Why is there only audio in Left channel?
At 4:47 things turn burgundy...
That annoying tech thinks she's smart but shes not, and her attitude is obvious.
100%
Do you see how her face is getting red when she says “I don’t recall” because she knows she’s lying? She’s so rude!
@@1224dlc" let me talk to the Manager" aka Karen lol
The state witnesses are intended to corrupt the jury, this one was clearly just a bad pick lol
And arrogant! To me, her head movements speak volumes.
This witness is a real piece of work.
She is coming up as defensive and obnoxious. She is not objective. That no doubt influenced the judge.
She is NOT an investigator. A technician does nothing more than analyze evidence. They have no stake in whether someone is found guilty or not guilty. She is not a detective.
I think she has every right. She was directed to do things by the lead investigator/prosecution and probably thought they were doing everything properly. Now her worth ethic and morals are being questioned because she had a hand in what happened here. Her career and competence are under attack. I think she's a victim of the lead investigator(who seemed quite close to Seth Kenney in a non professional way) and the prosecutor(massive chip on her shoulder, desperate to nail Baldwin in this high profile trial she went into very confident). I don't fault her for being flustered/defensive/upset. She didn't intentionally get herself into this situation.
@@DodongoManoofshe is a hostile witness. Instead of answering the questions she was defensive and refused to admit the truth. The defense knew how to question her to get her to spill the beans. She has wants to save her own skin for complying with orders and hiding evidence instead of following procedures
'i dont recall' seems to be the fall back to those on the prosecution side
@@sandwichman100 It's funny because she was so confident in her memory yesterday
It appears that the crime scene tech and whoever else decided they didn’t rate the “evidence” being bought to them by a former LEO and dismissed it. And that’s not up to them to decide. Huge mistake and the judge has made the correct call to dismiss the prosecutions case with prejudice. What a mess!
Citizens accused of a crime not only have to worry about the evidence but the bias and ethics of the crime scene investigator 🙄
this lady didn't know who she was talking too, he is way smarter than she is and he destroyed her.
She's basically the entire reason this case got thrown out.
I hope the smugness was worth it.
smug smirks and the feminist haircut and glasses kek
No, she is not. She followed orders.
@@wizardm Just following orders again 😂
@@wizardm orders of another feminist😅
@@dmitryletov8138 Don't talk trash. As forensic technician, you are not in a leading position and do not make any important decisions independently.
There is a strong element of the absurd to this entire exchange.
Your comment is succinct and an accurate observation.
She needs to be fired.
she's needs to be sued or put in jail
@@howdareyou41 For what? You seem to dislike her.
@CC-xn5xi She lied under oath, tell the truth, and you have no worries. You see, if this evidence was given to the defense, the trial would still be going. This is why it was dismissed. Withholding evidence
@@howdareyou41 Fishlip grinning Hancock is somewhat bored in her „job“… she will have a lot more fun as a hair stylist + beauty cosmetic botox saloon, that‘ll fit her a lot much more.
Her body language to me says she is in defense mode as soon as she is asked to swear in. Her chin is pushed outward.
"Her"? Citation needed.
Well I would be too if I was referred to as investigator while I’m only a technician lol
100% in defense mode!!
@scotttillman01and she’s in defense mode!! That’s beyond obvious!!
@@pattiwhite9575 now is not the time for you to wake up from your coma. Just worry about making sure you clean the man juice off your chin honey. Stick with what you know best.
DA needs to be fired
This goes on all across the country. Many DA's need to be fired. Sad most Americans plea out because lack of money.
She quit
Well the prosecutor
....Wait for it....
@@cameronsanford9708good
He absolutely cooked her
Doesn't she scream "let me speak to the manager?"
Her?
@@fraomedinaii2095 Yes, I assumed its gender.
@@fraomedinaii2095why not her? Isn't she woman?
when you have to say 'it was not hidden...' seems pretty hidden 😮
He should have referred to her as a lazy witness, with selective memory, just helping the prosecutors, she is lame, useless & looks to me to be somewhat of a liar.
If the prosecutors, technicians & investigators tried to railroad a “movie star” in a high profile crime case, think of what they do to every day citizens that the media do not even know about.
Selective can’t recall testimony.. unreliable witness. She has no business being a crime scene technician. It wasn’t me I was instructed. Blah blah blah
The defense attorney is doing what he's paid to do. He's there to get his client off the hook.He exposes the big mistake of the police and prosecutors. They blew it.
It wasn't a mistake. They purposely hid evidence.
