What blew my mind was when the judge said in regards to the turn signal and careless driving, that he would have to side with the Commonwealth since there was no evidence to prove the the defendant was innocent. Since when did courts adopt the presumption of guilt unless proven innocent?
No dash cam no violation no bodycam no violation. Officer mutes or shuts off body cam no violation, Officer is fired and charged with evidence tampering.
i agree, the argument will be police have been doing their job without video since before video was available, so their testimony alone should be sufficient, i disagree because video has been known to prove police testimony false on many occasions, funny there is no dash cam on the pullover or the "reason" for it.
Okay but what if the officer forgets to turn on his/her body cam and witnesses a murder. They arrest the suspect and didn't record it, according to you they should just let the suspect go? Wtf

I served on a jury for a case involving an elderly man, around 75 years old, accused of DUI in San Diego. It's essential to note that this man was gay and living with HIV/AIDS. This detail is significant because he had a wound on the front side of his left leg near the knee. This wound was slow to heal and infected, causing instability. He was undergoing treatment with antibiotics and painkillers. The defense attorney presented a photo showing a significant wound, appropriately described as a "gaping hole" in his leg. The incident occurred when he was taking his intoxicated and irresponsible boyfriend, who appeared to be around 40 years old, home at 4 AM. The boyfriend interfered with the driving, causing the car to roll out onto the main boulevard after failing to stop at a T-intersection. Thankfully, there was no traffic at that early hour on a Saturday morning. However, a veteran San Diego police officer, accompanied by a trainee, witnessed the incident and pulled the elderly man over. When the elderly guy exited the car and stumbled due to his leg problem, the officer asked if he was using drugs. Unfortunately, the man admitted to taking a painkiller just before leaving home. Consequently, he was arrested for DUI and taken into custody for a medical assessment. The medical assessment, conducted approximately 55 minutes after the man took the painkiller, showed the drug was in full effect. Despite the time lapse, the officer proceeded with the arrest based on the drug-level printout. Surprisingly, neither the defense attorney, the judge, the two officers, nor the other jury members considered the time lapse factor during the trial. During deliberations, I had to use a whiteboard to illustrate (had to draw them a picture, for fk's sake) that the man was not impaired at the time of the traffic incident, based on his (uncontested) testimony. After thorough discussion, we, the jury. unanimously agreed that the man was not guilty of DUI. I was mildly surprised when both the District Attorney and the defense attorney requested interview of the jury members to understand our verdict. It was alarming (and damned disappointing) to me that no one had considered the time lapse factor, and I felt surrounded by incompetence. This oversight could have unjustly led to the man's incarceration and significant financial losses. Most infuriating was the lack of intelligence displayed by the arresting officer in neglecting to consider the time lapse. I asked if the idiot officer was available, but he was not. Just as well because I would have criticized his negligent actions and carelessness to his face. In conclusion, I just gotta express my gratitude to Larry (and defense attorneys like him) for his moral and conscientious work. My singular experience in the court system has underscored the profound importance of such advocacy in ensuring justice for the victims of jackass kkkops.
Larry HAD to have won this. I want a finale❗Sorry if I missed it, but, damn. To watch him make his case is an awesome thing ❤ He doesn't even have to be rude. Just presenting evidence. I think prosecutors are scared of him anywhere.
Got to love watching the Judge texting during the triall and you wonder if he's really paying any attention to what really going on in his court room, Sad to see!
Wouldn't be the first time an "expert witness" was used to convict someone on bogus evidence. Experts shouldn't be taken at their word just because they're experts.
Cns depressants suppress the nervous system, marijuana is considered a hallucinogenic I believe but certainly doesn't depress the central nervous system, i believe it actually works in a very unique way compared to say opiates alcohol and benzos are all cns depressants and all are much more similar to each other than they are to marijuana. Marijuana stimulates more than depresses.
The judge alternates between texting, eating candy or cough drops, coughing, and surfing the web. This guy is a disgrace and hopefully is not re-elected.
"The Effects of Cannabis and Alcohol on Driving Performance and Driving Behavior", Simmons et al 2022, a meta-review of 57 studies, looked at among other things the effects of alcohol and THC on "hazard response time" and cannabis was not associated with an increase in hazard response time but alcohol was. The combination of both did not increase hazard response time over what alcohol did alone. The expert claims that THC at the very least has an additive effect when combined with alcohol on reaction time. I would like to see what study he is referencing to conclude that.
