I have NEVER seen a judge being treated so disrespectfully.
That is the way America is today-NO respect is given to anyone- Cops are crapped on, teachers are crapped on, people drive like there is no one but them and people walk blindly everywhere and no one shows other people courtesy unless they want something and worst of all they believe everything Nora O'Donnell tells them on the nightly news.
they are jealous
they chose to DEFEND in such a manner… it’s evil actually the way they acted and flipped the bird and laughed and pointed…. evil yes the court is about facts and EVIDENCE… but in your spirit the pit of your gut that God gave to everyone you know that the evil one is having a field day… attacking everyone.. I looked at that lady in the long sleeve in the back she smirked behind one of the victim impact statements I don’t know who she was.. but she was clearly on cruz’s or the defense team’s side… it was disrespectful
So you didn't watch the Waukesha parade case, I presume.
It is her fault for not preventing it.
The way they dont answer the judge is really disrespectful
Exactly!! I was saying 🗣”ANSWER HER QUESTION!”
They’re whole demeanour towards her this trail was disrespectful & I hate to say it but I don’t think it’d be the case if she was a man.
@@Summer09824 remember the judge for the heard trial. Everyone respected her, even though she wasn't a man... hate to say it but some people are just disrespectful
@@Summer09824 The losing side is usually just disrespectful in general, it has little effect what gender eeither side is. The DA Rittenhouse Trial, one of the defense attorney's in the Heard trial, here, and the Ahmaud Arbery trial
@@godominus9222 look at her other comments on the channel. Lol I get the feeling that she doesn't hate to point out her gender politics as much as she claims 🤣
The fact that she is also younger than most of the lawyers and she has to tell them to get their act together 😂😂😂
That's the real problem, they don't have respect. The fact that she tried to give her resume of practicing for over 20 years, says it all.
@@toridavis8335 she’s only a judge because her father is politically connected. The fact her husband was convicted of dealing cocaine also calls her judgment into question. There’s no reason to treat people the way she does.
She has had so much Botox she can’t form her forehead into a frown. She is a harpie In her 40s with lots of money and work done
@@itsmefrisco you’re right, it’s outrageous. I don’t know if she thinks this is her moment to audition for a television show or what. I have seen so many clips where this judge is clearly in the wrong, and the comments are filled with “yas, queen!” Anyone who practices law can see that this judge’s behavior is out of line and shouldn’t be commended. I feel like it should be obvious to everyone, but the comments have shown that most laypeople view trials as entertainment and have no understanding of our judicial system.
@@itsmefrisco do you have any proof of these claims ?
No wonder it took 4 years to wrap this case up, this poor judge has to put up with such immaturity...
the entire system sucks. The killer got to live or at least be trialed for another 4 years when this victims didn't get to live for another moment rofl
I think the defending lawyers knew there was no way in hell they were ever winning that case so the best could do is stall for as long as possible, and they did a damn good job at that, not that I agree with em but they did a really good job of stalling
Why would a judge Tolerate such immature behavior from her defense team
I'm a court reporter. This is INSANE. Never see this kind of disrespect from attorneys towards a judge. I'm wondering it's got to be because she's young, pretty, and a woman. It seems like a lot of the attorneys have a problem taking orders from someone younger than them. Male judges are never, absolutely never treated like this.
And yet this female Judge rules with such class. Such distinction. Defense tried to break her and make her look bad but they made themselves look like a team of quacks.
I don’t usually support the claims that women get less respect than men. I think, as a woman, we need to assert ourselves and set clear and concise boundaries. It does happen, but my approach is to blatantly ignore it and have zero tolerance for it. I also show others the same respect I am demanding. This is not one of those times. I do not believe the defense’s behavior would have been like this if the judge was a man. The total lack of respect and professionalism was mind blowing. This judge should be praised for the way she kept the trial on track, despite numerous attempts by the defense to derail it. These attorneys are utter garbage, as lawyers and as people.
Not disagreeing with you but how did you come to that conclusion?
I’m a court reporter too!
