I agree! horrible judge that courtroom was a circus
I can understand the judge wanting to disqualify himself. The defendant was always not following the judges requests...the defendant was trying my patience too.
That needs to happen in the Delphi case. That judge is awful.
I do believe the judge on the Delphi case needs to recuse herself because of her bond with the family of the victims. Emotions could cloud her judgement and not allow her to be impartial in her ruling.
!!! Wow, I didn't see this coming. I hope the new judge is impartial. I respect the judge for disqualifying himself, whatever his reasons were.
RIP Paula 🌹 The prosecution was just as bad as the judge was ...
Paula was a nasty woman.
Excellent decision of this judge. Actually he is NOT qualified. He let the defendant run the entire trial.
What you are saying karma is b*******. Whether you thought it was smart for that guy to defend himself and be his own lawyer in his case, he wasn't disruptive or disrespectful.
He did exactly what a lawyer, is to do. He brought in doubt, and there was doubt in this case.
@@doaver2.125 if he were a lawyer, he would have been sanctioned, jailed, or disbarred.
@joanc5441 you are going to have to support your statement further ensure examples.
jf, what you say is true come he would have suffered the same fate as any lawyer come with exception of being disbarred.
@@doaver2.125are you sure that you watched this trial because Tucker was extremely disrespectful. He was late almost every day, he cut the judge off when he was speaking and when the judge issued an order he argued with him. Any lawyer who behaved like that would definitely have been sanctioned. Although he thought it, Tucker was not the smartest person in the room.
@@Ilene.sI have been in court where I was the victim of a crime and the defense lawyer flat out did not show up. Instead of proceeding without him or later sanctioning him, the judge did NOTHING. In fact he just said oh well, you can all come back tomorrow!
For a victim, this just adds extra trauma!
The next day the defense lawyer showed up and he and the judge were LAUGHING about it and making jokes about playing golf together. Good old boy network! Disgusting!
*He had ZERO control!! Allowed the defendant to come to court 30 min late for an entire week. That Zoom call in front of the jury was egregious!! Tucker walked around with a mic like he was giving a Ted talk. Horrible decision making as a Referee!! 11-1 Guilty verdict. He called a mistrial after only two days… 11-1!!! 2 DAYS!! That should have been at least 4 day deliberation. 11-1 lol*
11 guilty
1 not guilty
Really?? Interesting.
He bawled him for being late twice not all week
In some countries, 11 to 1 would be a guilty verdict
@@JustMe-px9qy11-1 lol Tucker told people it was 9-3 but the report came out earlier this week that it was 11-1. Supposedly that ridiculous unhinged Zoom call was the reason for the 1 not guilty. Smh Zoom call that should have never happened!
@@WilliamDaguehe was late every day for 5 days straight. The first 2 he was at the “Records building” the 3rd he said he was at the hospital getting his “witness situated because she's dying” and the last two days were uber issues. He was only threatened with contempt for only two of those days. Go back and watch the trial. He was late every day. And the judge was lost! He was so scared of messing up because Tucker was Pro Se he allowed any and everything smh
Tucker should have taken the deal. Retrials often favor the state. Now there is a new judge and his witness who lied for him as died.
Wait is she dead
@@elliotmiller7427yes she just passed recently from medical issues
@@nicolaxoxo1 that was bad to hear
Fingers crossed
Good! He was horrible! Hope next judge can control his courtroom.
He doesn't want to put up with that nonsense.
GOOD - I watched this trial and felt like I was watching a circus half the time!! The Judge was ridiculous and over allowed the defendant to out step his bounds that no represented defendant would have been allowed!!
Agree. Tucker's persistent lateness, his wandering around the court, that Zoom testimony from a dying woman on morphine, with Tucker coaching her throughout the testimony; "You're doing great, Paula". The judge should have put his foot down as soon as the defendant started taking liberties. It wasn't until the trial was coming to an end that the judge finally grew a pair.
@@geoffpoole483 Exactly - drove me crazy! No wonder it was a hung jury! SMH Ridiculous!
I think the judge was playing It too safe so Tyrone Fucker couldn't say he wanted a retrial cause the Judge was mean😢 The juror was probably paid off like Paula was, to help the murderer.
@@krisschobelock4973it was 11 to 1 for guilty so most of the jury wasn't buying Tucker's act.
Yes I agree! Plus this defendant was allowed to take pictures communicate plus his millionaire wife! Hmmm I wonder if any promises were made? $$$$ Seemed Very unfair. So many other things too.@@geoffpoole483
Respect the Judge for his decision. Bring on the next trial. Enjoy your freedom for now Mr Tucker.
Wow, he lost his start witness, rip paula.
they still have that video testimony.
He can’t stand the idea of doing it all again and I don’t blame him!
I sure hope that the truth ....Is found out and that a fair trial on both sides proceeds! May there be justice for the victims.
This judge needs to retire. He’s just angry.