I don't know what Planet or Universe you're living in... But here in *_Upside-Down World,_* alls you have to do is declare the "witness" an "Expert", then he magically just gets to say whatever OPINION(s) he wants. But yes, you are correct... If we were living in a Normal Universe, actual witnesses would be required to actually have personal, first-hand knowledge and would be held to only testify to actual FACTS currently within their knowledge. This "witness" here is an absolute *_Clown_* as he's testifying to things completely outside the scope of his discipline & domain of *_Chemistry & Toxicology._* ...And if someone thinks I'm mistaken here, then to demonstrate, alls you would need to do to destroy this *_Clown_* would be to draw a random chemical structure, and ask him to 1st identify it and 2nd, explain its toxilogical effects on the human body. The only person who should be allowed to testify on the "effects of THC" should be an actual Researcher in THC, or, an actual Pothead with years of personal, first-hand knowledge & experience.
That may be true, but without your observations being controlled and peer reviewed they are just anecdotal. An expert shouldn't render an opinion on anecdotal evidence, at least not without stating so. Besides, he specifically used reaction time as the thing being affected, but a recent meta-analysis refutes that claim. If he had picked lane control instead of reaction time, I would have agreed with him. There are several studies showing how THC exacerbates weaving in one's lane when combined with alcohol.
@@markburry9989 that was the word I was looking for....remember when "masks" were proved "scientifically" because a couple hair dressers clients didn't get sick because hair dressers wore masks... It was hilarious because few if any scientists would accept anecdotal evidence on its face

After seeing the way cops and prosecutors and “expert witnesses” lie, I could probably never convict anyone unless there is direct video evidence of them committing the crime.
Unfortunately, they can now fake videos... (if they really, really wanted to convict someone)... ...Or, the more likely scenario... if they really, really wanted to convince & propagandize something to the masses.
Well realistically the phrase is guilty before proven innocent without ANY reasonable doubts. Now that's pretty hard to reach if it is treated as intended. Just don't say that if you get called for jury duty, act like a normal person who wants to uphold the law and be honest for society. Obviously there's nothing wrong with judging it the way you do, without camera evidence it is fair to have reasonable doubt based on cop/investigator claims. Especially because their whole job is biased to make the person guilty. Kind of a stupid system IMO. But just say that you will uphold the truth and hold everyone at the standards you are supposed to. They don't have to know what that means for you or they will kick you out. But it is morally and objectively correct to have doubt on just testimony based on how often we see cops lie and their inherent bias to want a conviction. That is a reasonable doubt for any normal person, only a fucking idiot would trust testimony of cops and investigators with out any single doubt. If anything I have a LOT of doubt and their words mean nothing. But I won't be explaining that when called for jury duty, I will just say I will uphold the laws to the best of my ability with the information presented.
There was a case out of *_Florida_* ("The Ice-cream Truck Killer") where the Lead Investigator got on the witness stand and could barely speak English: He came across as literally R3T4RDed & botched the investigation at several stages, one of which was to obtain key exculpatory evidence that would have 100% definitively proven either Guilt or Innocence (the Verizon ISP location & data records), and despite this, the jury still convicted the defendant !!!
Every judge across the country should unequivocally and explicitly state at the beginning of every trial that LYING will be punished with IMMEDIATE imprisonment.
And that is why roadside tests are not recommended.... There is nothing that it could add to this mans defense and gives officer chance to make objective statements at trial.
that the judge hoarks his loogies into his kerchief repeatedly, then uses it to cough into....repeatedly...then wipes his face with it IS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. plus his constant texting and internet usage instead of using his observation skills to determine whether or not the witness is being truthful is reprehensible. this "judge" is revolting on a hygiene (personal) level and on a judicial (due process) level.