Here we go again 😂 you can never have enough women on the other side to undermine this moronic notion of yours, can you? You just WANNA feel like the world discriminates against you because you’re a woman 😑 It’s honestly kinda pathetic. What about Judge Judy? What about the judge during the Depp trials? What about the millions of female judges and attorneys who’ve been doing this job for decades? You’re statement is ridiculous and attention seeking
I really like this judge - I don’t think she’s out of line. The defense has been all over the place. I feel really bad for the victim’s families having to deal with this stupidity
Agreed
She shouldve sentenced him long ago. Instead shes sitting there asking dumb questions so she can sit in front of the country. I assure you he wouldve been sentenced to D💀 a year ago if this was a male judge.
Shes taking in all of the attention
@@RezidueWithaZ I guarantee you know nothing about the law and are only saying what you're saying because your feelings are hurt.
@Hesh Hesherson lmfao. I have lawyers in my family bro.
Absolutely
Judge is so solid and doesnt take crap.
I love her 😍
Were this not a high profile case with a defendant no one wants to be seen as even indirectly defending, she'd likely be facing an ethics inquiry over her unprofessional behavior and obvious bias against the defendant and his defense.
@@possumverde really ive seen way worse from judges .. Ethics charge lol considering you didnt say one thing the lawyers were doing for the defendents as the judge pointed out over and over , THEY should have ethics charges with one of them being kicked out. What are you, a mayor? you in charge of the judges and able to judge what is ethic and not? Please dont tell me you are a lawyer. The closest word in the dictionary to lawyer is liar.
For those that don’t understand what the defense did wrong, watch the video Steve Lehto did on it. Basically they acted like they were gonna have 40 witnesses, which would have taken weeks to get through. Instead, they then abruptly rest their case and the state - who expected to not call their witnesses for a long time and did not bring them to court that day, could not and were ready. Not their fault. Just some type of scheme played by the defense. And the judge called them out on it
The prosecution calls their witnesses BEFORE the defence. After the defence rests the prosecution can bring in any rebuttal witnesses and if there aren’t any it goes straight to closing arguments. The defence acted in the best interest of their client.
This judge was unprofessional and showed outright contempt for the defence. It was bizarre to see her argue with the defence. She appeared argumentative, unprofessional and overwhelmed with the requirements of her position.
It is up to the defence whether or not to decide to rest. They decided to do it early. This judge should have asked about the status of witnesses well before then to ensure that court scheduling was progressing. She failed to do that.
Thank you for explaining!! I was hoping there would be a comment explaining it. :)
Thanks for the explanation.
If the prosecution isn't ready, then that is on them. I doubt they would hold up the trial if the defense said that they weren't yet prepared. The judge was extremely unprofessional.
She needs to fine these lawyers for contempt.
The judge is the best in the district and she won't get replaced. I love how she says we're not playing chess.
She actually said “chest”.
@@robmullin1128 you have to be clowning rn on god
@@robmullin1128 - if you hear chest, and you go back and told yourself, yeah, that sounds about right… don’t you think there something wrong with your IQ?
@@robmullin1128 The judge wanted to know the next witness which the state didn’t have ready but was at the time saying “it’s not important rn” or something along that. Which then the judge said. This isn’t chess meaning you can tell me the next witness as it won’t effect their next move. As in chess you can’t tell ur appointments anything, or well shouldn’t. Then the state person in charge for “22 years” starts rudely arguing with a judge that outranks her entirely.
Best in the district? Her husband was caught selling cocaine and she’s only on the bench because her daddy got her there.
I don’t understand the hate for this judge, i think she is great. Rational and a genuine person.
It’s because of sexism.
Young, attractive, female, and assertive with power. Incels can't stand it.
Where’s the hate? I see nothing but good things plus she’s a sexy judge lol what’s to hate
It's not Judge Judy, she shouldn't be getting all rude and condescending. She needs to stay calm and be un biased. I would hate to have her as ny judge I can tell she is very biased very often most likely.
@@chriswilson1968 do you know what this kid has done?
The moment you have to announce how long youve been working as a defense, you’re immediately a Karen.
😂
I didn’t know you could speak to a judge like this
You can, but you shouldn’t (see exhibit A)
They are trying to get a mistrial or provoke something they can use to get an appeal IMHO. She is not taking the bait and it is driving them crazy.
