish that the motive was greed (rather than envious rage or something). That's a way to get a first degree over a second degree.

@@QemeH he already said "for the right amount" why would that amount matter? I see it as the lawyers way of saying how little life was worth to the guy....if he would have said, "$250" it would mean he was willing on killing for $250, which might shock some people more than if he had said $100,000. (I think the guy was right not to answer as money's worth is subjective.... To a rich person $10,000 is not a lot whereas to a homeless guy that's a fortune.)

@@Yfrboy You're arguing ethics, I'm arguing law...

The inmate telling a free person to think about their choices ..... lol

@@carshenaeunicebaker1964 He's had a lot more time to think about real shit than that silly lawyer :)

This is not his defense attorney. This attorney sounds like a little kid... "he's answering questions with other questions , wahhh" Obviously dude must of turned state on someone and is now getting released, this must be that someone's attorney. And that someone is in hot water if that articulate inmate had info on him, and that bozo attorney is defending him.

I guess they didn’t have time to prepare for his testimony. Or, the imbecile defendant can’t tell the difference between a prosecutor and his defense lawyer.

@@DrummerJacob Is that why he is a free man with a stable job living in a mansion, while the attorney is just a miserable inmate that is disrespected and told what to do by CO’s?

Retired lawyer/retired judge here, I agree.

I'm not even sure I would call him hostile

There is such a thing as verbal sparring.

Nice reference LOL

Maybe it's because I'm Irish.

@@mikekopf1173 Because to tell you truth,I don't really give a dam.

Why is Samuel L. Jackson being questioned by this lawyer? I guess Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown were not pretend movies after all.

the judge is a coward who did not control the witness/courtroom.

he should've replied, you ever had a speeding fine in 24 years or less of driving?

It happens literally all the time. This man did 24 years and has zero chance of receiving any retribution from “snitching”. Js

@@r.c.l2569 funny thing is, most people only care when the snitch is weaker than them. I’m not talking physical size. If they know that someone is a killer, then they will not try him. Especially 24 years. Not only that, snitching goes on *ALL THE TIME IN JAIL!* that’s how most people stay in the county, or have good lawyers. Even in state prison and federal, people snitch all the time, and for no reason sometimes.

i still dont get it. can you elaborate?

@@r.c.l2569 not only that, most people don’t do anything to snitches UNLESS it affects them.

@@r.c.l2569 He was recently convicted in this matter he got life with no parole plus 20-30 for the rape. He is never getting out.

She smiled at his response.

America's prisons are full with people who got nothing to lose...Thats why they are so violent, also for the people who work in them...you guys never hear " when you treat people like animals, they act like animals" ? Your justice system is nothing but a joke..it's that simple..

No. That is an illusory freedom. Prisoners and unhoused people are not free. Prisoners are told what to do, how to do it, and where to do it. Unhoused people have to get enough money each day to eat or face going to bed hungry. Sound free to you? Yeah, both groups of people can poop their pants everyday in that level of freedom if they want. They can rip their pants off and call themselves the King of England too! But the prisoner will be sent to solitary. The unhoused person will probably have found it more difficult to get the money needed to purchase a sandwich in that attire... So, there is no true, unadulterated freedom. There is only the illusion of pure freedom.

this dude raped a 16 year old, nice sticking up for him

It's actually the attorney's job to formulate the questions in such a way as to minimize the latitude the witness has to go afield and not answer the question directly. If you give a convict an opening, he's for damn sure going to take it - that's what they do all day long in prison.

Honestly it looks like this man had spent stone time reading up on law. He knows the right answers and when he can push back without getting into trouble. Even knew he didnt have to answer about what someone else saw

Wrong he was a hostile witness and the judge is a joke for letting him act that way. A real judge will correct it

This was his defense counsel.

@@usa5439 It’s a lawyer’s job to be able to know what kind of witness you’re dealing with some are supportive to your case some are neutral some are hostile. This witness was hostile yes, but that’s when a smart lawyer asks the right questions to get the right answers. That’s the difference between getting ahead of the game vs chasing behind it.

Totally agree

Because it is not the responsibility of the judge to object to someone’s testimony. The judge will only intervene when counsel objects to testimony. Because of this, it’s 100% bad lawyering.

If you think that you need your head examined. Judge is allowing the witness to be a clown

You do realize a prosecuting attorney is still an attorney, right?

@@AllAmericanGuy01 You do realise the title says "defense attorney" right?

@@Neverod8doreveN No

@@AllAmericanGuy01To be fair, the original commenter assumes the inmate is the defendant. Which is incorrect. Read the description as well as the title. ;)

AllAmericanGuy01 go back to sleep lol

Yo mamma lamr

She should be fired! Let’s find her name and remove her from civil service.

@Jill and Soph Hobes I’m looking at this like where is he going with this, even the judge was like what the fuck is this shit here

But the man is still guilty

🤨

The sandal/sock combo was lit in the nineties.

@southern daze hey dipshit, every person that has been placed on the registry, convicted or accused are not always guilty or bad people. How do you know it was a pedophile case anyway? Was he touching children sexually that were under 13? That is the only way a person could be a pedophile, is for 13 and younger, pedophilia is the sexual desire for pre pubescent children!!!