Courts ruled that law enforcement officers can lie to citizens and in fact receive tmrvaining on doing that, so how then can the courts find any basis to believe any law enforcement officer? It boggles the mind that courts could belive them
This is in reference to the female behind the judge, but first a side-note: maybe its cuz i missed the other vids so far in this series, but I struggled to come up with what her job could possibly be... until i decided its just bring ur daughter to work day (omg, which is so like, totes adorbs, btw!). Did anyone else notice that you can pinpoint the exact moment she openly sides with the prosecution in this video!? As the prosecutor presents his argument against the motion for a directed verdict (beginning at 1:00:38 for those who want a contextual refresher) then concludes his asinine argument by basically saying the defendant must be found guilty, she blatantly nods her obvious agreement (at just a sec or 2 after 1:01:41)! It would terrify me to be a part of the defense and see any member of the court/judicial staff decide the defendant's guilt at any time AND share that opionion openly during a live court session (edit - even without the jury present), particularly when they are sworn into the position under an oath to always presume innocence all the way up to the reading of the verdict (or at the least not openly share that opinion/decision, as it potentially could affect the decision reached by others). At the least, this sort of thing could lead to a mistrial! For example, if she is the Judge's secretary and, while bringing his lunch or something, she convinces the Judge of guilt, which may cause him to make biased objection rulings or something similar. At worst, if this happened n no mistrial was granted, people could receive convictions based on the opinion of one person with little-to-no legal training, solely due to their access to a person in a position of great power who likely relies on and confides in them daily, while also listening to and respecting the opinion of the coworker in order to succeed at work daily... ugh As I'm sure u can tell i was absolutely appalled by her decision to announce that she took a definite side! Maybe its totally fine n I'm making mental leaps that are nonsensical. Maybe its not as big a deal as I think; either way, i think the Judge should just leave his daughter at home from now on (at least so we dont have to stare at somebody who looks like they have fillings n chew tinfoil all day)... LOL, last thing i swear!. I just had the thought that maybe shes not his daughter n instead her job is to straight grill / mean-mug anyone who gets outta order (tho she seems to have forgotten that this punishment should only be doled out in response to some offense committed, and now she just gives dirty looks to everyone, pretty much the whole time, free of charge). Notice how she constantly resting-bitch-face's the whole room? Maybe this Judge's posse/entourage/back-up dancers started out as part of a good cop (i.e. Sheldon/Bill Nye's love-child on the left) / bad cop [i.e. "Glaria," (yes, I gifted her that name using a combo of the word glare + Gloria) aka Aunt Flo being entirely denied any n all chocolate AND Midol] team, OR maybe shes part of one of those shoulder-perched angel/devil situations that the Judge has going on; We may never know...
If no cell phones are allowed in the court for use, then why is the judge on his cell phone? That is ridiculous! You cannot even pay attention when a person life is on the line?
WOW. That "judge" texting while someone is testifying...or at anytime during court, is HORRIBLE. HE'S NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO WHAT'S BEING SAID. Anyone else doing that same thing, would be called OUT on it BIG-TIME.
😂Defense should have asked "do you use the same bibliographies when you testify for the Defense?" Should be able to disqualify him from there no matter the answer.
I smoke about one blunt a day and weed stays in my system for at least 20 days. I know, because even the cheap home tests picks it up that long. I cant imagine a lab couldn't pick it up.
And why would he be reading the highway and safety documents when he is a toxicologist. Those reports have nothing to do with toxicology .. They have to do with officers observation..
Remember, if a pharmacistical company can be sued the DEAs operation of internal medical devices to keep a person from overdosing, and regulated with in legal established limits for that person should be able to sue in the event that a person is being obstructed by the medication management administration, and the personnel overseeing the insurance of that medications administration of the said medication.
i have one question about the turn signal and the dangerous? and any court proceedings at all. isn't a person presumed innocent till proven guilty? with that said it wasn't up to the defendant to prove himself innocent it was up to the crown to prove quilt in which they failed to, so why would the judge refer to the defendant as not proving his innocence?
Some answers are obvious...Once charged, good luck. Guilty or "Not" Guilty either way innocence isn't considered...."Not" Guilty is them absolving the defend-ant
Why do you think lawyers do so many "Sovereign citizen fail videos" -- its gaslighting, because those average Citizens asked the same question and started fighting back. What's the best way for your enemies (The BAR/legal system) to subverts the People's Right's rights? With sabotage and sedition upon those people using the media and creating their own language (legalese)? Something to chew on anyway... I love the Republic, and it's every American Citizen's duty to protect it from invaders, foreign and domestic.
Yeah not just prove guilt but prove guilt (in a traffic infraction) "by a preponderance of the evidence" (Beyond reasonable doubt is for criminal charges)...The prosecution presented a cop's unsubstantiated statementsas it's sole evidence, Doesn't sound particularly 'preponderant' to me, it is classic "he said, she said"
What’s hilarious is how truly clueless any of these people are to cannabis and the effects it has on people. It varies drastically. I wake up and smoke, smoke all day, and go to sleep after smoking. I am very successful, intelligent, articulate, focused, driven, etc. The ignorance is truly too much to anyone with an active brain who cares to actually experience life and natural substances that can be of benefit.
