The jury directions and verdict forms are not evidence and should not have affected the outcome of the Karen Read trial. The judge should facilitate clear communication between the jury and the court, so that their verdicts are communicated clearly to the court. The judge was not a facilitator in this case - far from it. I have my own ideas why - but I wonder if these verdict forms can be found now? I completely agree with your comment. I hope that the punishment of Karen Read by the judicial process ends, and she wins mightily in the civil courts.

​@@justme9794 Prison is justice for the victim's and their families. Courts are about the defendant's. Making sure they committed the crime they are charged with. Making sure there's nothing weird going on the state would rather cover up. They're not for you to satiate your vicarious bloodlust hearing every ruling go against the defense. So you cheer from home too ignorant to comprehend what you are cheering about. There's something very weird about this case. Seth Kenny, the Sara woman and all the state. I don't know why Seth Kenny was allowed to be caught on body cam pocketing a round at the scene. While telling the cop you shake the dummies and hear the rattle and oh shit look over there. I don't know why he got to lead the investigators and prosecutor around by their noses. I don't know why no one cared when it came out Morrissey not only had privileged communications between Reed and her attorneys but gave them to Seth Kenny on top of everything wrong with that. But there's something really messed up about this situation they just decided to cover up rather than investigate. Cases like this get tossed not on technicalities but because once a prosecutor proves they can't be trusted. You can't trust that they didn't do much worse and were just not caught. Our courts have errored way too far to letting prosecutors like Morrissey run rampant. Innocent people go to prison all the time. Then the same American public that whines about "technicalities" whines instead "how could this be allowed to happen?"

As a New Mexican IMO this case should have never been brought to begin with. now the question becomes, if a prosecutor does this to a famous celebrity with the best lawyers money can buy, what are they doing to average citizen and what recourse do they have? If the State has any evidence (and they are the ones with the resources to collect it) and they don’t turn that over, then it makes the entire system a joke.

Morrissey has "resigned". And rightly so.

I can’t imagine being there… there was SO much going on!!!

deliberate withholding of evidence by prosecution

I atill believe the live rounds on set were a set up. On the cart on set, there was a whole box labeled "dummies" and when they opened the box ALL of the bullets were dudds but ONE! How does that happen?

What consequences is morrissey facing?

And after questioning...Judge sat there in shock. Eyes and eyebrows physically, involuntarily wide open. Staring straight ahead...She realized the unbeliveably rare but brazen Brady violation occurring in her court.

The judge in this case gave me hope for our justice system. Then I read Lally's motion response to motion to dismiss. Knocked me right back into reality. This is why trials must be shown to the public.

Yes. She said came in later, around April, after the Hannah case and was unaware of this evidence being withheld. In an interview, she said during the lunch break she suggested to the prosecution group, they dismiss the case, that it wasn’t right, it was proper procedure, yada yada, and they told her “No.” When they came back from lunch, and Morrisey took the stand to try and defend/talk her way out, that’s when Johnson said she couldn’t be apart of this, walked up the judge and resigned.

I have seen this Prosecutor Morrissey once before.. and disliked her right away.. its indeed interesting that in the end.. she was indeed bad person.. hid evidence.. selfish.. wanted to win at any cost.. even hiding exculpatory evidence. I read her bad vibes the first time i watched her on one of those online court processes.

I think the live ammunition came from Seth Kinney

Trying to make a distinction regarding live rounds vs dummy rounds based on brass or nickel primers is absolutely absurd.

I've never even heard of a prosecutor taking the stand. She was definitely trying to save her own career not the case. I would be shocked if she isn't dragged before the bar and her license isn't in peril.

It seems that over the last 8 years there has been a very significant shift in the culture of the DA’s and local Prosecutors. Decisions on which cases to prosecute. The lack of separation between police and the courts. Manipulation of law and jurisprudence to lay charges. We need to push back. Misconduct such as this needs to be addressed with serious consequences and be made public. Law needs to be written clearly and specific. The ambiguity in the law is how lawyers win and lose and that is not ok. Law needs to be objective or as objective as it can be. There is too much nuance.

The loaded cartridges being filed under a different case and different evidence. That happened during the Reed trial. Way, way, way before her claimed just finding out this morning. She lied under oath about when she became aware of the cartridges. I think at some point all these women realized they were played by Seth Kenny. But instead of coming clean they just decided to help him further cover things up. Here's the best part. After the Reed trial body cam video came out. It showed Kenny "helping" the detectives. He picked up a "dummy" and while shaking it and explaining it should rattle realized it didn't. He then pocketed it. All caught on body cam. It's a great oh shit moment and it's kinda sad it didn't get more attention.

Good coverage & breakdown.

Thank you to you and Chandler for covering this trial...so very interesting

AB was apparently aware that Hannah had brought live rounds on set. For that reason, one could argue that he should have checked the gun himself. But the defense suggested that Kenny had mistakenly brought live rounds on the set, mislabeling them. If AB had seen the round taken from a box marked "dummies," he wouldn't have had a rationale to check the gun. Kenny's error would also absolve Hannah of wrongdoing, too.

The armorer case should also be dismissed with prejudice. Every case under the Santa Fe DA office is now suspect. Talk about a sh*tshow. I hope they prosecute everybody who conspired these 2 trials.
