Wow. What's the point of legal representation if the judge is going to simply ignore it?
I can understand why the defense appears confused. I don't think I've ever seen anything like that before.

I don't think the defense wants a mistrial. The prosecution might. I think this trial was over after the first few prosecution witnesses.
^^^ +1. Totally agree; the defense wants acquittal of all charges and not a mistrial. I heard earlier on Hannity that the Judge is considering allowing the prosecution to reduce the charge from Murder 2 to manslaughter. I understand that is judicial discretion, but not often allowed.
Have the riots started yet? I am just hoping to see some real death and dismemberment type shit going on! You know stupid people getting stupid and other people shutting them down type shit.
Manslauter has been on the table along with murder 2 from the start..
There will be riots no matter what
However, based on the facts. of the case, if he is not found guilty on murder 2, meaning Z acted in self defense.. based on what I understand he can not be guilty of the other 3.. There is 4 possible now, just can't remember the last one..
Will this thing theoretically go to the jury before the weekend?
Would, should go to the jury by Friday... should, probably work through weekend.