@@tenofprime I bet the defense also hates the fact that the judge is really good looking and they are not.
@Damien Montero here (.) you could use a couple of these
@Damien Montero she as the judge can absolutely let lawyers know when they are wasting the courts time and point out the things they have done wrong. Most judges may not but she can absolutely call them out on their bs as long as the jury isn’t present as not to sway their opinions on the lawyers since it’s not part of the actual case.
The defense wasted everyone’s time, and there was no reason for them to play coy about their decision to rest.
Jurors were called away from their jobs (and probably aren’t getting paid more than a couple bucks to be there), and the defense couldn’t give the Court advanced notice of their decision to cut their witness list by greater than half to avoid that? I understand the Court’s frustration here; it was very unprofessional.
I think the time wasted this day is outweighed by the time it would have taken to call 40 more witnesses
As someone who’s been called before it definitely sucks being taken away from work and having to drive who knows where to serve as a juror. Its not an honor its an inconvenience. And I for one would not like to be a part of this case if they can’t get their business together.
@@hp2474 Yes, but if they called 40 more witnesses that's not "wasted" time, that is what they are there for. This was an unnecessary delay and a complete waste of taxpayer dollars, the time of the hundreds of people that make that proceeding happen every day, and a day longer that everyone invested in this trial has to unnecessarily wait for closure. Furthermore, I think part of their idea was to embarrass the state by making them look unprepared (which I think was part of what the chess reference was referring to), but the judge rightly called them out on that. So this was disrespectful, costly, and just generally scummy lawyering.
@@Lets.Go.Brandon Yeah, they will still have used less taxpayer money than if they called 40 more people. Their decision to abruptly rest doesn’t delay closure. I respect your opinion. I don’t think they expected the judge to force the State to immediately start closing arguments after they rested. This is just my opinion, but it seems the judge is furious that the defense didn’t extend her and the prosecution a common courtesy. Usually if one side closes early they will let the other parties know outside of the courtroom so that it isn’t a shocker. Also just my opinion, but I think the judge has taken all of the calls for a mistrial as a personal affront to her abilities when it’s just a common strategy in DP cases.
@@Lets.Go.Brandon - You make solid points on each part of this horrific move by the defense. I would add that the defense attorney who was assigned to tell the Court about this (poorly thought out) decision sounded personally unsure of this strategy & in presenting it to the Court, sounded as uncommitted as possible. This strategy showed poor thinking and decision making on the part of the defense. For me, the Smell Test in this situation involves asking yourself if you would want this defense team representing you in court. My answer is a resounding No.
those defense “ attorneys” need to be disbarred IMMEDIATELY!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 and that Judge needs to order a mandatory psychologically evaluation, before they even pick up a file from a file cabinet.
Or at least face steep sanctions.
I agree. They are like high school kids annoying defense
Unfortunately the defendant has an easy set up for a mistrial- that his lawyers created a hostile atmosphere that colored the ruling
I really like this judge. She doesn’t tolerate any nonsense. I’m from Parkland and the support to the victims and their families is appreciated. Peace and love to all. ☮️❤️
Dhyanawaad Anjali ji
the attorney in the pink i think is the one who always tries to defend herself with personal information like "I have kids to take care of" or "I've been practicing in this county for 22 years" like yada yada lady, get over yourself and fess up to your mistakes
I have never seen a judge be treated in this manner. The amount of videos ive seen of this case, and she had to repeat herself SO many times. I could not keep my composure as well as she did this WHOLE ordeal. I dont know where this defense finds their audacity.
Audacity is required when there is clearly an absence of professionalism and integrity.
This judge is awesome.. & the defense team is def unprofessional
Wow, the lawyer stormed out when she didn't like things? Jeez, I had no idea real lawyers could be so unprofessional.
I know....and wearing headphones? What's that about. But this from a defense caught fingering the prosecution while giggling and laughing with a murder.
I wouldn’t call that an outburst. That was a professional and confident way to address a problem and set boundaries. I think calling it an outburst is a subtle but evident form of sexism. When men in power get angry, we attach their power to their anger. We respect it. But when women in power get angry, their anger seems to detract from their credibility in the eyes of media, instead of it also being attached to their power. The headline should read Judge Puts Nikolas Cruz Lawyers in Their Place.
