OH, NO: DEFENSE ASKS FOR A MISTRIAL -- WITHOUT PREJUDICE

"Without prejudice" means a new trial. They base this on not having the best quality video. They say they would have prepared their defense differently.

This could just be setting up an "in case" situation if Rittenhouse is found guilty.

But this also means the defense thinks that Rittenhouse will be convicted.

If the prosecution agrees to this, then the judge is likely to grant a new trial. I suppose the judge COULD, MAYBE deny the motion, but it's hard if both defense and prosecution agree.

Prosecution opposes -- because they think that the jury, by asking to see the "raises gun" video, is thinking about convicting.

I disagree with that, actually. When a jury wants to see something, sometimes it's just to clear their last doubts. The OJ jury wanted to review the testimony of the chauffeur who said that he kept ringing OJ's doorbell and OJ didn't answer for a half hour (because he was showering after killing his wife), IIRC. People took that to mean they were going to convict. I, smartly, thought it meant they were reviewing it in order to dismiss it.

But this does not look good, my friends.

Re: Flufferboy2004

Rekieta said that someone did a social media search on T. Clair Binger (Littlefinger's full name) and it came up with a previous email of "Flufferboy2004" at some email host. This has not been confirmed fully, but he says it pops up on a search. For what it's worth.

See last night's Midnight Post for more about T. Clair Binger.

***


Not sure what he'll do about the latest bad-faith action.

Screenshot (812).png

The prosecution provided a much, much lower quality video to the defense. The defense did not even know about this until the end of the trial.

The judge, I'm told, is not buying the prosecution's excuses about why they gave the defense a shitty version of the evidence.


Update: the judge seems to be taking it, as usual, by just biting the pillow for Littlefinger. I thought he was angry, but he just seems to be treating this as another "Oooopsie!" by Flufferboy2004.

I think Fatlock is making the argument of innocence because maybe Flufferboy2004's credibility is still in question.

Fatlock's series of excuses for his and binger's treachery:

1. Video is not different quality.
2. Okay, the video is different quality but you knew it and had the higher quality video all along.
3. Fox News!
4. I resent being called a liar!
5. Maybe the Defense screwed up the computer file when we sent it to them.

Re: the judge declaring a mistrial or judgement notwithstanding the verdict (JNOV):

142 This judge is not going to mistrial anything or JNOV the case. He's a weakling. He whines about media coverage. He FEELS the sting of Joe Scarborough's scorn.

163 The prosecution applied the wrong snapchat filter. They apologize.

15 These arguments at the trial about the video and video quality make me want to scream. There needs to be a technical director available. The video was sent to the state via a phone-to-phone Apple technology that only works between iPhones. They sent it to the defense via E-Mail per defense request. They are asserting that the receiving device compressed the file and that the difference is the defense's fault.

I am not 100% certain, but I seriously doubt this. The sender likely compressed the file to cram it into an E-Mail or to save bandwidth. This might have happened transparently, but am not sure. The typical flow of this kind of operation would be "compress-then-send" not "receive-then-compress" because the receiver wouldn't need to do so.

This is maddening. These people use high-tech evidence all the time, have no knowledge or mastery of it, and let people's lives hang in the fucking balance while they engage in cargo-cult button mashing in what is essentially deference to magic.

28 If there is a full-resolution video file added as an E-Mail attachment, it might well get compressed prior to transmission. There a bunch of possible reasons for this - attachment size limits on the sending E-Mail service, bandwidth management settings on the phone, etc. Lots of possibilities for the phone to very helpfully recompress the file to get it out the door.

And this is why you shouldn't be throwing digital evidence around willy-nilly without a forensic record or chain of custody that guarantees that you didn't degrade or otherwise fuck up the evidence.

This is totally astounding. At every level. It's unreal that they treat digital evidence this way.

Uh, when I send full-res video cuts to someone's email, I use a fuckin' share link like a professional. There are even free services up to 2GB for it. But you can be damned sure the DA's office has some other means of filesharing. Something secure, with at least a couple terabytes of storage.

