Judge Scolds Defense Attorney Over Questioning of Shooting Victim

Ойын-сауық

Without the presence of the jury, New Jersey Judge Stephen Taylor scolded defense attorney Edward Bilinkas over his questioning of shooting victim Lauren Kanarek.
Happening In Court:
Continued Cross Exam of Lauren Kanarek - Survived Shooting
A coach and former Olympic competitor in the equestrian sport of dressage is standing trial for shooting his student and firing at her fiancé on August 7, 2019. Michael Barisone, 57, has maintained self-defense.
Barisone faces two counts of attempted murder and two counts of second-degree possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose.
Authorities said he shot student-tenant Lauren Kanarek in the chest twice, and opened fire at her fiancé Rob Goodwin, but he missed. Barison had been trying to evict Kanarek from his farm in Long Valley, New Jersey, claiming that the couple threatened him. He even sued police, claiming they failed to investigate when he called 911 three times and that they lied in their reports.
To be sure, the dislike between him and his student was mutual. In fact, Kanarek voiced concerns for her safety.
“I’m being bullied by a 6’3” man,” she wrote on Facebook before the shooting in a now unavailable post, according to The New York Times. “Bullied to the point I’m afraid. It’s very complicated- I’m not sure of what I can say here- but it seems as if Safe Sport was created for exactly this reason.”
The SafeSport organization fields allegations of abuse in U.S. Olympic and Paralympic sports.
A judge dismissed Barisone’s lawsuit.
“Courts have held that a plaintiff does not have a constitutional right to have police investigate on their behalf, let alone do so to their satisfaction,” Superior Court Judge Louis Sceusi said, according to the Morris County outlet The Daily Record in November.

    @@Nuttyirishman85 of course it is the judge’s decision whether or not to allow a question, as well as what evidence to allow. A judge has broad discretion to control the trial, and that includes counsel’s misbehavior, as for instance asking a question which introduces an excluded topic, attempting to introduce evidence or an inference for which there is no evidence. The judge was clear about that. If counsel continued to do so, the court could impose sanctions on counsel, or, if necessary, declare a mistrial.

    They should all be top notch, but they aren’t. They’re mostly more biased than factual. Btw, this is only one portion of one trial in this judge’s career. While I’m pleased to see him act accordingly to his profession, I can’t say he’s a fair, or even good, judge. He may be, but this clip doesn’t give enough details to prove either way. His bias could have led him to use this argument, this time, but ignore it in another case. We don’t know.

    The desperate attorney is making a hail-mary attempt because his defense is losing, to go down a line of questioning that has no factual evidence. It was the defense team's job to get any evidence entered into the case PRIOR to trial that supported this line of questioning if he wanted to go this route. He missed his opportunity, and thank God for Judge Taylor's denial and upholding the victim's right to a fair trial.

    I actually had the same thought as the defense lawyer as I was listening to her testimony. Here are two facts that we do know for certain - she wanted to destroy his life and she is a liar. What if they tackled him when he arrived because they saw he had a gun, she subsequently accidentally got shot and they saw this as their opportunity to get him. Her word is the only "evidence" of what happened that day and she is clearly a manipulative liar.

Your and this attorney's problem is that you have nothing to backup any of the above other than your disliking of the witness. And that's not how a trial works.

But I can summarize reality for you; Attorneys sometimes have crappy clients/cases, and, since they have an ethical duty to zealously represent their clients and have to be quick on their feet (such as here, when they're examining or cross-examining a hostile witness), part of the job is making arguments about the rules of evidence. Sometimes the judge doesn't agree. Sometimes the lawyers are wrong. Sometimes the judges are wrong, which is why it helps to lodge exceptions to evidentiary rulings on the record, so the issue can be preserved for an appeal. Not saying this attorney was correct that he should have been able to ask this question, but certainly the youtube peanut gallery of the righteously indignant like OP and yourself should save the pearl clutching for something that they're qualified to have an opinion about.

    Being a liar or having a contentious relationship, taunting, or surreptitious recordings do not justify premeditated attempted homicide with a firearm at close range. The judge may be very “engaged”- but his rulings are appropriate and supported by law (procedural and substantive.) The defense attorney has a weak defense theory: his client had “unraveled” or was suffering a mental defect at the time of offense. The judge has to constantly intervene (as guardian of the trial record) admonishing defense counsel who continues to overstep/sidestep admissible boundaries, and seems cavalier as he engages in a line of questions that either lack foundation or test the bounds of relevance.

It does my heart good to know that the government has hired such an esteemed and Honorable attorney to represent it. They need to quadruple this guy's salary!