This 100% she is roasting them for being unprofessional in the workplace, not having a tantrum
That title is a click bait 🤣
Oh my G- 😂😂😂 *cough, cough*
The “We aren’t playing chess” comment was snippy, childish and unnecessary. It was emotional, very rude and kind of mean.
That isn’t how a judge should behave. Most men would never act that way, but if they did, they’d be chastised, too.
Being a woman doesn’t mean you can behave like a bratty teenage girl and nobody should say anything.
The defense knew they had a snowballs chance in hell to get the Parkland shooter acquitted, so they resorted to fouling....
She is an excellent judge. She really shows a lot of patience for having to deal with such a frustrating bunch of people.
I cannot understand how these lawyers get away with their level of contempt. I'm from the UK so I probably don't understand the legal system in the USA, but the sort of behaviour I've seen in this court would never be tolerated in a UK criminal court. Some of these defence lawyers wouldn't be practicing the very next day following that behaviour.
Why is this trial taking too long. The shooter literally went back for some of the other (already) injured students and made sure he finished them. If that doesn’t say death sentence, I don’t know what does.
Plus,Cruz also already accepted the guilt
@@user-hg2kd1nz4l Again, this is not to determine guilt. It is to determine his penalty. Should he get life in prison or be put to death? He doesn’t want to die, but others don’t want him to live. That’s what they’re debating over. You can’t just execute someone the moment they say “I’m guilty”.
Its time for a barbecue
JUDGE IS RIGHT ON TARGET!
This judge is no nonsense I absolutely love her she was the perfect judge for this case she she's not allowing them to get away with any of their BS and putting them in their place
Umm where can I see more of this judge presiding over cases? She is amazing! 👏 👏 👏
🤣
There are tons of videos involving this case and a surprising number of them are about her dealing with these immature lawyers
Apparently from a legal perspective, she is (supposedly) not very good and kinda botched the case. Apparently it would have been much easier to prosecute, but the judge kept messing up. Theatrics don't necessarily translate into efficacy.
@@FastlaneProductions1 yeah but she could absolutely get it though.
@@DaBlaccGhost lmao fair enough
What is with AT THIS TIME THE DEFENSE RESTS. Does she intend on unresting at some other time? This whole trial has been a WASTE of taxpayers dollars. He plead guilty. Give him ole Sparky!
Sparky lmao love it
The judge is expression frustration on behalf of our community. Her prerogative is to follow procedure niceties and rule in the name of the law. This defence attorney clearly is showing disrespect to the court by her unprofessionalism.
Then the judge should deal with it in a respectful manner befitting one who sits on the bench, not flip out like a teenage girl and make smartass comments.
I think a little too impassioned for a judge. Can create impression of bias.
You would likely not make those comments if the judge as a white male
If I was the defendant I would be really upset that no one was ready for the trial.
The defendant shot like 34 people. He doesn't deserve sympathy nor does he feel entitled to be upset at people. If he doesn't like court don't shoot people. Simple.
@@JoshuaYuan36 I think you completely missed the mark on what Robyn was saying lol no one's giving him sympathy but if I had a trial for ANYTHING I'd want to be sure my defence team is 100% strong and ready and I'd be pissed off if they weren't. No one here gave or suggested sympathy for him lol
@@JoshuaYuan36 whether he deserves sympathy is irrelevant. He is legally entitled to a fair trial. This is not that.
@@JoshuaYuan36 OK MIKEY THANKS FOR THE INSIGHT
@@joshuafoster8726 Definitely agree with your statement. Everyone has the right to a fair and speedy trial .
This will form the basis of grounds for a retrial. The judge even states that she’s never experienced such unprofessionalism as she’s seen by the defense. If her statement is accurate, as it should be as it’s made by a judge during a trial, then Cruz has all the evidence he needs to claim his defense was incompetent. If his defense is deemed to have been competent then the judge must not be as proven by making such a statement .
