Lawyers, what is the dumbest thing your client has done to ruin a case? 

Guy who destroys his own foot, gets greedy, loses everything. I love how the story adds with "He came CRAWLING back..."

can lawyers not put on their records "only lost cos client was a fucktard" to clarify they're not a bad lawyer haha

As a lawyer, I have to say that zero of these are surprising. Relatedly: if you’re ever on a jury, try not to assume anything about the case based on whether the defendant testifies. Lots of lawyers will strongly recommend that their clients not testify, usually because they are probably going to say something dumb. Not even necessarily related to the case. People say all kinds of dumb things or have a hard time communicating well when they’re nervous.

7:25 “for five minutes, could you not be yourself? FOR FIVE MINUTES!“

4:50 - his MISOGYNY lost him lots of money.

I think the issue is that people think that online, only their direct friends and family can see what they post

I love bloons. So much so that the Juggernaut placement upset me alot

Ohhhhh bloons gameplay!!! Nostalgia unlocked. Game sense activated.

Crazy seeing BTD6 gameplay on this channel. Very welcome.

"Jews always stick together." is the most laughable thing I have heard as a Jew in years. We ruin generation-long family friendships over home renevation TV shows, we aren't known for not holding grudges.

The person who is reading this comment, I wish you great success, health, love and happiness! ❤️

Man,that workman's comp case (story 55) where the company actually did the right thing. Wow! The client could have kept his salary, with raises, AND an allowance for health insurance. I would have jumped on it. You gotta wonder who said what to this client to think he'd get a better settlement when using his own gear. This is very sad, the client really needed that money dealing with an amputation but greed or something got the better of him.

Not a client, just a witness but was basically the one we were arguing for: never told us that all her medical notes were just taken from a boiler plate sheet and the client had never tried any of the other devices. Had we known that we might have been able to make it still work but as only the defense knew that we were ****ed when she got crossed on that.

Fuck yeah! Idk why, but lawyers are my favorite subject of ask Reddit threads, and having my favorite narrator reading makes it even better :)

Story 5- That sounds remarkably dense, but I use RFID scanners to find items at my job, and one of the older ones completely stopped working. I, of course, put it in the "not working" bin with a tag that said /that/ it was not working, and outlined (in writing) /how/ it wasn't working. Someone else took it out, took off the tag, and put it back with the "working" equipment. I had to repeat this several times over the course of months before people realized "wow, this thing literally does not turn on. I should leave it in the 'Not Working' bin." I can only imagine what would happen if it weren't a hand-held radio transponder, basically, and something that could actually do damage instead. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

Story 14. Guy probably thought prison would be a break from his wife.

Story 18. Can't afford to golf more than once a month?! How outrageous. Have a heart. All he did was not able by his own rules. Let him play the world more boring and vacuuous sport whenever he wants.

Yknow for future reference itd be cool if the game being played was in the description. Like I know this BTD6 but a lot of other games here? Not a clue

Story 18: how is anyone THAT stupid?! And stubborn!

...What, exactly, was it about that bailiff that would _possibly_ have given anyone the notion that he was dealing _in open court_ ? 🤦🏻

Whoever does these scripts needs to slow down. In a court story with circumstantial evidence where you’ve named the characters “D1, D2, D3” and D1 and 3 are halves of a couple who planned and committed a murder, it’s very important you don’t slip up and say, “we returned a not guilty for D1.” When you’ve just explained why it’s D2 who couldn’t be guilty due to burden of proof. Either take a second and reread these things, or give them full names. You guys make these mistakes way too often, and you’re getting paid too much to make them. The content is made by someone else for you, you’re compiling, editing, and reading them. So maybe we ought to do a good job on the editing and reading parts.

Your consistent efforts are paying off! -- "Dedication turns aspirations into reality.."

Couple tips for if you’re going to use more bloons gameplay, turn off the tips, and get all your upgrades unlocked ahead of time. The strategy you use doesn’t matter much, as it’s just background content, but try to plan something ahead of time so you don’t end up clueless in the background footage.

Anyone else just judging the inefficiency of the BTD monkies?

You know it’s bad if the Jury asks if they still have to leave the room

That kid in Story 32 shouldn’t be in custody of either parent

holy bloons

We have had 3 teachers during my time in primary school. 2 for CP and 1 for drug smuggeling. One of the CP teachers tried to corner my sister in the sports equipment shed and because he was one of the 'boys' amung the teachers nothing was done about it until YEARS later when another student found pictures the teacher had taken on an ipad.

"parte" in ex parte is pronounced like "partay" like you're going to party in the 90s and trying (and failing) to be cool about it. It means "from a party" meaning you meet the judge with only one side, away from the other side. It is almost always illegal, but with some specific exceptions, including the one in the case here. The exceptions aren't that rare, but you need to meet one or both the lawyer and the judge can get in trouble. And FOIA is usually pronounced, not spelled. Like "foy-yah." It's Freedom Of Information Act. In New York, they call it Freedom of Information Law, or FOIL, which is a better acronym.

These stories are absolutely wild! It's hard to believe the crazy things people do to sabotage their own cases. The one where the guy confessed to a murder he didn't commit just to look tough is mind-blowing. Thanks for sharing these hilarious and shocking courtroom moments!

"Comitt to the bit!!" hahaha fr!

Story 34: Isn't that coaching? Something super illegal?

I was involved in a car accident many decades ago. The insurance companies took the matter to court to see who was liable. The other driver claimed that he had a turn arrow and I had run a red light. I claimed that I had a green light. He also claimed that he was alone in the turning lane. I claimed that he was the third car in the turning lane and the first two cars had turned safely before I entered the intersection. He then proceeded to bring local traffic authority in as a witness, who then told the court that a turning arrow does not activate if there is only one car in the turning lane, and that car would have to wait for it to be safe from oncoming vehicles to turn. Completely shot himself in the foot. Couldn't have been the only car AND had a turning arrow.