The "Expert" stated that imbibing THC produces "intoxication," otherwise people would not smoke it. But he knows nothing about marijuana consumption. How many inhalations of marijuana are needed, Doctor, to produce intoxication to the point where someone should not drive? Were these deep inhalations to which you refer, Doctor? What if the individual's lungs hand been affected by a life-long cigarette habit? Would that affect the individual's lungs, Doctor? Might that affect the ability of the lungs to transfer THC into the individual? Aren't these variables about this individual that affect the applicability of your analysis to this individual? I've only seen one other supposed expert destroyed like this, and that was the hack forensic Orthodontist from Hattiesburg, MS.
Right. He's not a doctor. He just has degrees, not anything past a Master's. Not that it's bad, but like you said, how can this dude know how pot in his system from whenever + recent .06 BAC, makes this specific defendant be impaired? And the same on that why else would ppl ingest THC, except to get high? Just wow. I guess I've been taking Valium or Klonopin for 20 years now so it'll make me high...no, it doesn't do isht to me. It definitely doesn't make me high, relaxed or not have anxiety! I wish. I take it to raise my seizure threshold & not have to worry about status epilepticus again. This chemistry teacher is just that...he knows about chemistry but I really don't get how he's some great forensic toxicologist. Imo, he's not qualified from the jump.
Now as they thought he was making me suffer the effects of driving below the legal limit, but still under the effects of alcohol beverages from months prior after dinner.. Remotely he administered the medication I did not need back into my blood stream.. I began to show falling eye lids, the trucks systems started alarming continuously.. My texts messages when stopped were no longer understandable. Following directions had to become the passengers obligation. The wind which actually was not that bad though it was in the high mountain ranges, and ice was even more than I could handle on flat non icey highways. THAT'S WHY! Medical negligences, malpractice, ect. . .
For Christ's sakes, people, stop drinking and driving. BUT, if you do, and you get pulled, don't give them any evidence against you! Simply sit there and don't interact. They will pull you out and arrest you, but they are going to do that anyways. They will tell you that they won't, provided you cooperate and do some tests, but they 100% will. Just refuse and don't converse at all. License reg and insurance is all they get. They can't convict with no evidence.
I had conversations with a psychiatrist and therapist ...separate times, asking directly how they prepare reports LE & DA's request from them... Both clearly said they know how to tailor what they say & write, to satisfy those paying for the reports. Otherwise they would not be sought out and they would work no longer..
Inattentive judge due to cell phone use during trial, in full view of the camera. Wrong on so many levels. Pathetic. People are losing their minds over cell phone use by teens in minimum wage jobs. Imagine if in stead of a cold cheeseburger the text could affect you for life.
I think this judge is just rude to be on his phone the whole time. How can he make fair decisions when he is on his phone and not listening to the evidence presented before him
So this is my question. Alcohol can be tested to determine % and time. So if the cop decides to still arrest because cop feels I'm on Marijuana but the last time I smoked pot was the day hefore. Why would I still get charged for driving under the influence of drugs if I was s I sober while driving?
What blew my mind was when the judge said in regards to the turn signal and careless driving, that he would have to side with the Commonwealth since there was no evidence to prove the the defendant was innocent. Since when did courts adopt the presumption of guilt unless proven innocent?
When they stack the law against the people.
specially when if there is any reasonable doubt to prove guilt in which the defense proved.
The courts have always sided with law enforcement unless there’s evidence proving innocence.

You are the “pit bull” lawyer I would want if I ever got in trouble. Amazing job!
Happy to see the judge uses this time to catch up with his phone quite the multitasker
Wouldn't be the first time an "expert witness" was used to convict someone on bogus evidence. Experts shouldn't be taken at their word just because they're experts.
Experts are mostly paid liars nothing more!
14:33 _that moment when it occurs to the judge that his thrilling round of Candy Crush Saga might be noticeable to others_
I would call for a mistrial since the judge is not paying attention. Good grief.
This toxicologist has never studied or experienced THC. As soon as he called thc a cns depressant, he proved his lack of knowledge.
How so?