Some people have said that is precisely what the defense lawyers were doing. It's pretty much a slam dunk for him to appeal when even the judge calls his lawyers out. Delays always benefit the defendant.
@@Mybpeterson the lawyers should be brought to the BAR committee if that’s the case. The guys is a scumbag.
Dangerous as a strategy, no? There can be professional repercussions for them to try that, right?
Unprofessional is not the same as incompetent. Rudeness, for example, doesn't equate to the inability to adequately defend one's client.
@@stevenichols2938 depends if the rudeness might prejudice the jury. The animosity between the judge and the defense can not be inconsequential. There’s no way that the verdict of this trial will stand for long.
Only in Florida… what an embarrassing group of lawyers and human beings. If I dare call them that.
She looks young for a judge so I can imagine how hard of a time she might get from experienced lawyers.
Looks old to me. Late 30s to 40
@@ballershanelle yes but youre also 12

The victims families deserve so much more than such unprofessional and bigotry behavior. It’s like they don’t care, especially the lady in pink. “I’ve been working for 20 plus years” okay and? That would give her more of a reason to know what the hell she’s doing but nope. How unfortunate.
They are sick, seems like buying him time . The judge is trying to do her job.
The defense is trying to confuse everything and are playing games so that they an declare a mistrial.
0:56 You can tell the girl in pink is nervous asf 😂
I actually feel sorry for this judge.
Our Court System doesn't just lack competent organization, it's inexcusable.
And then on July 28, 2023 the Florida Supreme Court disagreed with every commentator posting here and ordered this judge to be publicly reprimanded for her poor judicial demeanor in this case. The judge, seeing what was coming, resigned before the ruling but the Supreme Court ordered the reprimand to proceed anyways.
Yes, and the reprimand means she will never be a judge again. She is now working for her Daddy in his law firm.
@@LunaLapin-ho5tkYou seem awfully obsessed with her. How many weeks have you been camping under this video lol 😂😂😂
how the hell is anyone defending the lawyers in this?
Because it seems like strategically they are winning. Lawyers aren't saints that do the right thing. They are greedy and malicious to do whatever it takes to win or enter a stalemate.
Because lots of people who don't understand how anything works have been conditioned to believe that everyone wants to know their nonsense opinion. All of this is entertainment for them, and they chatter amongst themselves like the judge is the season villain and the lawyer is the scrappy underdog. People are mostly stupid.
Welcome to Earth !
No one is saying that what they are doing is right or good. We are saying that it is effective. Her lack of judicial maturity to see that they are playing her in order to garner a retrial is hard to watch. Defense wins in the appeal. That's not a good result for anyone and the judges approach has brought it on.
@@taxidermydavid yes they are. You need to learn to read the room.
She is very well put together
She sure is 😏
In more ways than one...
@@maximusprime3459 🤣😂🤣
First of all, she's a judge. Why is the defense team playing games with these case? The defense team wasn't even prepared for the day. If I was that judge, I'd jail the lawyer for wasting everyone's time.
They need to act right. You got an insane child killer there who needs to go to jail for life. Get it right.
If the lawyer has been doing all that to the judge she should hold the lawyer in contempt.
Why is no one reeeeeady? 🤣
To anyone saying the judge was the unprofessional one should really educate themselves more on the processes of the CJS. Watch more than one video, and watch actual lawyers respond to this incident. Maybe then some of you may not come across as ignorant in your comments.
Why don’t you be specific instead of just calling everyone uneducated?
@@oofowie8882 Because it's not their job to be specific. If you're going to complain about something, it's YOUR responsibility to find this information first. Else you have no basis for a complaint in the first place.
To be nice, I'll give you one little tidbit: Everything about a trial is scheduled ahead of time. It is NEVER supposed to be a surprise when the defense or plaintiff rests. Part of this involves scheduling. Lawyers don't tell their witnesses to come to court every single day a case is going on. They know AHEAD OF TIME what day they are going to be there. Questions are also prepared ahead of time. So for someone to rest without warning? Disrupts everything. Finding a judge that being dodgy or abrupt with won't tick off would be rare, because you've just made the day hell for literally everyone involved because you've essentially took a giant dump on decorum.
