Hot Sequestration Banging is a decent band name. First album could be Hung Jury.
Well Hung Jury is so much better

Lots of the science excluded......because she already testified to it, or failed to testify to it because her lawyers didn't elicit that testimony.
Brilliant.
You do it the other way. The jury has to understand why she testifies so poorly before she does it. Why she makes bad decisions. Why she doesn't see, hear or smell. This is all supported by decades of science
All this stuff comes in if experts go first. Is she going to testify? Gee, judge we don't know, we will let you know when and if she decides to do so.
The state objects to everything, the defense just lets everything in. These guys are fucking useless.
Why is how she acted after the shooting (which makes the jury hate her guts) relevant to prove her state of mind, and the reasonableness of deadly force, at the exact moment of the shooting?
You don't let the state Monday morning quarterback your self defense case. It's self defense 101!
Why did they elicit testimony that she wants to be a cop to help people, that opens the door to evidence from the state that she does in fact NOT want to help people, by not helping Mr. Jean.
Goddamn they fucked up a lot of stuff in just one day.

I don't know if that is true. Do they cover it when you do dumb shit off duty?

I don't know Rogers, who seems to be running the show. It is like he is completely unprepared.
Shook is good and Mowla, who has had little to do with this, is great on appeals.

She paid this guy tens of thousands of dollars.
And got nothing.
She paid this expert thousands of dollars. Thanks for coming! We won't need you.

this fucking Rogers guy is a V6

I wonder.....
has the defense ever qualified an expert?
Because this is a shit show.
They had to know the state would object to their expert and they spent a mere 20 minutes trying to qualify him in a complicated field?

So the state objects (and gets sustained) when the defense asks "what would you do" to the cop, but the defense does not.
nice job, defense attorneys

In all fairness none of these women were armed

OK I'm trying to fight crime fighting and my legal assistant is off and the goddamn phone won't stop ringing.
Did the state not re-cross Guyger after lunch?

I think a well trained and experienced law enforcement officer can qualify as an expert on acute stress response, at least some aspects of it.

Ranger Armstrong is just paying it forward.
Now that would be a good example of of the applicable culpable mental states for manslaughter (recklessness) or criminally negligent homicide (criminal negligence)

any one got this, I refuse to subscribe to that rag

maybe they could have made a shit sandwich out of Ranger Armstrong, her, then Dr. Green?

primacy or recency
we know where you stand

I'm sure it is her social media stuff a few pages back

that medical stuff is FOR COPS ONLY!!!

she is fucking done, I don't care what Dr. Green or Ranger Armstrong have to say
her lawyers got outclassed by a wide margin
-
Jesus Christ she is getting skewered.
Did they practice direct or cross even once?
-
summary of testimony: well, that ain't good
-
the defense fucked this up
they should have put the expert and ranger Armstrong on first to explain why her testimony would suck ahead of time

I wonder what plea options were available.
None. Jury to decide.

Especially weird since she was sitting there when that testimony occurred, not like she was excluded under The Rule.
Question for 4th and 5 and the other lawdogs - any chance they could look for a "sudden passion" reduction to 2nd degree? Looking at the plain language, it says it only applies if there was provocation from victim or someone with victim. Can that include "perceived" provocation?
I think you get the adequate cause (terror) but not the sudden passion element, so no, I don't think it will apply. The perceived provocation is an interesting theory.
Could it be included in the charge? possibly, because if there is any evidence whatsoever to support it, and the judge refuses to put it in the charge, it is reversible error

2019 Fishing - Bent rods and tight lines

Cool. I have my own boat down there but I use Ernest occasionally. He is a good guide and very patient with inexperienced fishermen. He is all about the fishing experience, not boxing 16 inch trout on croaker.
How did you like his new 25 foot Majek Illusion?