74 Here's where the "I texted the video" argument falls apart. Yes it is true that you can get extreme degradation in a video when you send it via MMS (who TF that uses a smartphone doesn't know this?). However, shouldn't the prosecutors immediately have seen that the video played in court was massively downscaled and alerted the judge to the problem?

Of course it was a ploy, because they noy only did not do that, but they were trying to argue about "logarithms" and other shit, defending the potato nature of the video they submitted. Massive bullshit op.

They might be lying or they could be wildly incompetent. You do those things, YD, like I do, because you're competent and have a passing familiarity or better with this shit. But these guys didn't get their crappy IT support involved. They send "dur dur dur, I'll E-Mail it, dur, dur, dur, attach, dur, send, dur, dur, dur."

So far all is going according to keikaku. But maybe I'm too cynical. We'll know shortly.

This is different. This is what appears to be a normal, baseline, typical SOP for how they do this shit in normal circumstances.

172 OK, how does the Jury know about the Drone footage, if it was not introduced during the trial.

Either someone told them, and it becomes Jury Tampering, or a Juror has been watching coverage of the case on TV, and that Juror not only needs to be thrown off the case, but charged with Jury tampering as well.

I would think a law firm would be operating their own servers. In my case, I've been transferring video/photo files for decades. I can receive literally any file via email, I have no realistic limits unless you're sending a fucking IMAX motion picture. When a client needs a humongous file, I make that link available on my server which they can access. Again, a shitload more secure than using something like dropbox.

Now, if a friggin' trade show demonstration or TV animation or real estate virtual tour or whatever is that secure, shouldn't a trial where somebody's life is literally on the line be at least as secure? The stench from the bench...

The sizes of things have been abbreviated for so long ("megs" and "gigs"), and the introduction of bandwidth as a common measure (megabits, etc.) makes things even muddier. There is *less* precision now than there used to be. She should have just said "megs" or "MB" instead of trying to remember the actual word that she doesn't use.

Whatever. Her point was clear, it's just more absurdity. And I have to try to keep perspective because part of my everyday life is figuring out whether someone means "MB" or "MiB" because that shit matters rather a lot at scale and everyone uses them interchangeably.

Mackay wrote up a great explanation of the practice in "Extraordinary Popular Delusions" . He pointed out that if you were a medieval noble who ran afoul of the King, you sure didn't want to submit yourself to the King's court. The local Lord would probably want to curry favor, so his courts would be just as bad. And the Church Courts, which were a big thing then - well, suppose the Church had reason to hate you more than anyone. Nope, don't go there.

Having an option to decide things by your own skill and strength was MUCH better than any of your other options.

But I understand what is at stake here. If KR is convicted it will have a chilling effect on the entire right of self defense as a practical matter in the United States and by extension the entire West.

I doubt Average Joe Juror understands that. And as such, he would not be as motivated to make such a sacrifice, even if he otherwise would have believed in it

The only possible thing that could happen is a change of compression by changing file types - say you send an Android MP4 to an Apple, which changes it to a Quicktime format.

What we're talking here is a change of resolution/screen size. You absolutely cannot change a 1920x1080 file by handing off the file. Even if it changes the file type - the resolution remains the same. Somebody had to actually tell it to save off at a lower format. Now, accidentally? Yeah, if somebody didn't know WTF they were doing, they could save an AVCHD archive file to a QT or MP4, and let the software default settings change it. But this is NOT even close to just handing off the file. Again, incompetence and most likely malicious.

____________

I think that's exactly what he's doing. The prosecution has been so shady in this case that they've created a situation where it's impossible to say Rittenhouse had a fair trial, and the judge is concerned about a conviction getting reversed on appeal. He's hoping the jury acquits, so he doesn't have to rule on the defense motion, because their arguments are valid, but he doesn't want to throw out the case because he knows there will be outrage from the left and the media (BIRM) if he does that.

