I also hate this attorneys mannerisms and questioning. he asks ridiculously stupid questions and then puts his hands over his mouth in a 'prayer' position, really obnoxious. At least West's shitty questions have a soothing voice. | ||

His hands are betraying his frustration with the witness not simply telling the truth that the animation is an estimation based on the defenses theory of events. NOT an accurate depiction of the most recent courtroom testimony in full as it is likely to be purported to be to the jury. | ||

I think the questioning was leading to the idea that the animation portrays pieces like positioning without appropriate evidence to support them. Not sure what the threshold is for how knowingly inaccurate it can be and still get admitted | ||

It's like the defense makes theories based on evidence and the prosecution tries to pook holes in it, disproving the defenses theories without offering any reasonable theories themselves. I'm not sure how you convict someone of 2nd degree murder without doing anything 'offensive'. edit; what's also comical about this entire process is the fact that the prosecution (for this trial) is trying to discredit these types of reenactment videos and the methods used to create them, when I'd bet $1,000 they have used these exact methods for their own cases in the past. Such a silly game the justice system can be. | ||

Let's just have that black lady from that CNN show re-enact it for us again. Two gunshots and all. Seems legit. | ||