Dont blame the guy
Poor Paula. Used her and now
The judge was so biased it made me crazy
That smooth-talking conman talked smack, and was able to dupe a naive and unworldly Jury. He knows just what to say to appear sincere. Please.
He should be told before the next trial to not smile or make eye contact with a particular juror. It was so obvious throughout the trial he was looking at one particular juror, trying to make a connection. What a conman.
@@debsibson7071 I KNOW!!!! It’s such a SCAM to connect with JURIES. Every Trial Attorney KNOWS: You’re supposed to INSULT & ALIENATE the Jury. Just ask Marcia Clark -- The OJ Jury evidently didn’t like her. They thought she was a B--. And looked what happened -- She WON, and OJ was found GUILTY of merking Nicole and Ron Goldman, and he was sentenced to 90 years in Prison. You are 100% RIGHT -- No Attorney should ever look at any of The Jurors.
I worked with repeat offenders. They thought they were slick and smart, like this guy.
This case should never have gone to trial to begin with. In fact, all cases relating to Penny Phelps & Co should be relooked
Whoa this is huge
I knew it was gonna happen, but I thought he was gonna retire. He sure needs to.
Next question is will Tucker have a defense attorney this go ‘around.
@@rlms56I hope not. I want to see them put that narcissist behind bars for keeps.
This is why they commit these types of crimes so freely…
Rest in Peace Paula
how did she die?
Yeah that's my question I think she survived unless she died recently. But then Court TV hasn't covered that
@@edwinacaparelli9911they said she passed away recently from medical issues, nothing to do with the injuries
@@nicolaxoxo1Paula had COPD and a host of other medical issues.
@@nicolaxoxo1 oh
Don't blame the judge. I would not be able to sit through that ish again.
Same. Tucker was a nightmare. I’m even debating whether I want to watch it again myself. I couldn’t stand listening to Tucker the first time.
I actually think the judge is recusing himself as he 1. Gave the defendant way too much time to talk. The judge actually seemed to help the defendant sometimes. 2. He doesnt want to have to be that patient again. Good for the judge no matter the reason.
The judge on the Idaho case should remove himself as well . Being that he went to school with Thompson and they are buddies .
I hope he gets a tougher judge so he doesn't get away wirh alot like he did with the trial
The judge did a very admirable job of giving both the defendant and prosecution a fair trial. Tucker repeatedly attempted to goad the judge into violating his rights. Now the judge wants, in deference to justice, to foreclose Tucker’s machinations to claim that the judge just hated him all along.
The state should be obligated to buy this guys drugs for the rest of time
Will her death affect his defense or they’ll rely on the recorded video again?
Her testimony didn't help his defense one bit plus now Tucker doesn't have to pay for her anymore which I'm sure he's happy about. The picture of the two of them on her hospital bed gave the game away for anyone with a brain. Apparently that included 11 members of the jury.
Yes that was his star witness that was the one and only person who said he didn't do it.
Gave the game away?@@Ilene.s
Paula died!!??
RIP Paula! 😢
RIP Paula 😢
No worries. She went up to that crack house in the sky.
Judge don’t wanna deal 😂with
Prosecution needs to give up. There's no evidence if defendant's guilt.
Judge obviously biased for prosecution.
They need Judge Judy for this case.
Good idea! 😂
Bad idea@@margaretlumley1648
You would think he would have given a reason. Can any judge disqualify themselves from any case for any reason? I would think this would lead to abuse.
It’s allowed and in this case it’s correct. Tucker had threatened to file a motion to have him recused. He also accused the judge of being “mad at him” so yes it was a smart thing to do
I imagine that the judge, having heard the last trial is probably sure that Tucker is guilty and no matter how much I dislike the defendant, even scumbags deserve a fair trial.
@@Ilene.s I don't get your point. Most defendants are guilty simply because prosecutors don't bring cases they don't think they can't win. Can a judge or attorney recuse themselves from any case where they think the defendant is guilty?
If every judge or attorney did that, then no one would hear or defend the cases where the defendant was guilty and they DO deserve their day in court.
Haha Tucker annoyed him so much he couldn't bear to sit through it again. 🙃
Don’t blame him don’t think I can sit thru it again.
Well, the judge hasn’t actually given a reason, so it’s an open question as to whether this is to do with integrity or not.
I won’t watch again. A clown show.
They need to drop the charges. No evidence …
Police need to investigate how Paula died. Just saying.
Hope the new judge tells him to sit down
With Paula's unfortunate passing... it would only seem fair for Franklin's next jury to find it essential to base their decision of defendant's fate... on the basis of assumption that Paula would've presented ace testimony in support of Franklin's innocence had she been physically present inside the courtroom, being that the defendant has to be found proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt as part of them being granted the benefit of the doubt.
GUILTY ‼️
Fly high Paula, rest In peace
May she ascend to that Crack House in the sky!
