@jessimicke @AhimsaAddiction A great song, but I prefer the good vibes, the symbolism of Carefree Highway. But I understand why you prefer Superior singing in the rooms of her ice water mansion!

This is not the Onion apparently. But this cannot be real. Proctor hasn’t been “vetted,” the deep dive into him was solely the result of a disciplinary investigation destined to end in the termination of his employment. Aside from being crude and a misogynist, if not corrupt, Proctor, among other things, didn’t take basic photographs of key evidence, properly log times of key investigative events, voucher evidence properly, failed to properly document interviews (according to at least one key prosecution witness), had no problem with family members receiving gifts for his investigative work that favored the donor, and gave misleading sworn testimony to a federal grand jury such that he had to be called back to “amend” it. Proctor couldn’t and wouldn’t be hired to be the town dog catcher in a town of 3 people.

@DonutsBaga @Heather_Nos I was in that cluster that lived on the north side but went to South High School (RIP).

@RoastBeefJuice Not yesterday. Fortunately, I was busy thinking of new ways to grift. All kidding aside, been there so many times, including about a week ago, just glad it wasnt yesterday!

This particular courtroom (Pt 93) gets most of the violet gang cases in Manhattan (what’s left of them anyway). I’d expect this courtroom will now have its own secondary security set up. What a time to be alive! Go to a public courthouse in lower Manhattan (as safe as it can get anywhere in NYC) and call it a successful day if you don’t get shanked in the hallway!

@wicked_funny2 Homemade fiberglass scalpel and another unknown instrument. Lovely.

@TGlarer This is absolute madness. This is a courthouse that we appear in all the time and occurred directly outside a courtroom we appear in frequently. On the 13th floor. Long past the security line!

@gardenertrish You are entitled to think what you want; nobody suggested you be a puppet. Have a good evening.

@gardenertrish I've seen you previously-and publicly- attack my integrity, prior to that post, as you are now. However, I'm sorry if you are being attacked for your opinions.

The Green affidavit is...something else. The implied misconduct by the prosecution team assuredly will be a part of their upcoming motion to dismiss for prosecutorial misconduct alongside the sallyport video fiasco. We'll discuss at 7.

@Azoicia @RielIrishboys2 @Lamplighter1630 @suspiciousauce @Norsk2u I have never heard of a prosecution expert emailing a defense expert, let alone in the middle of trial. 27 years and that's a new one!

@Fitlovergr32475 @DoctorTurtleboy Absolutely, during cross of Hyde, if defense so chooses. It is certainly relevant to her explanation of her current opinion. Perhaps she has an easy explanation but the defense is certainly entitled to probe on this

1. this an AI overview. Not a real source. 2. even by "AI" standards, they (correctly) recognize that prosecutors represent "the people of the community," as in COLLECTIVELY: they do not represent any unique individual's interests; they represent "the people's" collective interest in justice which may or may not align with the individual interest of an alleged victim.

@NewsUMissed2022 @dannilynn1011 That is your opinion and you are entitled to it. I don't think it is that simple and thats fine. My point was a more macro one about how the criminal justice system functions: prosecutors don't "represent (alleged) victims" of crime.

A prosecutor's role is to seek justice, wherever that leads. Sometimes that includes not prosecuting alleged crimes. Of course, that responsibility often leads them to prosecute cases to secure justice on behalf of an alleged victim. You stated that their role is to "represent victims." That is very different and simply incorrect.

A prosecutor's job is to represent the "people" (or "commonwealth, as it were in Massachusetts). It is to seek justice. Full stop. An ADA does NOT represent victims (as JO clearly is) or alleged victims. Justice may very well require prosecuting people who allegedly injured a victim; but it also may not require convicting someone who is not guilty. But we should all be clear that in no circumstances is a prosecutor representing an alleged victim of a crime.

@JohnLorenz87787 @ourx_vault @parkerpp617 this is the guy who gave a "summation" from the attic before the defense had the opportunity to present any evidence, yes? I suspect any 10 drunks in a bar would tell you that's not how it works in America...