Cns depressants suppress the nervous system, marijuana is considered a hallucinogenic I believe but certainly doesn't depress the central nervous system, i believe it actually works in a very unique way compared to say opiates alcohol and benzos are all cns depressants and all are much more similar to each other than they are to marijuana. Marijuana stimulates more than depresses.
Someone should give the judge a drug test.
The judge alternates between texting, eating candy or cough drops, coughing, and surfing the web. This guy is a disgrace and hopefully is not re-elected.
Dude, the Judge said he's taking trial notes on his phone during a sidebar.
"The Effects of Cannabis and Alcohol on Driving Performance and Driving Behavior", Simmons et al 2022, a meta-review of 57 studies, looked at among other things the effects of alcohol and THC on "hazard response time" and cannabis was not associated with an increase in hazard response time but alcohol was. The combination of both did not increase hazard response time over what alcohol did alone. The expert claims that THC at the very least has an additive effect when combined with alcohol on reaction time. I would like to see what study he is referencing to conclude that.
I don't know what Planet or Universe you're living in... But here in *_Upside-Down World,_* alls you have to do is declare the "witness" an "Expert", then he magically just gets to say whatever OPINION(s) he wants. But yes, you are correct... If we were living in a Normal Universe, actual witnesses would be required to actually have personal, first-hand knowledge and would be held to only testify to actual FACTS currently within their knowledge. This "witness" here is an absolute *_Clown_* as he's testifying to things completely outside the scope of his discipline & domain of *_Chemistry & Toxicology._* ...And if someone thinks I'm mistaken here, then to demonstrate, alls you would need to do to destroy this *_Clown_* would be to draw a random chemical structure, and ask him to 1st identify it and 2nd, explain its toxilogical effects on the human body. The only person who should be allowed to testify on the "effects of THC" should be an actual Researcher in THC, or, an actual Pothead with years of personal, first-hand knowledge & experience.
It would have compounding effects depending on one's own tolerance for either.. that would be my lifes observational study...
That may be true, but without your observations being controlled and peer reviewed they are just anecdotal. An expert shouldn't render an opinion on anecdotal evidence, at least not without stating so. Besides, he specifically used reaction time as the thing being affected, but a recent meta-analysis refutes that claim. If he had picked lane control instead of reaction time, I would have agreed with him. There are several studies showing how THC exacerbates weaving in one's lane when combined with alcohol.
@@markburry9989 that was the word I was looking for....remember when "masks" were proved "scientifically" because a couple hair dressers clients didn't get sick because hair dressers wore masks...
It was hilarious because few if any scientists would accept anecdotal evidence on its face
@@markburry9989 my general point has to do with tolerance...it's obvious that without tolerance for either one shouldn't drive...however the world is full of bars people with tolerance drive home from every night safely
After seeing the way cops and prosecutors and “expert witnesses” lie, I could probably never convict anyone unless there is direct video evidence of them committing the crime.
Unfortunately, they can now fake videos... (if they really, really wanted to convict someone)...
...Or, the more likely scenario... if they really, really wanted to convince & propagandize something to the masses.
Well realistically the phrase is guilty before proven innocent without ANY reasonable doubts. Now that's pretty hard to reach if it is treated as intended. Just don't say that if you get called for jury duty, act like a normal person who wants to uphold the law and be honest for society. Obviously there's nothing wrong with judging it the way you do, without camera evidence it is fair to have reasonable doubt based on cop/investigator claims. Especially because their whole job is biased to make the person guilty. Kind of a stupid system IMO. But just say that you will uphold the truth and hold everyone at the standards you are supposed to. They don't have to know what that means for you or they will kick you out. But it is morally and objectively correct to have doubt on just testimony based on how often we see cops lie and their inherent bias to want a conviction. That is a reasonable doubt for any normal person, only a fucking idiot would trust testimony of cops and investigators with out any single doubt. If anything I have a LOT of doubt and their words mean nothing. But I won't be explaining that when called for jury duty, I will just say I will uphold the laws to the best of my ability with the information presented.
There was a case out of *_Florida_* ("The Ice-cream Truck Killer") where the Lead Investigator got on the witness stand and could barely speak English: He came across as literally R3T4RDed & botched the investigation at several stages, one of which was to obtain key exculpatory evidence that would have 100% definitively proven either Guilt or Innocence (the Verizon ISP location & data records), and despite this, the jury still convicted the defendant !!!