And this is just the brief overview version. It gets a lot more complicated if you actually care to learn rather than impose your fantasies on what the court is, what it does and why. In fact, this video itself brings up my brief overview around 1:23 ish, so just actually watching the video would give you a hint of what's going on.
@@KuariThunderclaw yeah I didn’t read past the first sentence of your comment because you are insufferable and pretentious 🤷♂️
@Roy Mars weird comment lol, I’m just saying if they’re gonna call people uneducated then explain why
@Roy Mars the op was definitely not specific. Go pick an internet fight with someone else you angsty little weirdo 🤣
No matter how she is treated as a judge she should maintain dignity and decorum and should stay calm and professional at all times. Go look at how the judge behaved in the Ted Bundy case. She is obviously emotionally affected by the case and should have been taken off it.
She got in trouble for showing bias and isn't allowed to try high profile cases any longer.
Judges shouldn’t be emotional. They should be professional at all times. It is their responsibility to be a fair administrator of the law and convey stable authority.
Judge: Bring the jury in
Defense: aight imma head out now
Unbelievable
The lawyers are just plain jealous of her! Prettier and more successful! And of course younger.
The judge has the right to put the lawyer in jail for contempt. What kind of bs is this. Defendant pled guilty game over. This lawyer needs to put on her big girl clothes and learn to be a lawyer.
lol...no
@@commandingsteel so look it up. It does not happen often but yes a defense attorney can be held in contempt. In this case the attorney deserves it. Just from her attitude from the beginning.

@@commandingsteel there defending a psychopath end of story. His mommy was a drunk does not cut it. Quit wasting money on this. Game over. 50 years in jail is not what the taxpayer’s deserve.
I don't think you understand what you are talking about.
"Just because you've been doing something for a long time doesn't mean you're good at it."
The defense was just trying to get the Judge to act inappropriately to get a mistrial.
The judge got into trouble for showing bias. If the defense had not won the trial, the verdict would have been overturned
It’s a very straightforward question worthy of a straightforward answer. And if you don’t know what you do Is you ask to approach and explain the problem.
When your defense team gets their law degrees from online universities 😂😂😂
Despite the disrespect - you have to give credit to the defense team.
They managed to play the court, delay, and attempt to misinform - all to build the grounds for mistrial, hung jury, and or aquital
Can you elaborate?
And none of that happened. Instead, Cruz will die in prison and any appeal will fall on deaf ears.
@@PeerKristijan any of the above in my comment, could be used to appeal and/or demand mistrial and could result with a hung jury - especially if the appeal is seen over a sympathetic judge
The argument that the judge is no longer being impartial
Of course it’s a long stretch but grounds nevertheless
EVERY MEMBER OF THIS DEFENSE TEAM SHOULD BE ASHAMED of themselves……imagine a Defense Attorney giving the middle finger to a Judge, the camera or whomever/whatever …A good friend of mine once said, "there is a separate SPECIAL room in hell for some Attorneys (not all) just those who represent mass murderers, rapist and child molesters….
Get it!
Okay - initially I was a little uncertain on this judge but I'm all in now. Amazing job.
I feel like they don't take the Judge seriously cause she's "younger?" IDK
Younger and a woman. If this was an older male judge, no way would they be acting like twats to him
@@elenalizabeth absolutely
Wow. How does Gordon Weeks and his staff still have jobs as lawyers?
Clearly, passing the bar exam doesn't equate to actually being competent or showing any traces of professionalism.
And yet, you can still manage to find work as a defense attorney in Broward County.
You do know the defense won this case.
Incompetence at it finest. Get ‘em judge!
If I am on the rude side: Way toooo many attorney's. Why is there literally a whole flock sitting like overpaid ducks just forgetting what this case is about. If they can't stand the preasure they should dip into another pond. Poor poor judge.
This woman is not judge material. She thinks she is running a kindy raffle. All she does is tantrum after tantrum.
I want the full length video it was getting good
She lost anyway... Rigged jury makes the whole trial irrelevant
Rigged how so? I thought it was incredible they didn't sentence him to death, literally better in every single way to lofe in prison in this instance but I've seen MUCH more stupid, so in a way, I guess I'm not as mad because the jury wasn't THAT stupid.
