Doing the same fish lips thing as in his IG videos, guess he must have been able to see himself on the video feed
One, I'm REALLY tired of men appearing topless in court. Put a shirt and shackles on him if you're so worried he's a risk to himself.Doing the same fish lips thing as in his IG videos, guess he must have been able to see himself on the video feed
What was in the bag he was holding? Court snacks?
I like the reporters ending comment - "our legal experts say, because this is such a high profile case - the defendant's Father is a well known Hollywood producer. It is unlikely to go to trial anytime soon".
Only in California folks!!
I agree with the shirt thing. I find it really distasteful not only to the person but to the court. I'm assuming this doesn't happen to at-risk women.One, I'm REALLY tired of men appearing topless in court. Put a shirt and shackles on him if you're so worried he's a risk to himself.
Two, if I were the wealthy dad, my son would have the most mediocre public defender his long history of accomplishing nothing could afford. I cannot fathom paying for his defense after these heinous crimes.
Actually, it's probably because there were multiple victims, possibly multiple crime scenes, the missing automobiles, multiple timelines, cell phones, GPS, etc. When that happens, there's a lot more evidence to process. After that, it all has to be catalogued and sorted for each victim, each murder, each location and given to defense attorneys in discovery.Doing the same fish lips thing as in his IG videos, guess he must have been able to see himself on the video feed

snippedIt remains unclear why he made the change.
I know all too well what you mean by that.snipped
I'm cynical enough to think the last-minute change in lawyers was a delay tactic. I've been watching too many of the other trials (you know the ones I mean) and my mind is now jaded!

I think we have a pretty good idea who's footing this bill.