320 Broken windows theorem by James Q Wilson and his partner, applies to cases as well.

The judge lost control of the trial and enabled this shit show by failing to punish the prosecutors for misconduct early on. He did not sequester the jury, did not issue gag orders, and allowed repeated misconduct from the prosecutors. No wonder that at the end of the trial, the prosecutors felt they could shove this through. The judge did not force the issue early on which only encouraged repeated misconduct by the prosecutors. Now, the jury is cowed by threats, the judge is still trying to split the difference apparently.

As a very minimum, the judge should disallow the video evidence and throw out the provocation instruction from jury consideration. If the jury still votes to convict, the verdict should be thrown out as contrary to justice by the judge due to prosecutorial misconduct prejudicing the jury.

Posted by: whig at November 17, 2021 02:48 PM (9hXN1)

321 I was just wondering this myself. In order to enter video, photos, documents etc. into evidence you have to authenticate them first. This usually involves testimony from the person who generated the piece of evidence about when, where, how, all that.

Yup. The 3 who testified for the defense for their video evidence were brought into court. The ADA's video evidence has no ownership. Weird that.

It's not raw and likely never was. This is drone footage. It was probably acquired in a compressed format (likely a common MPEG variant) and stored on an SD card in the drone itself. It was probably only raw at the censor.

359 Served on two juries, one as foreman. First vote on one was 6/6. On the other it was 4/4/4 (undecided). IOW, both split right down the middle (or in thirds). So we wrangled into the night. Took 8 hours in a HOT ROOM to get one verdict, another 9 in the other. The jury room was intense, people went after each other, it was real. But we all wanted a verdict, not a hung jury and eventually, we got there.

I think this jury will do the same.

391 335 m,
No, it worked empirically everywhere that it has been tried. Tom Bratton and Rudy G. instituted it in NYC and guess what--a supposedly ungovernable city became governable. The same people jumping turnstiles are the same ones committing robbery and other crimes. Put them up in jail repeatedly, they are unable to recommit other offenses and often will soon leave for greener pastures. Don't punish for small offenses, they become emboldened to commit other and more serious crimes.

Libertarians hated it as did leftists because of different reasons. Most of the people living there actually liked it or Rudy would not have won reelection and Bloomberg would not have served three terms for continuing it.

In Chiraq, it has never been tried and as a result, the city suffers rampant crime.

Why I'm saying it was saved off as a different lower resolution "internet quality" video. It went from a 16:9 screen ratio to probably 4:3. Whoever did it knew full well what they were doing.

I'm guessing that the original (somewhere) is 4k 60fps. That's what a typical DJI Mavic 2 Pro records at.

Project Exile was another such broken window's theorem example used in Richmond Virginia. They went after every felon with a gun vigorous--eventually felons quit carrying weapons around or left the jurisdiction.

Nashville, TN courts instituted a domestic violence court--zero tolerance for domestic abusers. This forced the domestic abusers to go to prison or to leave the jurisdiction.

Certainly travel costs go into that cost benefit analysis, as well as likelihood of being caught (a black guy with Illinois plates might stand out if he's cruising neighborhoods in white Iowa), so a lot of crime is "local," but a criminal won't last long stealing small amounts close to home.

I was originally under the impression that this was an FBI drone, and the footage submitted by them. Now it seems to be a big mystery. As far as I'm concerned that's at least 2 pieces the judge shouldn't have allowed - despite the fact the high res footage looks good for Kyle.

If it was the FBI, then am I supposed to believe they only had one quad copter airborne? These things are autonomous, I'm guessing there's lots more.

Posted by: Marcus T at November 17, 2021 03:04 PM (wtmsr)

except that the video shows Kyle never even pointing his gun at anyone before his life was immediately threatened. Contrary to what the Prosecution claimed, and which negates their claim that "provocation" should negate his self defense claims.

572 In every single one of these well publicized trials the prosecution always plays these same tricks. There is always evidence which is not turned over, or hidden, or manufactured.