Now that I see how this defense was during the trial …. They deserve everything that’s coming to them !
😱 this has been long over due 😱epic statement
What an amazing judge !!! She’s so awesome 😎
This entire process has been 😂😂😂😂
The poor judge, who would want that job. The community should be lucky to have a young highly coherent judge, she's probobly needing a vacation after dealing with this case.

Nicely done judge. 10 🌟
Wow. Way to go.
Throw the book at all of them ..
Lots of support. Here judge.

This judge is kinda being unprofessional and rude she seems to be working with emotions and biases idk the whole story but judges are held to the highest of standards and she is acting very low in standards.
P.S I'm not defending anyone or anything just staying what I'm witnessing

I really like this judge. I'm from Broward, and I take pride of this judge. Great job 👏
Yessssss
TERRIBLE!
damn imagine back when society hung or guillotine the perpetrators those were the more simple days now murder is just like robbing a bank nowadays just a slap in the wrist
Really hope they do t get rid of this 👩⚖️ she done great job..I wasvery surprised also by the them rest there case.....
Plus hope they don't have start this trial all over again...
I would be pissed off to..
Defence had this planned I reckon...
You treat a judge like this where I practice & you'll be sorry. These Public Defenders (like all of them) are nasty, disrespectful dogs.
Looks like the defense is using the "lets fu@#$k with the judge" defense......
Pretty obvious from this clip alone that the entire strategy of the defence was to provoke the judge with outrageous demands and rude behavior in order to incite an emotional response from her on which they could claim a mistrial and get another judge.
I feel like the lawyers acted disrespectfully intentionally. They were defending a very clearly guilty client. In order to make sure the client can appeal, to give their client some pity points for having stupid lawyers, by focusing the judge/jury/court's attention on the lawyers and not on the client, and give themselves as much time as possible by being disruptive, they might be able to lower their clients sentence by distracting from the depth of the atrocities committed by the client. They are playing a long and dirty game here.
"Yeah he shot all those kids, but that judge sure was a meanie" isn't actually anything that would reduce a sentence though. This isn't Disney.
"I've been doing this for 22 years..." Then act like it
A lot of emotions flowing in that courtroom
this Lady is an old-school judge... I love it!
Holy crap don't mess with this judge! I like her 🙂
wait, they don't even get up to speak to the Judge?!?!
Am I’m sorry I thought they put professionals on huge cases?!? What is happening I’m so confused.
i love this judge she should have her own show
since when did lowly attorneys starts giving this much disrespect to a judge?
When the judge stopped acting like a judge and got emotional.
I legit thought that lawyer was Amber Heard’s sister😂
Good for the judge...the defense does appear very arrogant.
Now I remember why I stated I would work behind the scenes when it came to law.
Hopefully all this is somehow teaching Nick how yeah people can suck and not get along and fight and argue but that's no reason to shoot em
Nick didn't care about that- his dream was to be a school shooter.
@Bia Oliveira likely not ... But maybe that can still change
@Bia Oliveira which is why he's prob not gonna get death penalty, esp. Since he has Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, even though he clearly knew what ge was doing- FAD doesn't make you obsessed with shootings.
@Bia, he has no mind.
She’s been practicing for more than 20 years and been incompetent for all those years.
it's the judge who is at fault. she has been bias, prejudice, rude and unfair since the start. All I see is frustration on the defence side because the judge rulings are not fair. She isnt letting the defence lawyers do their job properly. She is constantly rejecting all, even valid objections from defence. while allowing every evidence or motion no matter how absurd it is in law. the defence at this point has simply given up because there is no point to be there when the judge is so openly bias and one sided.
Also this judge doesn't realise that a death sentence is actually a win for Cruz. he never wanted to live. that's the part of his plan. he is a snowflake who cover ears while listening to 911 calls from his victims. he want this death sentence because its the easy escape for him. his true punishment would be to live in prison. rott in ADX Florence with nothing but his thoughts and himself for rest of his life with no escape from himself.
Yeah I feel like saying “I’ve been practicing law for 20 years” is not a good brag in this case 😂 like how many cases have you won in that time 🤔
