Literal Ace Attorney, Public Defender, evidence nerd, and mock trial coach/shill, not your lawyer unless I am your lawyer which is statistically unlikely

@GsuGrinding I previously had some respect for Blanche as well, but I think a willingness to engage in this bullshit is a requirement for his current position and he's a smart enough man to have known that when he took the job
English
I understand many of you will think me pollyannish but I thought more of Todd Blanche than this bullshit.

Spoiler alert: It’s an unbelievably frivolous indictment and will almost certainly be tossed out
English
@ASFleischman Ah yes, the classic example of unethical lawyering........ Trying to figure out if something is permitted by the rules of evidence?
English
There are many lawyers who try cases without making all that much effort to win. If you are troubled by my efforts, I urge you to hire one of them.
Andrew Fleischman@ASFleischman
The one thing movies never get right about trials is the rules of evidence. And I don't just mean whether the objections are accurate or the evidence is admissible. Planning how you are going to get your evidence in, and keep their evidence out, is a big part of trial prep.

If I have to talk to 14 people in a day 12 of them better be jurors lol.
A. Mando@AMandoSch
Feeling like I didn't do anything today and look at my call log and I took 14 calls today.

@DietCoke_Esq Given that this was an extremely awkward situation and the case I'd handled was a bunch of retail thefts I made up an office policy against accepting gifts and politely declined
English
@DietCoke_Esq A client came to me after their case was resolved and asked "What do you smell like?" Which is a question I didn't know how to answer so when I just looked confused they repeated "What do you smell like, I wanna give you something" then pulled out 7 different bottles of cologne.

@GsuGrinding Wire fraud is outside my area of expertise (Most of my clients are usually accused of stealing in a much more....... direct way) so I'll defer on that, but intuitively it just doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me
English
@AroAceAtty From the indictment alone I’d feel ok prosecuting or defending it (which is usually not a good sign for an indictment) but I do think it’s a plausible argument especially in a world where courts have traditionally treated wire fraud as whatever the government says it is.
English
Oh fuck off. You cannot possibly know that from the indictment alone 🙄
Joyce Alene@JoyceWhiteVance
The Justice Dept’s theory of the case— that the group that single-handedly disassembled the Ku Klux Klan defrauded its donors by concealing that it was using paid informant to do that work and more— have about as much merit as the now-dismissed charges against Jim Comey, the charges against the members of Congress who never got indicted for telling service members they shouldn’t follow illegal orders, & the sandwich thrower a DC grand jury declined to indict.
English
@ASFleischman Unfortunately not unique, here in PA we don't even get this sort of vague paragraph and extensive rebuttal the prosecutor did here. Defense goes first for closing and prosecution goes second and I hate it every time
English
One fun issue today at SCOG. In Georgia (maybe uniquely) the prosecutor can just give his entire closing after the defense does, and say a bunch of new stuff the defense can't respond to. The federal rule (with identical language) does not allow this.
SCOG says it's fine.

@lawyerschiff I stand by my belief that the alleged crime being funny should be an affirmative defense

Police say a 28-year-old California man allegedly bought expensive LEGO sets, kept the pieces and returned the boxes filled with dry pasta. Authorities say the scheme was repeated about 70 times nationwide before he was caught.

@LeahAsimov He looks like he said yippee immediately after this picture

The first night in japan i begged him to win me this bucket covered in lesbians, he doesnt look like it from the photo but he was so proud and excited he yelled when he won 🫡
English
@DuBoseDefense Reminds me of when a judge dismissed everything except a single paraphernalia charge on a MJOA in a case of mine and the prosecutor said "Well I still haven't lost with the jury."
He then lost with the jury.
English
This prosecutor is 0-2 for his career. Both trials have been against us. This morning he told someone that “third time’s a charm.”

Set on another DWI trial next week with a prosecutor who is “just looking for trial experience.” My brother,

@LeahAsimov Not using a diaper gives you extra motivation to go faster so no

@thatlawyerLisa Red paint splashed all over apartment building, client answers door with red paint on hands clothes and open red paint cans in the doorway. Client wants to go to trial.........
To their credit we did at least hang the jury the first time around
English
Defendant confesses to having meth. Meth is found on him. He wants to go to trial……..
There must be something I can do.
Marc Watkins ⚖️@MarcWatkinsEsq
It's always interesting to me the self-delusion some criminal defendants have. Despite whatever evidence points to guilt, they have an excuse, regardless of how legally insufficient it seems to be.

men should bring up astrology on a first date
not because it's an accurate measure of compatibility, but because it self-identifies woman who are defensive about holding silly beliefs

@ASFleischman @Marc_Fagel @benelli14597445 This is the big thing that I feel like all these complaining prosecutors are missing out on. My argument is never "This isn't on video" full stop. My argument is always "If this were true it could've been on video/someone else should've seen it/there would've been more evidence."
English
@Marc_Fagel @benelli14597445 I do think that jurors are suspicious when something could be readily recorded, but isn't.
If a cop turns off his body cam that is very often going to be a defense win.
English
Jurors do not have cartoonishly high expectations of evidence.
In fact, studies show that many common jury instructions undermine the presumption of innocence, with jurors convicting at 51% certainty.
Arjun Panickssery@panickssery
> Jury trials aren't only failing because of ethnic tribalism > They're failing in large part because a jury's expectation of evidence is cartoonishly high, completely divorced from reality. They expect *everything* to be on video nowadays does ai video worsen or reverse this

@GsuGrinding @ASFleischman Look you don't understand, this prosecutor is the best "And what happened next?" asker this side of the Mississippi
English
@ASFleischman I also love the “I’m THE drug prosecutor” flex. Oh you mean you have to put up a cop who found drugs a GBI person that tested it, and then watch us fight over who it belonged to? Tough job bro.
English
Lol…Oh you motherfucker, you have no idea how interesting I’m about to make this DUI 😂
Andrew Fleischman@ASFleischman
A prosecutor today said he'd have no trouble trying a DUI against me, but it's "boring" for him because he usually handles rapes and murders. And then he said "of course I don't mean to denigrate YOUR experience."
