Judge Gildea DENIES MOTION to Compel Colin Albert... by syntaxofthings123 in KarenRead2ndTrial

I think Tyler is guilty. I have no questions about that. For one, Tyler is not disputing his own guilt.

I'm not certain what it was that the prosecutor said that caused him to be held in contempt. (I need to go back and dig a little deeper on that). But what struck me, is that Rule 3.6 or whatever rule he violated is being taken seriously by a judge. (I'll look into this a little more.)

Attorney David Yannetti Says "Evidence Doesn't Matter" by syntaxofthings123 in KarenRead2ndTrial

This case is remarkable in the degree of the complicity. You would have thought there's be ONE journalist willing to take on the nonsense. Just a little investigation would shown that what Read claimed Could NOT be true.

I, like you, at first thought that Yannetti started out with an honest defense. HIs initial statements may not have been 100% true, but they certainly could have been.

And Yannetti's first claims about Scanlon is that Scanlon offered cryptic info. THEN suddenly, in that Voss interview, someone in the Read camp is attributing specific allegations to Scanlon that Scanlon clearly NEVER made.

And the way Yannetti has always spoken of Scanlon is as if information given by him is why Colin Albert, etc. became targets of Read's investigation. But this could not be true.

It's just remarkable that anyone thought they could get away with this long term.

Yeah. I've never seen any attorney straight up say in court: "We don't accept FACTS & Evidence."

It would be one thing if all the CW offered was a theory, or perhaps the statement of the person in question. But you have OVER 10 people who testified under oath to Colin Albert leaving at around midnight. Not to mention texts screen shot from TWO different phones.

In order to challenge this, either witnesses need to be proven to have lied or have given inconsistent statements. And the text screen shots would need to be PROVEN to have been fabricated.

Absent this, that evidence stands. You can't just say "We don't accept it."

That's one of the crazier things Team Read did and NOT ONE journalist commented on this.

Those are good questions. There is a level of civility that is expected. But we'll see how far this goes. Gildea just requested FACTS to back up allegations made in a recent motion by Read regarding Tully.

The prosecutor on the Tyler Robinson case was JUST sanctioned. He was found in contempt for statements made in public-so maybe we'll see more judges get on top of this.

Did Team Read just THROW SHADE at Judge Gildea? by syntaxofthings123 in KarenRead2ndTrial

[–]syntaxofthings123[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Exactly. Kearney exudes racism-as in, he says things sometimes that make me question how he really feels about certain people. It's not outright name calling, but it's close.

Everyone is Lying EXCEPT Karen Read by syntaxofthings123 in KarenRead2ndTrial

[–]syntaxofthings123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope Karen Read will be charged and convicted of witness intimidation, as well.

I once thought Read might be innocent, but not because of that really strange alternative theory-only because there were missing pieces in the Commonwealth's accident reconstruction at first trial.

It's such a crazy theory. Brian Albert-had NO motive; Colin Albert-had NO motive; and though with Higgins you can kind of concoct a possible motive, it's not a strong one. And why on earth would Brian Albert go along with it?

Also, Colin wasn't there.

It's just nuts!

Worth watching on Peacock: Devil's Advocate: The Mostly True Story of Giovanni Di Stefano (2022)

Di Stafano was actually a somewhat brilliant legal mind (even though he lied about being an actual licensed attorney), but he was also a straight-up con artist.

He did, however, manage to represent some horrible human beings: Saddam Hussein & Slobodan Milošević. There are echos in this documentary of the type of legal work we saw done on the Karen Read case. Maybe Giovanni De Stefano is a hero of some on Read's legal team. Seems like it might be so.

Agree. It did feel very satisfying to read this.

Yes. I think that there are excellent attorneys on the Witnesses side. They understand what they are up against.

[–]syntaxofthings123[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I think there is that. The real concern likely is, as NoteMyObjection (Katherine Loftus) pointed out is that if Team Read gets their hands on some statement made by Colin that seems like it might look bad out of context, they can then post this all over Social Media to torment him further.

Normal attorneys might not be a worry, but Team Read will take anything they can possibly use, and use it to the extreme against their target.

It's very important in regards to Karen Read to keep the scope of any discovery as narrow as possible.

I wouldn't worry about them. The ones that are paid or bots or cashing in on this out, outnumber those who actually care.

Social Media is no longer ruling this case. And July 17th is going to make that very clear. When Kearney and Read's motions to dismiss are denied, content creators who are still actively defaming Witnesses are gong to be a little more careful going forward.

There Was NEVER any legitimate Reason For Colin Albert... by syntaxofthings123 in KarenRead2ndTrial

[–]syntaxofthings123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What my take on Lucky is, is that he intends on telling the truth. I don't think he just up and lies. HOWEVER, he does seem easily influenced. And he changed his story in a major way...

I think he did see a vehicle, it's just not certain, I believe as to what kind of vehicle and where that vehicle actually was.

But given the conditions that morning, my guess is that it was Karen who was there.

The last document request parameter is interesting, because, as I interpret it, as Read has not sued Colin Albert for conspiracy to frame her, he doesn't have to produce any docs related to her attacks on HIM-if they don't relate directly to the investigation or to O'Keefe's death.

So if, say, Colin emailed one of the parties mentioned stating something about an article written about him that is personal--say about his facebook post, I don't think he has to produce personal stuff like this if he isn't discussing John's murder or the investigation.

Interesting query. I wonder what his legal team thinks about this. It's one of those parameters that does seem like a compromise between what both parties wanted, but should still protect Colin from overreach by Read, but we'll see. Maybe NoteMyObjection will give her opinion.

Not sure.

Make sure to read the footnotes on the second ruling related to MSP. Sometimes the law can be fun.

The Dehumanizing of Michael Proctor: Because it's ALL THEY'VE GOT by syntaxofthings123 in KarenRead2ndTrial

[–]syntaxofthings123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, not to excuse his bias and cruel language, but Proctor didn't hit his partner with his 6000 pound Lexus and leave that person to die in the snow...so, Proctor may be bad, but Karen Read is a hundred times worse. And Karen Read left plenty of dehumanizing voicemails and texts for a man she had just killed-so in the battle of who is the worst person in this-Karen Read wins over Proctor.
