Love objected before Steel finished his question and Whitaker asked her to wait until the question is finished before raising an objection.
Max Schardt is asking Melnick questions now.
Love's objections keep getting overruled by Judge Whitaker.
Chief Deputy DA Adriane Love is now questioning Melnick, who instead of standing next to Love, decides to take the witness stand.
Whitaker is allowing lawyers to talk about these emails for a while.
Melnick said he has spoken to Copeland multiple times in the past year.Melnick said he won't tell Love about any communication he had with Copeland.
Schardt is the one that called Melnick to tell him Copeland was going to testify.
Love seems to be under the impression that Melnick never indicated that he was representing Copeland as a witness in the
#YSL Trial.Melnick said he told them he represented Copeland as a witness.
Whitaker just told attorneys that they've been going for more than an hour on this topic and told them to wrap it up because it's not relevant.
Love just read this email in court, asking Melnick if he thinks Copeland is in danger from anyone in the state.
Melnick is done.
We are going on a 12 minute break and will be back 10:30 a.m.
We are going to deal with "omitted parts of the transcript.”
Attorney Doug Weinstein is asking Judge Whitaker to be able to play a TikTok video.
Weinstein is arguing the transcript is complete, only for when Glanville was in the room.He argues there was a portion of the meeting that was not in the transcript because it didn't involve Glanville.The video is of Copeland and Kayla Bumpus discussing the June 10 meeting.
Weinstein said he got his information from Ms. Bumpus about them all being in the same room without Glanville discussing things about themselves. Argues that's when Copeland talked about the Donovan Thomas murder.
Love asked for a bench conference but attorneys are trying to figure out how the listening devices work so the court reporter can hear and transcribe.
We are taking a break to allow Weinstein to be able to listen to the video again and then to be able to write what was said so he can provide his proffer.
We are back.
Weinstein is describing the video, in which Kayla Bumpus asks Copeland if the transcript is complete and Copeland shakes his head to indicate no.