That part is not so unusual. What is unusual is how bad Binger and Fatticus Stinch are at making up excuses for it.

"Without prejudice" means a new trial. They base this on not having the best quality video. They say they would have prepared their defense differently.

This could just be setting up an "in case" situation if Rittenhouse is found guilty.

But this also means the defense thinks that Rittenhouse will be convicted.

Prosecution opposes -- because they think that the jury, by asking to see the "raises gun" video, is thinking about convicting.

I disagree with that, actually. When a jury wants to see something, sometimes it's just to clear their last doubts. The OJ jury wanted to review the testimony of the chauffeur who said that he kept ringing OJ's doorbell and OJ didn't answer for a half hour (because he was showering after killing his wife), IIRC. People took that to mean they were going to convict. I, smartly, thought it meant they were reviewing it in order to dismiss it.

But this does not look good, my friends.

Posted by: ace at November 17, 2021 03:26 PM (0G13K)

662 Other than the judge being a quivering schoolgirl when it comes to making tough decisions, the principle problem I'm seeing with all of this bullshit is everyone's reliance on memory.

The lawyers are able to testify about what someone said without actually bringing up a transcript. The lawyers are talking about multiple past events quickly and the judge is relying on their description of events to remember what they're talking about. Lunchbox is making good use of this confusing technique to quickly switch his argument and claim that other people are misunderstanding him and changing his references according to counterarguments.

No no, judge, they're talking about this version of the video, I was talking about a totally different version.

No sir, I was talking about the same version.

Oh, then you misunderstood me, .

With the jury trying to play CSI the best outcome is probably a hung jury. So no different to mistrial. Worst case some juror convinces the others to convict because he thinks he found the smoking gun.

The free 'snooper sites' that gather much information about individuals - like Facebook names and email addresses - can be very accurate, or inaccurate.

My experience is they are very accurate about Facebook names and email addresses. Especially ones that date back a decade or so. The Facebook accounts may be closed, the email addresses no longer used, but the history of them existing at one time is accurate.

689 In my experience as a prosecutor, mistrials will often lead to a plea offer on a lesser offense - maybe even for time served. The thinking being that you failed to convince a jury beyond a reasonable doubt at the first trial. The defense is thinking along the lines that we barely dodged a big time conviction, so maybe not risk it twice.

This doesn't apply of course when the prosecution is acting in obvious bad faith. That seems obvious in this case. I'm shocked at the way Binger tried this case. It would get me fired here in Texas.

728 It seems that such an issue would never call for "prejudice".

To reach that bar, the prosecution has to be proven to be corrupt or criminal. That is a high bar.

Or the state has to be clearly incapable of providing a fair trial (due to lack of law and order, bias in community, etc.)

But dismissing charges without another trial goes against every fiber of our criminal justice industry. It means there will never be "justice", and that the industry loses revenue stream.

735 Hasn't the defense already made a motion for a mistrial with prejudice that hasn't been ruled on? Maybe they could have added this to the pending motion, but I'm speculating that the motion might have been filed this way to create another basis for reversal in the appellate court (I'm neither a criminal lawyer nor a WI lawyer, so apply salt to this speculation as needed.)

736 I'm sorry, but the defense are fucking idiots. The perfect representation of the GOP

737 The country is coming unglued.

Moderation is masturbation
What is what and what makes you feel good
All these things I think about, I think about
Always come unglued

738 The Posobiec comparison of the low resolution versus the high resolution videos clearly shows the image has been cropped. The original his-res has a vehicle's headlights to the left that is not in the frame of the low-res image.

739 I'm an actual lawyer. Here's what I think the judge is doing:

I think he thinks the jury will come to the right decision. I think he thinks its better if they jury does come to the right decision.

Judges are not natural risk takers. They basically avoid any kind of controversy for at least 10 years as a lawyer to then start applying to be an actual judge. Its not the kind of thing a loudmouth like me can easily do. So, not naturally risk takers.

So, when they feel the weight of a decision, if there's any way to punt, they'll likely take it.
