If there was something nefarious about the video being inverted then I would have more of a problem with it.
I'm not sure who is guilty or for what. JMO.
Here is just a small part of nefarious, IMO. I also call it suspicious as heck. When Lally first had Bukhenik up on the stand under direct, and introduced the video, YB was agreeable and pleasant with an excellent memory mind you, and willingly took the laser pointer to SHOW just where he was. And, just where Proctor was. 'Yeppers...that was me! '
And, " There's my good friend Proctor...on the back left side of the vehicle.".....(Except it really wasn't on the left side).
When confronted the next day by Jackson, after realizing it was a fraudulent mirrored video displayed, suddenly YB doesn't recognize himself nor Proctor in the video. They were caught ! On the back passenger taillight area! Doh !!!
Bukhenic had a sudden change of mental status and acuity, and couldn't quite do the recognizing anymore. He was unsure of everything. ( He was caught ).
Somebunny in the DA's office, CPD, MSP or all of the above came up with this brilliant idea of inverting the video to prove that Proctor and Co were nowhere near the back passenger side broken taillight area. They didn't submit the evidence in until the trial was underway, because they were looking bad, and Proctor was going to sink them further.
It was an epic fail on all accounts. Manipulation gone wrong.
Tampering with evidence, and committing fraud on a jury.
IMO