Florida taxpayers wake up. You are paying for this for the second time.
The judge thinks he is innocent
Probably saved his life from a stress induced stroke. Plus he ran a circus 🤡 with the biggest clown yapping over everyone disrespectfully . Most bizarre court shenanigans I’ve ever seen 😂
It was a disgrace. Tucker was just plain rude and obnoxious the whole trial. Hopefully the next judge puts him right in his place from the start and if he tries coming in late just once, arrest him. He was a joke
@@debsibson7071 yep I agree . It was so ludicrous watching the whole thing, Tucker was running everything
@@BeachButterfly22 he made a mockery of the court imo
Is Judge Judy available? (joking)
RIP Paula 🙏
NOT GUILTY AND RIP PAULA!!
I think the judge believes him that's y he Dosent want to sit in on it
Me too
Can a judge just recuse or disqualify himself for no reason? Very interesting but confusing.
Glad he disqualified himself! Hopefully the new judge in the next trial will not be as lenient with Tucker’s antics! There’s no excuse for being late! No need for him to walk around the courtroom with a mic…stand at the podium! Tucker isn’t going to like it being held accountable!
......what
😮
That is the best decision, the judge had no control over Tucker, he thought he was on a talk show, bring on the next judge and make he/she more competent and stricter than the first one, I bet old Tucks is unhappy about this decision 😂
Prosecutors need to let this one go . They obviously have no case . 0-2 .
When all the witnesses are tweekers, you don’t know who to believe.
We do know who the jury believed. 11 guilty and 1 not guilty. Hopefully in this next trial all will agree
I believed everyone one but Tucker.
@@Ilene.sI think the prosecutor has zero evidence
😢 Paula died 😢 So sad. Rest in peace 👏🕊
I’m so thrilled.That was several hours of my life I will never get back🤣🤣That judge treated Tuck like a son that he couldn’t say no to.I understood him to be retiring
With respect I followed the whole trial and it was embarrassing. I’m looking forward to the retrial simply because of the narcissism shown by the defendant, he constantly spoke over and argued with the judge. Turning up late also, Tucker in my opinion is guilty as for another evidence to prove that fact beyond a reasonable doubt, that’s a totally different thing. Love Court TV, especially Vinnie he is one class act! 👍🏼❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧
Bad judge (biased) but I don’t blame him for wanting out! The narcissist defendant murderer was too difficult and interfered and conned witnesses to lie for him! So gross! Prosecution lied and scammed too! Everyone corrupt 🤦♀️ I don’t want to see this trial again! 🤮
My Dude, This Defendant could have pled guilty for time served, but turned it down. He would have Zero Additional Time. What GUILTY PERSON would turn that down? He could have just walked away.
The only person who would RISK YEARS AND YEARS IN PRISON would be an innocent person. There would be NO MOTIVATION TO FIGHT unless you’re INNOCENT.
IE: A Guilty Plea with no additional time served would be EASY --- The only reason to turn it down is if you’re INNOCENT.
@@wildmercuryfilms I disagree. And so did 11 of the jury members. A narcissist like Tucker who knows that he will lose his gravy train if he admits guilt would definitely take it to trial and be his own lawyer. Tucker thinks he's the smartest person in the room and he's confident that he can make people believe him so that's the exact type of person who would turn down a plea and take it to trial. As long as he can be in control it's exactly the kind of stage he likes to perform on. One where everyone is watching the Tucker Show.
@@Ilene.s I disagree. He's innocent and he's doing it for the sake of his reputation and for what is right. He could easily plead guilty and not have to serve any more time. He could hire an attorney and have a much better job done at proving his innocence but it's just so obvious he is innocent that he shouldn't need to hire anybody. It's just ridiculous people think there is not enough reasonable doubt here and want to find him guilty.
@@Ilene.sexactly. Said what I was thinking too
Thought Tucker was found guilty? So is tHis to be a new trial or is it just for sentencing
It was a hung jury so declared a mistrial. This is the Pros having another go at prosecuting him.
Hung jury last trial. New trial starts next month.
RIP Paula :(
Proves lawyers can use trickery over evidence and some people fall for it. So many are firm that he is innocent
Ridiculous women believe he is innocent. 🙄😵💫🤡
Is he a lawyer? News to me.
What? The judge request has nothing to do with what you're saying. He's probably aware he didnt job a good job on controlling the court. This doesnt diminishes Tucker's job on defending himself though.
The State needs to give up and let him be free. They already offered him time served. The surviving victim says he didnt do it. States only real evidence is the testimony of a crackhead that they gave a plea deal to. What a stupid case. State needs to focus resources elsewhere
This man is innocent period
The guest in the watermelon jacket was not a good guest
He didn't do it stop wasting taxpayers money on an innocent man.This is ridiculous.
I’m praying for this man!!! I believe he’s innocent
I won’t watch again. A clown show.
Me either