"only two bottles of wine" is crazy

Story 15 .. Video calling into court while driving for driving without a license.

WAKE UP, UNDERSPARKED UPLOADED

19:11 The JURY was convicted? Wow, didn't see that one coming.

pro BTD tip. Don't put everything all in one spot. attacks get wasted and once they get through the main "towers" you're pretty much sol.

You know, there's an alternate reality where Mark David Chapman had a _machine gun_ and he got ALL the Beatles. I wish I lived there...

Wow hit in divorce by YOUR OWN PRENUP. How did he get that many cars with that common sense?

I recommend you use the quick shot cross path for the crossbow rather then sharper shots as it has a much higher damage output

Finally! Bloons! Is anyone else questioning how he has nearly every tower unlocked and barely any upgrades unlocked?

Love these longer videos.

yoo btd6 gameplay

Mf said “i ain’t moving that fence” 😂😂😂😂

weird to be listening to this video, tab out of Bloons TD6 only to see you, reading these posts, also playing bloons TD6 by sheer consequence

Bro I really want to see more bloons from you, you need to get them levels up💪

God, I love narrated reddit stories, not those robovoiced ones. Great to hear real emotions

My mom’s friend. Her client attacked a woman and the video went pretty viral. Not only was it on video, but the client then went on Dr. Phil to talk about the event. A little advice for you, if you want a jury to hear you out, don’t go on national tv and talk about it.

The debt collector one was crazy, but not surprising.

ive hard pretty tough stressful weeks but now it's comfy undersparked time yiippiiie

Thank fuck haha 😂 I've been waiting for it feels like forever for your next video lol 😊

no getting jail time because your FRIEND LIED and serving time knowing you didn’t do it that man has a really good lawsuit on his hands

That prenup story I find hard to believe.

A DA best friend is someone on the defense who has a big and fragile ego.

yay, another awesome video

Holy shit! Bloons TD6 as the video background! :O

Some people think they know better about the law than their lawyer

Love the BTD6 gameplay btw

Monkey placement was so scuffed i couldnt concentrate on the voice lol

My dude plays bloons likes he’s still in middle school playing btd3 on cool math games at school

Bro could've linked the Amber heard trial and that would have been as equally as stupid a case, lol.

Aah, I love Bloons!!!

great gameplay

47:49 Okay circumstances aside, *what?* How does being young make staying out of relationships unrealistic, exactly?

ayyy new video!

Soooo the guy in the last one went to jail for a crime he didnt commit while a murderer is out there free?

YOOO BLOONS

Love the video but I miss the RDR horse background video 😭

BTD6 background W

Wait, wtf is a MINOR domestic violence charge!?

So a break dance competition is not for people that broke a body part?

As someone with ASPD, I have to say, I'm really tired of hearing people act like we get a choice in our ability to empathize or care about other people. If it was a choice, I can guarantee, most of us would choose to care. I agree that the drug-using dad who sabotaged his own case probably should have been more self-aware and just not had kids in the first place, but biology doesn't care about your mental health status. If you're physically capable of having kids, chances are, you will if you don't take the right precautions to prevent it. I even agree with the poster deciding to end the relationship with the guy. It isn't easy to maintain a good and healthy relationship when you have ASPD, and I don't blame anyone for not having it in them to stay with someone like me, even if the person is actively trying to get help for the issues. But in a world where people defend rather fucked up actions because of mental health issues, I find it rather hypocritical to blame a sociopath for the fact that they have a lack of empathy, something that is beyond their control.

What is that game with the ballons?

8:08 god bless that worker. that man was misunderstanding the concepts and didnt want to be portrayed as weaker than he was.

Liked video for Bloons.

I googled and googled. What the hell is an RTA?

*doesn't

I wasn‘t the lawyer but the prosecutor. A young nurse had forged vaccination documents for herself during the pandemic and was charged with forgery. It was a clear conviction. The only thing we were discussing whether her motives justified a stricter or more lenient sentence. Basically it was her and her lawyers job to explain why forgery was morally justified in this case. She started talking about existential anxiety. Knowing she was a nurse and she might have been worried about losing her job I asked her what she meant with existential anxiety. Thats when she went off on a long monologue whining about not being able to go to clubs and cafes and restaurants and how her life had become so miserable because of that. Her lawyer initially tried to interrupt her but she just kept talking and the lawyer just sunk into his chair. I asked her why she didn’t just get tested and go to restaurants like that (that was possible at the time of her crime) she answered that she got tested at her job everyday but on her days off it was so annoying to get tested. When I asked whether she considered it justified to risk other peoples’ and her patients’ lives just to avoid getting tested on her days off she once again whined and cried about how sad she was at home. I prosecuted dozens of these forgery cases and she got the highest sentence. The judge privately called it the asshole tax.

Btd6 🤠

Woman don't own copyrights! Get outta here with that nonsense...

No way, never thought I'd see you playing BTD 6. Please improve your placements though.

BTD6🤩🤩🤩🤩

This might be petty but I'm very annoyed when there's a set topic and mfs are like "I'm not this topic, but..." Then why bother saying anything?

BALLOONS TD GAMEPLAY!

Holy shit I never knew that you were a based bloons player

Story 14 sounds fake

:0

1,000th like.

Is it possible to put trigger warnings on these things or certain parts of the video? I like watching these, but there will just suddenly be a grotesque story thrown into the middle of relatively funny ones. It's like whiplash and I'll stop watching because I don't want to be surprised by that stuff
