https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7vub41 29:15 the drone footage in high res has been out forever. It appearing that late in the trial is because the prosecutor was trying to change tactics.
The defense mentioned earlier during the argument that they tried to get the drone footage, but either were not able to get it or got something different.  Then the one defense lady said the file name they were initially given was different from the high resolution version they got later plus the file creation times were different.  IMO, either the prosecution was very sloppy in handling evidence copies or deliberately turned over an adjusted copy.  Could they have messed up and turned over the wrong file?  Maybe.

Judge threatened to put the prosecutor under oath to answer questions.

Video stills shows the prosecutor has a copy of handbrake (video editor) on his computer. Prosecutor claims he couldn't have edited anything and doesn't understand anything.

I had been of the opinion that ADA Binger should be disbarred. I have retracted that opinion. I now think he should be publicly drawn and quartered. The man is a disgrace to the legal profession. In fact, he's a disgrace to the human race.

Some minor violence outside the courthouse. Some arrests of BLM people.

He's probably at this very moment negotiating a multi million $ book deal and getting his run for congress ready where he'll fit right in. Netflix already has in the works a movie of his life story.

Just how many protesters have been outside that facility?
 
Because I saw one video that looked to _maybe_ have a couple of dozen at the most.

If the defense lawyers weren’t the next closest thing to useless they’d have someone monitoring the Rekieta law stream. No fewer that five attorneys at any time talking about strategies and motions and objections that should be made. Between withholding evidence, commenting on Kyle’s exercising his fifth amendment right, mentioning other evidence that the judge excluded this should be a mistrial and the prosecutors should be up for review. Defense motioned for a mistrial with prejudice last night, then asked for one without today. They’re just floundering around in a case that should be a slam dunk. It’s arguably the most videoed self defense in history.

That would make trials a lot more interesting if juries could pull a Uno reversal card and convict an idiot prosecutor of the crime they accuse the defendant of

No, not the same crime but the "crime" of incompetence, malfeasance, and/or fraud.  >:D

I assume you mean pointing the "murder" weapon at people. Not only is it one of the things they accuse Kyle of, it's also much worse than anything he actually did.

So a lot of us think that the reaction will be muted. What if it isn't? The media has a lot of sunk costs to protect. Besides, if we forget this we then look at the mistrial that is their five years of Russiahoax. Or Ghislaine Maxwell. Or how awesome DC is doing. So there is the usual peaceful arson. Someone responds. The response and the trial is the pretext for a massive fed push on militias as well as a power grab at the courts since they decide wrong. This mess has a really really low chance of sparking a civil war. But it's not zero.

I'm so contrarian that I didn't respond to the thread.

The Rekieta law guys commented on the fillibustering that it seemed the longer he talked the more the judge softened about mistrial stuff.  The defense didn't seem to press for mistrial or even act all that upset about the issues.

The Rittenhouse trial is no longer the lead story on the Fox News website.  Hasn't been for two days now.
Their coverage had been non-stop breathless for several days with multiple leads and rolling updates.

With regard to the defense team seemingly dropping the ball, I wonder if they aren't getting a little tired of the whole thing.  Are they working pro bono like Lin Wood was before he dropped out?
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Hard to be breathless when covering deliberation.  When the verdict is announced they, and everybody else, will rush to tell you and claim they were the first to do so.

I noticed that this morning as well. It's almost like a faucet being turned off. I held my nose and went to CNN and a few other MSM sites as well, and the same thing. Curious.

Probably would be best for all involved if every media outlet took it off their front page but I'm not holding my breath on that happening at CNN, MSNBC etc....

Not curious at all.

Except while the jury has been sitting in the room, the MSM has been focusing on protestors congregating and almost gleefully talking about the potential for violence. AFAIK, the protestors are still there and crowds are growing, but suddenly it's off the "leads and bleeds" sections of the MSM websites.

If they are dropping coverage to reduce giving publicity and not egging on the potential violence, good on them, but they have in the past not shown such restraint.