If they don’t have evidence, they pretend to know the “intent” of a person.
@@nikolaikalashnikov4253disgusting and truly frightening. People are just sh*t.
The Judge sure has no problem texting and playing on his phone!
Is that the ghost of young Abraham Lincoln sitting next to the judge?
Hilarious!
Every judge across the country should unequivocally and explicitly state at the beginning of every trial that LYING will be punished with IMMEDIATE imprisonment.
Human error and lack of memory prevent that reality
This.
And that is why roadside tests are not recommended.... There is nothing that it could add to this mans defense and gives officer chance to make objective statements at trial.
that the judge hoarks his loogies into his kerchief repeatedly, then uses it to cough into....repeatedly...then wipes his face with it IS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING.
plus his constant texting and internet usage instead of using his observation skills to determine whether or not the witness is being truthful is reprehensible.
this "judge" is revolting on a hygiene (personal) level and on a judicial (due process) level.
The DUI guy found a liar.
Capitalism, it's great isn't it lol... they can use our taxes to pay some guy to make stuff up to convict us
DO NOT EVER FORGET IT!!
Just to get em off my personal back about it.. I needed a court proceeding.
Courts ruled that law enforcement officers can lie to citizens and in fact receive tmrvaining on doing that, so how then can the courts find any basis to believe any law enforcement officer? It boggles the mind that courts could belive them
That needs to be included in every case involving police.
Cops only tell true lies.
19:45 a Judge who plays with his phone, instead of listening.....
Abe Lincoln is the law clerk ?
Them kids behind the judge sure are studious
Thank you for showing this.
"Taking trial notes" looks a lot like surfing the internet.
Most people are screw once there case goes to trial. You get as much justice as you can afford.
This is in reference to the female behind the judge, but first a side-note: maybe its cuz i missed the other vids so far in this series, but I struggled to come up with what her job could possibly be... until i decided its just bring ur daughter to work day (omg, which is so like, totes adorbs, btw!). Did anyone else notice that you can pinpoint the exact moment she openly sides with the prosecution in this video!? As the prosecutor presents his argument against the motion for a directed verdict (beginning at 1:00:38 for those who want a contextual refresher) then concludes his asinine argument by basically saying the defendant must be found guilty, she blatantly nods her obvious agreement (at just a sec or 2 after 1:01:41)! It would terrify me to be a part of the defense and see any member of the court/judicial staff decide the defendant's guilt at any time AND share that opionion openly during a live court session (edit - even without the jury present), particularly when they are sworn into the position under an oath to always presume innocence all the way up to the reading of the verdict (or at the least not openly share that opinion/decision, as it potentially could affect the decision reached by others).
At the least, this sort of thing could lead to a mistrial! For example, if she is the Judge's secretary and, while bringing his lunch or something, she convinces the Judge of guilt, which may cause him to make biased objection rulings or something similar. At worst, if this happened n no mistrial was granted, people could receive convictions based on the opinion of one person with little-to-no legal training, solely due to their access to a person in a position of great power who likely relies on and confides in them daily, while also listening to and respecting the opinion of the coworker in order to succeed at work daily... ugh
As I'm sure u can tell i was absolutely appalled by her decision to announce that she took a definite side! Maybe its totally fine n I'm making mental leaps that are nonsensical. Maybe its not as big a deal as I think; either way, i think the Judge should just leave his daughter at home from now on (at least so we dont have to stare at somebody who looks like they have fillings n chew tinfoil all day)...
LOL, last thing i swear!. I just had the thought that maybe shes not his daughter n instead her job is to straight grill / mean-mug anyone who gets outta order (tho she seems to have forgotten that this punishment should only be doled out in response to some offense committed, and now she just gives dirty looks to everyone, pretty much the whole time, free of charge). Notice how she constantly resting-bitch-face's the whole room? Maybe this Judge's posse/entourage/back-up dancers started out as part of a good cop (i.e. Sheldon/Bill Nye's love-child on the left) / bad cop [i.e. "Glaria," (yes, I gifted her that name using a combo of the word glare + Gloria) aka Aunt Flo being entirely denied any n all chocolate AND Midol] team, OR maybe shes part of one of those shoulder-perched angel/devil situations that the Judge has going on;
We may never know...
A Fine post. Clear, good volume great view angles. Lastly, superior litigator. Persevere..
Oh yeah, the guy is a fraud.
