This is how I feel. Everytime DK comes up, the State objects, which by law, it might the right call, etc. BUT if they are that confident about their verification of his trip to Hawaii, IMO they need to get it out there so it's in the juror's minds every time the Defense mentions his name so they can disregard what is being asked or said.

This underhanded purposefully done tactics done by defense attorneys like these two in this case makes my blood boil!
ALL of it is an orchestrated plan to deceive and pull the wool over the eyes of the jury.
They did every objectionable question asked to set the trap for the state by confusing the jury into thinking the state had something to hide when it was not the case and they knew it.
The defense knew beforehand the improper questions were asked would receive objections and would be sustained every single time by the judge, rightfully so.
The state had no choice but to object to questions that were totally improper to ask. The defense already knew too the state had no choice but to do so.
In every murder trial it is imperative the state gets every objection into the trial record along with each ruling made by the judge in case there is a conviction which later will be automatically up for appeal. It is vitally important.
The once prosecutor now turned defense attorney in this case knows all too well what the state must get on the trial record and now he uses that prior knowledge to his advantage. He now uses it against the state he once worked for and he knows he would have done the very same thing.
DK and what he did or may have not done in the past has no relevancy in this case.
He is not the one accused and he isn't the one on trial and the judge is always very mindful of that fact.
Assumptions, bsseless accusations or out of context statements made by the defense aren't evidence of DKs involvement.
If the defense team actually had evidence proving it was DK and not their accused client, they would have produced that evidence to the governor of CA demanding CM be released.
They would have made it known to the press and anyone who would listen and do it way before trial time.
Yet they didn't because they know they dont have any evidence of DK being involved in any manner.
Its just like with Daron Wint's attorney who wound up having absolutely no evidence to back up their baseless claims it wasnt DW but his two brothers instead, but that didnt stop them from making unsupported claims hoping they could hoodwink the jury into believing it anyway which was an epic fail for them, and their guilty client. The jury refused to drink the koolaid.
I have seen many ethical respectable excellent defense attorneys but IMOO, these aren't two of them. In fact some of the best trial lawyers I've seen have been defense attorneys.
The Meritt attorneys are the kind of attorneys who will do every underhanded trick in their unethical handbook trying to get a quadruple murderer walking free on the streets again.
It's not about making sure CM gets a fair trial. To get a fair trial both sides must be treated fairly.
Imo its far more about their own notoriety and trying to put another notch of wins in their column.
They are hoping one juror will fall for their devious practices meant only to deceive.
It's far better spending more time in jail as CM has been willing to do for years now... than being shipped out to a maximum security prison and a possibility of being on death row if convicted.
So the defense would like nothing better than a hung jury.
So they will continue their orchestrated smoke and mirrors game of deception.