They sure did and it helped the defense attorney very well
Hiding evidence! But she’s cocky. She fancies herself a language expert. She wants to call the shots and is difiant. She’s nasty and sneaky. I do not recall is her favorite answer.
If the detectives, the police department, and the DA's office did their jobs, Seth Kenney might be on trial today.
Spectacular defense counsel❣️ professional and awesome.
He is asking her pretty simple questions and if he makes an error she could correct him without the attitude. But attitude is what she brings.
She is upset. You would be also in the same situation. Have a bit of compassion instead of getting all judgey a her "attitude". Please.
@@klee88029 nah, she’s an officer of the law and should act appropriately in legal proceedings.
@@Great_KateShe is being very factual while the defense attorney tries to lead the witness, her.
@@klee88029have a little compassion that they suppressed evidence? There is nothing more disgusting than a corrupt Justice system
@@CC-xn5xi “factual” and “truthful” do have not exactly the same meaning.
She took an oath to tell the whole truth. This is pure sleaze.
The witness was rude
No, the witness was truthful and the defense attorney lies and leads the witness. The witness was entitled to speak the truth.
.. and wildly vague.
@@CC-xn5xi The witness TANKED the whole case 🤣 get tf out of here, with that weird defense of an obnoxious slob.
@@CC-xn5xi the "technician" burner account identified
@@CC-xn5xithe defense attorney is asking leading questions because it’s cross examination. Leading questions are the foundation of cross, it’s only direct where you’re not permitted to ask them.
This CST pretended she knows nothing, hears nothing, sees nothing, and hears nothing.
But the uniquely distinct look of the Rust case cartridges should have alerted any reasonable person that this evidence was important.
It's obvious that it was "buried."
Baldwin got a well deserved dismissal. No one should ever have to deal with this prosecutor.
Totally agree like or dislike him
He is still guilty. Every element was satisfied.
No he doesnt. He's still guilty for negligence. Just because the prosecutor is corrupt doesnt make him innocent. LOL if a someone committed a crime and he prosecutor ended up being corrupt. That means they're both criminals, not just the prosecutor 😂
@@richbrake9910 maybe in public opinion, but you have to follow the law while executing a prosecution. Otherwise the crown could just do whatever they want
Agreed. And I’m not even a fan of Baldwin, but even I could see that this needed a dismissal. I’m pretty certain that what happened was a horrible horrible accident that no one wanted to happen. I’m sure Baldwin has learnt many lessons regarding the importance of following SAFE PRACTICES on movie sets, and the importance of hiring QUALIFIED individuals for certain roles on set.
What a terrible attitude that witness had.
At least he didn’t refer to as bean-shaped head.
This woman is incompetent!
no, she knew what she was doing. that was corruption not mistake.
@@roc7880💯
Arrogance never works in a witness stand
this crime scene tech tried playing her word games with the Judge. It did not end well, and the Judge told the prosecutor to knock it off.
This lady is a liar clearly! “I don’t recall” I don’t recall that’s all she says
Could immediately see the chip on her shoulder
I wonder if this will have any impact on Hannah’s conviction
It's just fascinating to see the difference in caliber the more expensive a lawyer is.
Not necessarily - I’m sure Alina Habba was expensive, and she is awful.
@scotttillman01well the FBI did warn them it would destroy it and the PD STILL chose to do the testing!! INSANE!!!🤯
@brynneholt1990 I'm sure there is a ton of anomalies. Trump can't get anyone to represent him. Also, Gulianni, the former mayor, was technically free.
I am referring to the lawyers that have handled high profile cases this month. The American justice system is in shambles right now.
@brynneholt1990 I can't help but notice you're here after the dismissal. You probably have no idea what the difference is. Girl, be quiet when grown-ups are talking, okay? Calm down....woosaw. 😂
Baldwin should sue the state and donate every cent to a public defenders charity in New Mexico.
Every cent? Like this trial and case did not cost him dearly with the finances, irreplaceable time, extreme duress physically and mentally, as well as reputation?!
Even lawyers hate lawyers.
🤭😋🤣🤣😂😂🤣😂
She's trying soo hard to abdolve herself of wrong doing AND lying. She needs to be prosecuted along with prosecutors and police
I bet she liked being called an investigator before she got on that stand.
Omg her argumentative attitude over semantics … a misnomer!? She has zero ounce of humility- battling with the defense, in such a snide way, isn’t a flex! She certainly didn’t win any brownie points for neglecting a pedestrian choice of vocabulary!
Her attitude said it all. Terrible attitude
She is lying and withholding information. She did it on purpose. She does not like Alec Baldwin.
