Rittenhouse prosecution may be in DEEP SHIT

[Remodeling Maidiac]

Intentionally altering evidence? The judge wants the prosecutor to testify under oath.

They showed the zoomed in portion without objection. Whether or not the defense copy was compressed is hardly a smoking gun. The defense argument is a weak sauce that if we had known the video was so damning we would have tried a different trial tactic.

There is evidence that the prosecutors intentionally altered the video. That is a crime and a violation of the defendents constitutional rights if true.

Hopefully they are punished....with jail time....not just harsh words

No one should be ok with a prosecutor altering evidence, planting evidence, withholding evidence, etc.....

They manipulated it to look like he threatened/provoked when Pole Man got in front of him.

Most people, including the judge, wont see it that way.

Come on man!! They're Democrats... Don't you know yet? Dem's rarely are prosecuted for their illegal and criminal acts...

The prosecution is over but the longer the jury takes in deliberation, usually the better it is for the defendant.

The left mainstreamed fabricating evidence when the Democrats presented fake emails in court (that they had altered) to try to impeach Trump.

Disbarment permanently with at least 2 years served jail time.

This is VERY serious and should NEVER be tolerated for any reason.

The judge is going to allow the jury to make it's decision, then he'll decide whether to declare a mistrial.

 

[task0778]

You just can't withhold any evidence from the defense in a murder trial, or any trial for that matter. To me it smacks of prosecutorial misconduct, which might be tainted with political motives. I don't know enough to say it is grounds for a mistrial, certainly if Rittenhouse is found guilty of anything then his defense attorneys will surely appeal, but Geez. Our system of justice is in the minds of many being weaponized for political purposes to the extent that is possible, from the DOJ/FBI to the courts. Whether that is true or not, the possibility that enough people believe it does not bode well for our society.

The latest information is that a Sheriff's Deputy caught an individual video taping a juror this morning. The phone was taken the video erased and returned to the owner. No charges were filed.
Grim news... Threats to jurors is Jury Tampering....IS AGAINST THE LAW.
As usual criminal action by the Left is glassed over.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

This is looking very similar to the Duke Lacrosse case.

 

[Richard-H]

The fact that the defense waited until the jury had been deliberating for so long indicates that they believe Rittenhouse will be found guilty.

The defense could have asked for a mistrial based on the poor quality of video long before this. They apparently feel that the long deliberations are not a good omen for them.

The real question is whether the lower quality video was so low that it really would have made a difference in the trial. None of us really know the answer to that.

If the judge declares a mistrial, then the whole fiasco will start all over again. In the long run, a new trial probably won't make a difference, but in the short run it's better than just accepting a guilty verdict.

Actually it's worse than that. A young man's life hangs in the balance for taking out the garbage.

What do you mean "they're" Democrats??

Here is an example of both manufacturing evidence and prosecutors withholding evidence and outright lying....

Racist arrests in Tulia, Texas | American Civil Liberties Union

One of the most BLATANT instances of police and prosecutor misconduct in modern history......you know, real CRT stuff...


Not a single prosecutor got punished....the racist cop who framed more than 30 people (some of them receiving 70 yr prison sentences) -- that guy got an award....but one thing he didn't get, was put in jail for doing what he did...



It wasn't until later -- thru the hard work of many people (including the current US Deputy Attorney General, Vanita Gupta) that these people were proven innocent and Governor Perry was forced to sign a bill to release these people.....

These prosecutors and cops were CLEARLY not liberals....did it upset you that they were never punished?? Nope....

Good chance you never heard about this case until I told you....

The prosecution didn't give them the video until after the jury was deliberating.

They did not realize their video was different until Friday. Also, if it is dismissed with prejudice he can never be tried again.

What makes you think that the person that took the video was 'the left'? Would it surprise you to know that some right-wingers know how to make video recordings?

Right now, any disruption to this trial favors the defense.