Funny at end you had the judges sides be enraptured with your motion
If no cell phones are allowed in the court for use, then why is the judge on his cell phone? That is ridiculous! You cannot even pay attention when a person life is on the line?
Wow. This judge is so bored that he spends all his time on his phone.
The judge seemed more interested in his text messages than the trial / hearing
WOW. That "judge" texting while someone is testifying...or at anytime during court, is HORRIBLE. HE'S NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO WHAT'S BEING SAID. Anyone else doing that same thing, would be called OUT on it BIG-TIME.
Like the video Larry but wish you could have enhanced the volume but understand that you probably couldn't.
Great job dude 😎
Vast Quantities. Excellent.
I'm glad everything is going so well that the Judge can stop paying attention to the court and send some texts.
I wouldn't want an "expert witness" who gives off the creep vibe testifying on my side...
😂Defense should have asked "do you use the same bibliographies when you testify for the Defense?" Should be able to disqualify him from there no matter the answer.
Honest Abe Great Granson sitting there behind the judge with the Bowtie.
🤣
Context, please… Why the hell is that judge on the phone the entire time?
I smoke about one blunt a day and weed stays in my system for at least 20 days.
I know, because even the cheap home tests picks it up that long.
I cant imagine a lab couldn't pick it up.
Well done!
Professional liar for the government
The judge is playing Tetris on his phone.
And why would he be reading the highway and safety documents when he is a toxicologist. Those reports have nothing to do with toxicology .. They have to do with officers observation..
This paid expert is obviously not used to being challenged, he has met his match.
Remember, if a pharmacistical company can be sued the DEAs operation of internal medical devices to keep a person from overdosing, and regulated with in legal established limits for that person should be able to sue in the event that a person is being obstructed by the medication management administration, and the personnel overseeing the insurance of that medications administration of the said medication.
...What ? ...What are you talking about ? ...Can you elaborate ?
Tell me you’ve never smoked marijuana, without telling me you’ve never smoked marijuana.
@@jeffwinburn1283 ha ha
i have one question about the turn signal and the dangerous? and any court proceedings at all. isn't a person presumed innocent till proven guilty? with that said it wasn't up to the defendant to prove himself innocent it was up to the crown to prove quilt in which they failed to, so why would the judge refer to the defendant as not proving his innocence?
Is Canada,,,,,,have to prove innocents ,,,,not America 😮
Some answers are obvious...Once charged, good luck. Guilty or "Not" Guilty either way innocence isn't considered...."Not" Guilty is them absolving the defend-ant
Why do you think lawyers do so many "Sovereign citizen fail videos" -- its gaslighting, because those average Citizens asked the same question and started fighting back. What's the best way for your enemies (The BAR/legal system) to subverts the People's Right's rights? With sabotage and sedition upon those people using the media and creating their own language (legalese)?
Something to chew on anyway... I love the Republic, and it's every American Citizen's duty to protect it from invaders, foreign and domestic.
Yeah not just prove guilt but prove guilt (in a traffic infraction) "by a preponderance of the evidence" (Beyond reasonable doubt is for criminal charges)...The prosecution presented a cop's unsubstantiated statementsas it's sole evidence,
Doesn't sound particularly 'preponderant' to me, it is classic "he said, she said"
When the judge said ‘Siri’, Siri on my ipad activated 😂😂😂
"If you're going to be my bench clerk, you're going to need to wear bowties."
What’s hilarious is how truly clueless any of these people are to cannabis and the effects it has on people. It varies drastically. I wake up and smoke, smoke all day, and go to sleep after smoking. I am very successful, intelligent, articulate, focused, driven, etc. The ignorance is truly too much to anyone with an active brain who cares to actually experience life and natural substances that can be of benefit.
And learning how judge Neal works!
The "Expert" stated that imbibing THC produces "intoxication," otherwise people would not smoke it. But he knows nothing about marijuana consumption.
How many inhalations of marijuana are needed, Doctor, to produce intoxication to the point where someone should not drive?
Were these deep inhalations to which you refer, Doctor?
What if the individual's lungs hand been affected by a life-long cigarette habit?
Would that affect the individual's lungs, Doctor?
Might that affect the ability of the lungs to transfer THC into the individual?
Aren't these variables about this individual that affect the applicability of your analysis to this individual?
I've only seen one other supposed expert destroyed like this, and that was the hack forensic Orthodontist from Hattiesburg, MS.