No one should like Alec Baldwin. Says a lot about ones character
@@emilinebelle7811doesn’t mean they should set him up for a crime!!!
@@emilinebelle7811why can't people like him? Because you think he's bad? I like him for what he is, an actor. Many great movies he's been in!
@@emilinebelle7811 "should"? So you don't like him and think you are the best judge of character of someone you've never met. Riggghhhtt..
Lying and withholding information? Based on what? This dude is throwing out wild theories left and right.
I don't get why she's so combative. She just has to report facts
Now I see why the Judge was so displeased with the prosecution. "This is not evidence" in the report means "This is evidence that could hurt our case and we want to bury it so the defense never sees it".
How would that "evidence" make any difference as to whether or not Baldwin pointed the gun and pulled the trigger?
I'm so glad they were able to find out about this... Absolutely terrible...It just makes you wonder how often evidence is " buried" by prosecutors in other cases... It's really unfortunate...
Who told her to put those bullets under a NEW CASE number? No one asked WHO? Natural operational procedure would be to put it under RUST case number. WHO? WHY?
I cannot understand the obsession with blaming Alec. I loved watching his attorney wipe the floor with this flustered witness.
I use that brass and primers… mostly used for reloading (I do that) or used brass reloaded by professional loaders.
There is an awful lot that this person does not recall from a case that is certainly the most important high profile case she has ever worked on - selective memory I am sure coached by the prosecutor. The judge said that there was ‘no doubt’ that the hiding of this information was deliberate - heads must roll
Why is she obfuscating? She should just answer the questions! Why TF wasn’t it logged with the rest of the evidence? Geez!
It wasn't her decision on how to log it in. She was told to do it that way.
@@elliebellie7816 If that’s true, she should say that. It seems like she’s just upset because he’s asking at all. She shouldn’t be emotionally invested enough to be upset. Imho
@@elliebellie7816
Trying to watch all these clips but they are out of order and confusing. I saw where she testified that she was directed to file it that way, but do you know if the person who ordered it was ever called to answer why?
Weak excuse and I think they wanted to bury it, seems their excuse is that this evidence was BROUGHT to them, they didn't collect it, therefore it was technically verifiable evidence...?
Edit unverifiable
The prosecutor is putting on a master class in how to interview a witness. He gets her on the defensive, and then just destroys her credibility.
I agree with you that he is highly skilled, but he is the defense attorney (not the prosecutor). He did a stellar job with this case - very impressive.
He is not the prosecutor, he is the defense attorney.
She has real 'attitude'.
if they asked her what she had for breakfast she could not recall
She really likes to not recall things.
It's been obvious since the HG trial that Morrissey is a poor advocate: disorganised, verbose, disjointed questioning, long-winded, vacuous. This outcome comes as no surprise.
Agreed yet she mopped the floor with HG lawyer.. that’s the embarrassing part 🤣🤣🫣
wonder what the relationship between the cst and the prosecutor is like...Friends?
This whole swiss cheese began with Seth Kenney
8:56 Are you serious? You made the report a month later?
Man, there is a whole lot of "don't recall that" in this deposition.
I‘ll ask the question a third time..! - I love this guy!
A crime scene tech is such an important job and this girl needs a new job because she seems to incompetent to have such a high job.
She doesn't recall anything but gets testy when the word match is used. And she doesn't know the guy and uses that to justify saying that the expolice officer is someone that is not trust worthy.
Honestly I think the prospector was terrible but it feels like the behavior of this witness only helped speed up the judges decision. It became very clear the longer she was grilled, the more defensive she became that the case was some serious railroading
She was terrible and so defensive with the defence even when asking basic questions. I thought this was extremly concerning at the time and now we know why
Omg the dying mother comment? As if we should have sympathy for her? She has none for the two people who did not get a fair trial (or potentially wouldn’t in this trial) because she helped to cover up evidence. What a sh”tty person to have on that side of the system.
Needs to be fired
Been in Prayer for Mr Baldwin and His Family 💯❤️🙏
The State presentation and their poor handling of evidence is what made Baldwin go free.
Case shouldn't have never been tried 🤡 😅😅
They straight up hid the evidence.
New Mexico is known for serious corruption.. almost as bad as Massachusetts.
@@my98-ot7jj keep saying that cuz if you were in his shoe, this wouldnt have happen to you because you arent wealthy. He got off free because he's wealthy and has clout. You think this is the first time prosecutors do shady stuff? LMAO they do it all the time. Chances are, you wouldnt be let go that easily.
witholding vital evidence to the defense didn't help much.