22mrranger ur right so when u see or meet someone that is registered just assume they’re not guilty

@@craigsejda7157 take a buddy of mine, ex wife told the cops he touched the 2 kids, then he is arrested, they do an investigation after his arrest, doesnt make sense does it. They questioned the kids, they say dad never touched them, no evidence of any sexual assault or even activity on either one, then, he spends a year in jail, he goes to trial with no evidence against him and everything against the ex wife and the prosecution. He is convicted of his charges all off of a story, then had to register, looses his kids, custody, and job. He looses everything, then 6 years later, after he did 3 in prison the rest on parole, the guy the ex wife was dating, had gotten drunk with the ex wife, and she admitted to him she lied and made it all up for money and to ruin his life. He recorded her 5 times admitting to it all and sleeping with the judge to get it to happen her way. The boyfriend takes it to my buddy, they take it to his lawyer, they file a lawsuit and the proper paperwork for an appeal, and wrongful suit. Takes 3 years, he wins big, he gets his record cleared, and she has to pay, and lost custody of both kids, and spent the next 4 years in prison, the judge is removed, imprisoned for 10, which he is currently still in federal prison in Leavenworth. Even with the win, and the clearing of his record, my best friend still lost everything, and his reputation, and his life for to long for lies. So when it comes to everyone on the registry i dont believe the case until i know the truth. My friend was innocent, and was wrongly convicted, it happens to often, there is others that pee on the side of the road, and get put on there, you wanna tell me they're some kind of dangerous criminal for releasing urine?

22mrranger i understand flaws in the legal system, my father spent a lot of time due to some bullshit. However, when it comes to raping someone or molesting kids i have no sympathy. Are there cases where people innocent are found guilty? Yes. Is that the case usually? No. Id say almost all of the child molesters that are incarcerated are guilty. And the fact that u are sitting here defending every child molester because your friend got “wrongly” convicted of molesting his kids which he probably did. U sound ignorant. U must not have kids? If u do...sheeeeeeesh. Get a clue, people like this get killed in prison for a reason

22mrranger and i just reread ur comment and i wish i didnt because its so stupid. So ur telling me that if u touch a 14 and ur 35 that not a pedophile and not molestation?? Basically what ur saying is that 13 yr old children can give consent to sex to adults

The man isnt the suspect on trial, hes a witness for the prosecution against the suspect. You gotta read the discription.

Yeah he snitched on someone.

The court system is fine, you are just not intelligent enough to understand it.

@@highlanderneal6509 "You're just not intelligent enough to understand it". Says the guy who can't speak for all the discrepancies on the part of our faulty judicially system and all the people falsely imprisoned. Imbecile.

@Sir Tristan Sir trash I like to lecture you in all the nonsense that goen on in our court system but I'll be to much your narrow mind to understand... please take care

benchmstr so I have to leave my country to know how corrupt it is? Your a fucking moron and that’s blatantly obvious...... our entire government is corrupt from the top down....I don’t need to go somewhere else to realize this...... and if your inferring that America’s system isn’t as bad as other countries.... well I don’t give a fuck about other countries

Eko Flo what court system is better ? And how is it a joke

Witnesses can be asked leading questions if the judge finds them to be hostile, and during cross-examinations, witnesses are assumed to be hostile. (Otherwise the other attorney would have objected unless they knew the question wasn't going to damage their case.)

It's not called snitching anymore its called tekashi 69'ing or 69'ing for short.

And still NO respect. He may get out in 12 months but bet he goes back in within 6 months!

That's about all he got him to do lol! Sorry, but he was no match for that dude lol!

No one. Some might have been expecting sparring however.

I expected verbal sparing and I barely got that... idc who’s wrong or right until I see all the evidence this is pretty clear cut why can’t I get the evidence!?!?! It would really help law enforcement to make it all public

I believe this is a prison hearing. Which are run differently

Did you bother to read the description? Didn’t think so

I'm glad you went to law school and were elected to at least a county seat.

@@tyrellanderson4722 Simping for white women again Tyrell?

@@Marcus-sk2xf So if she were black I wouldn't?

Because the lawyer is an idiot.

The judge isn’t obligated to force a witness to respect an attorney. That’s why.

That inmate is being tried for raping a 16 year old girl

@@garrettgreen9667 read again

Judge is a typical prosecutor judge who is determined to help the state/government railroad the defense. I bet of the prosecutor were the one asking these questions, the judge would be threatening to hold this witness in contempt within seconds. I LOL at all the people who think this defense lawyer sucks. They have no idea what it's like when the judge and the prosecutor are tag-teaming the defense. Even Atticus Finch can look weak in those circumstances.

@@trafalgarlawn7124 That wasn't a prosecutor questioning that witness was testifying against the attorneys client and the attorney is trying to imply he is only doing so because he is getting his remaining time in jail reduced. The inmate is not a a defense witness but a prosecution witness.

@@Stryyder1 There was a typo in my post, but my point was that if the prosecutor were the one asking this witness questions, the judge would not have allowed the witness to display the utter lack of candor he displayed here and would have quickly held this witness in contempt. But because it was a state witness, the judge simply sat back and giggled. Terrible judge, but then the criminal justice system is full of them.

The attorney in question is most likely a public defender... Who would actually pay money for his services?

Rochester The Clown 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