Right. He's not a doctor. He just has degrees, not anything past a Master's. Not that it's bad, but like you said, how can this dude know how pot in his system from whenever + recent .06 BAC, makes this specific defendant be impaired? And the same on that why else would ppl ingest THC, except to get high? Just wow. I guess I've been taking Valium or Klonopin for 20 years now so it'll make me high...no, it doesn't do isht to me. It definitely doesn't make me high, relaxed or not have anxiety! I wish. I take it to raise my seizure threshold & not have to worry about status epilepticus again. This chemistry teacher is just that...he knows about chemistry but I really don't get how he's some great forensic toxicologist. Imo, he's not qualified from the jump.
Why do I get the feeling that the “expert” has never even tried marijuana !!!!
Shades of scare movies from the 1970s!
Now as they thought he was making me suffer the effects of driving below the legal limit, but still under the effects of alcohol beverages from months prior after dinner..
Remotely he administered the medication I did not need back into my blood stream..
I began to show falling eye lids, the trucks systems started alarming continuously..
My texts messages when stopped were no longer understandable. Following directions had to become the passengers obligation. The wind which actually was not that bad though it was in the high mountain ranges, and ice was even more than I could handle on flat non icey highways.
THAT'S WHY!
Medical negligences, malpractice, ect. . .
Bro what
@@TheKyleCostello im thinking the same. i guess drugs affect everyone differently
For Christ's sakes, people, stop drinking and driving.
BUT, if you do, and you get pulled, don't give them any evidence against you! Simply sit there and don't interact. They will pull you out and arrest you, but they are going to do that anyways. They will tell you that they won't, provided you cooperate and do some tests, but they 100% will. Just refuse and don't converse at all. License reg and insurance is all they get. They can't convict with no evidence.
What is the judge doing on his phone?
Why is this Judge playing with his phone during this trial? Isn't it his JOB to pay attention to what is being said in his courtroom?
I had conversations with a psychiatrist and therapist ...separate times, asking directly how they prepare reports LE & DA's request from them... Both clearly said they know how to tailor what they say & write, to satisfy those paying for the reports. Otherwise they would not be sought out and they would work no longer..
This dirty judge wants to punish this man no matter what is proven or disproven. Very bad judge!!!
Your a hell of an attorney young man
Was he found not guilty of DUI? I hope!!
The cross dresser in the black robe would lose his shit if anybody else had their phone out, let alone texting.
Never trust anyone with a hyphen in their name.
Where does the state get the money for an expert? It's a frigging misdemeanor. Is this a death or serious injury case?
But if you have a problem with the inner ear that has been caused by high blood pressure for long time to cause tinetus
And he got a first in telling lies from Harvard .
He didn't get ish from Harvard 😂
It would be nice if the judge could get off his phone.
😂 why the fug is that judge so focused on his phone
Why is this judge texting a lot of the time. His mic is picking it up
Why is the judge on the phone the entire time.
Why is the judge on his cell phone,? Is this common?
All those degrees...yet...no backbone.
Or medical degree. Is a forensic toxicology chemist the same as a medical doctor? 🤔
What was the outcome 😊😊😊😊
This court case is outrageous
Just a mockery 😂😂😂
Judge has no interest whatsoever
can you ask for a jury trial for a dui case?? This judge is clearly not paying attention to this case. nice cross examination
Yes.
The Hon. Earle-Ray Neal must self manage his State Funded IRA.
Inattentive judge due to cell phone use during trial, in full view of the camera. Wrong on so many levels. Pathetic.
People are losing their minds over cell phone use by teens in minimum wage jobs. Imagine if in stead of a cold cheeseburger the text could affect you for life.
Bud Light? Lock him up!
Why is the judge playing on his cell phone?
The Judge has his thumps going pretty fast. Is he getting a golf lesson maybe.
So he blew under the legal limit and has 3 ng of thc in his blood, qnd theyre really trying to give the guy a dui?
Love the worm thumbnail lol
I think this judge is just rude to be on his phone the whole time. How can he make fair decisions when he is on his phone and not listening to the evidence presented before him
So this is my question. Alcohol can be tested to determine % and time. So if the cop decides to still arrest because cop feels I'm on Marijuana but the last time I smoked pot was the day hefore. Why would I still get charged for driving under the influence of drugs if I was s I sober while driving?