Her job is to present the evidence and let it speak for itself. I don't trust state with witnesses who are defensive. Please watch the Karen Read trial to the end. More people need to know what is happening in MA to a woman who is not famous.
If I was on the jury I wouldn't believe a single word this investigator....oh excuse me....this CST said. The body language, facial expressions, and arrogant attitude totally discredit her. I don't even believe her story about her so-called dying mother.
I agree💯
Crime scene tech has been successfully called into question
Yea, she's completely shady and evasive.
Hardly. More like the lawyer has shown he is just like Alec- arrogant and a bully.
Why? Because she refused to agree with the lawyer’s mischaracterization of her role?
@@scientistatwork4667you do realize a defense attorneys job is quite literally to spin a plausible story of the facts to prove that the charges the prosecution is pressing doesn’t fit or is accurate to what happened….
Obviously the judge agrees with the defense and disagrees with you considering they dismissed the case
@@scientistatwork4667 the defense lawyer was actually super polite to her. And she should be charged for mishandling evidences
She’s excels at not recalling information and providing definitive responses.
WOW HOW SHE IS SUCH A LIAR
She never gives a complete answer…way to squirmy for me, she is hiding something, very clear!
She is mad they got caught 😂
prosecutor is smelling the inevitable end of her career 😮
she shouldnt be employed...suppose to be non prejudice and keeps looking at the prosecutor wtf..
Why do all of these “experts” have such horrible memories?
Looks messed up person
"I wouldn't use the word voucher, I wouldn't use the word investigator, I wouldn't use the word Hidden" Why is the judge's letting her play semantics like that? This is court, not SNL...
This incompetent, “C.S.T.” walked into the hair cutter and said, “Give me the quail cut.” 🤣🤣
what kind of device is Stephen Baldwin wearing?
Mp3 player?
Stephen Baldwin is wearing a headset typically used for the hearing impaired.
@@Lomitatawa thanks that’s what I thought. But I am sure Alec is glad what he heard today. Yet unfortunate for the woman who lost her life.
@@richrentThe making of the movie as well as the trial were a pure shitshow, never seen so many mistakes in management on all sides just wow.
He's listening to the latest Justin Bieber track
when she said the following month.. dying mother.. no, I was done lol
interesting strategy to make her, and by proxy the entire police department seem inept
They were!
You can’t make them look incompetent unless stuff was done wrong.
"seem"? Did you mean "proof to be"?
Not incompetent, criminal. They purposely withheld evidence from the court.
Well, they were wrong. 😂
The Crime Scene Tech probably got her degree from IKEA 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's MA'AM!!!
Why is she so angry?
Because she's been caught trying to frame Baldwin
Cause she knowingly tried to conceal evidence and this has torpedoed the prosecution's case against Alec.
it was a team of investigators who hid this evidence. The crime scene tech was given the responsibility to flat out lie about EVERYTHING. Then the other cops and prosecuter could weasel their way though testimonies.
Great coverage
Let's go back to Sesame Street.
Count with me: In-ves-ti-ga-tor is 5 syllables, Tech-ni-cian is 3 syllables.
Hmmm, so is CST.
@@hotflashfoto and so is cte
Oh this is the video I’ve been looking for this morning 😮
The prosecution knowingly committed a Brady violation. Which is a felony in some states. This will continue until we change immunity laws.
Multiple Brady violations, as admitted by Kari on the stand later in the day. These mofos should be investigated and charged for will miss conducted or at least sanctioned.
Whoa she is biased 😂 she’s coming across as obnoxious and arrogant.
She's talking like she knows her job..She's not wrong, but can't remember anything. And she's defensive. They deliberately hid evidence! And put it under a different case #. This case needs to be thrown out. Besides the fact that it wasn't the Actors job to check the guns ..its now messy but not Alecs fault. She doesn't even care that the evidence was handled wrong😂
Yeah and she filed the report a MONTH later. A report that should be filed within 24 hours.
She looks related to Thomas Crooks. Any relation?
They are covering for this Seth Kenney guy.
Yep. they sure are.
A whole lot of not recalling.
Peoples comments are very odd. The attorney is ascribing to her functions that she didn't do in her particular job.
CSTs literally investigate the scene Porky 😂 she was investigating the case. Like some sort of investigator 😂
Bet she calls herself one in every other context except this one 💀 because here she would be accepting responsibility by accepting the title 😂

And this is how not to conduct oneself on the witness stand if one wants to present as a credible witness.
Top points for being truly unlikable and disagreeable, though.
