Right, and this is what we're calling when 42 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: cannabis goes bad, but not really, but not really, so 43 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: I'll do what we do out of the out of California. 44 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: The headline reads, or would read if I wrote it, 45 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 1: electrical fire leads to bust of cannabis cultivation farm. Now 46 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: let's talk about that for a minute. What exactly does 47 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: that mean? An electrical fire. So you've heard us talk 48 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 1: at nauseum about people's rights and you know, cops coming, 49 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: they need a warrant, you know, never consent to searches 50 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: and all that stuff that helps us get cases dismissed 51 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: when cops do things the wrong way and violate your 52 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: rights and do illegal searches. But when something happens and 53 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: an officer is lawfully positioned somewhere and they see something illegal, 54 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: they don't need a warrant. They don't. That is probable cause. 55 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: And you're kind of screwed. You are very so. I mean, 56 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: you know some examples, right, We've represented people who we're 57 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: in an area where there was a robbery and the 58 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 1: person ran through their you know, grow and the cops 59 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: followed them and then boom busted and then you have 60 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 1: a domestic violence. Those are big domestic violence dispute the 61 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: neighbors called the cops on somebody, or called the cops 62 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: because you're borthy and girlfriend's hitting you, whatever, or you 63 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: called the cop on your wife or girlfriend, and then 64 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: the cops find your grow Like, how do people actually 65 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: not thinking that though in the heat of the moment 66 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: you're fighting, it happened. That's just crazy to say. It 67 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: happens a lot. That's like, you know, like the common 68 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: sense of most folks that really, you gotta call the complict. 69 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: We can't call the cops. What we have. We have 70 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: to figure this out. We have a no police context, 71 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: you know exactly. That's just our team like our teams 72 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: like no police. We don't need the police. Figure this out. Well. 73 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: I got to fight once with my wife early on 74 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: in our marriage.

What do you think of the deal, Joe? 136 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: And you didn't get me a chance to get to 137 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: that part of my script. Well, I think it's a 138 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: great deal, Mark, as I thought you would. Here's the 139 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: thing about six months for that much and let me well, 140 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: let me let me say this, right l A County, 141 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: when you go into l A County jail for on 142 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: a six month bid, you're out in twenty five days, 143 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: if that. If that, maybe maybe like maybe two to 144 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: five days. Yeah, Ashy County of Orange County. I'm not 145 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 1: gonna say. Sometimes you just go through the loop. You get, 146 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: you go, you go, they check you in, God, we 147 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: haven't got a bed, and then you're out. If it's 148 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: l a county, he's in non violent, non violent, you're 149 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: gone county. Hold on any no prior. Orange County will 150 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: hold you for the whole six months and maybe catch 151 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: two more. Uh. But they give you organic food there exactly, 152 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: if you could actually say that you're on there right. Um. 153 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: You know. One of the other things though that that 154 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: I've noticed is in Orange County they have something called 155 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: the farm, you know, and the farms an outdoor of 156 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: I mean it's like an outdoor playground they had they had, 157 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: I mean they have they have volleyball there. I mean, 158 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 1: it's ridiculous. Come out looking better than ever, No more 159 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 1: bur frees, You're actually getting real workouts, come out looking 160 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: like it's a let's go to camp. What happens Mark? Now? So, 161 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 1: I mean obviously you know that that's a great deal 162 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: and a lot of greedy attorneys. Why do you say greedy. 163 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: You said that twice, now you said earlier and right now. 164 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 1: I don't understand, because it's greedy to take somebody's money 165 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 1: and then go to court once and go, hey, I 166 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: got a great deal. You four you yet? Oh, so 167 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 1: it's greedy from the lawyer's standpoint to say, let's just 168 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: take this deal. I'm done with your case, right because 169 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 1: I made a bunch of money. I had to go 170 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: to court once.

It's five to ten 178 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 1: grand the range usually. Yeah, you know, I'm not too sure, 179 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: but I think from what I hear and stuff like, 180 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: there's guys out there charge too.

Take it. Take 222 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: that deal. That's a good deal. And my client felt 223 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: the same way. But as I told the d A 224 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: and my client, you know, nobody belongs in jail for plant. 225 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: You know, if that's gonna happen. You can't just let 226 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: it happen. We gotta at least fight. Let's see what 227 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: we can do. Let's see where it goes, right, so 228 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: we can, But let me ask you, when you fight, 229 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: could get worse.

Absolutely, 231 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:07,560 Speaker 1: And what's the odds of that happening here?

What are the odds? Roughly on? Okay, 234 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 1: let's fight this a little bit and it goes worse? 235 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: Has that happened? I know it can, but it hasn't happened. 236 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: I know it has. Has it happened for you? It 237 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 1: hasn't happened for us, because when the time comes, we 238 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: are very prepared smart about telling okay, this is the 239 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 1: this is the deal you need to take, you know, 240 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,559 Speaker 1: and to the point where some clients no, I don't 241 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: want to take I want to go trial. And if 242 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: it's to the point where we're recommending you take the deal, 243 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: we'll go to trial. You're gonna sign this paper here 244 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 1: that says we told you to take a deal, and 245 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna do everything we can at trial, but you 246 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: really should take this deal because it's not looking too good. 247 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: It's the best deal you're gonna get. Absolutely, absolutely, So 248 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: we continue through the discovery process, which for those that 249 00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: don't know, that's when we get to gather up like 250 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: the police reports and he notes audio video, any evidence 251 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: that the prosecution intends on using. That's not hide the ball. 252 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: It's almost like, why would you need to gather it 253 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: for this scenario because the fireman seen the plants. The 254 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: cops came, there's all these plants, Like you have a warrant, 255 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 1: you know, they don't need a warrant to do that aspect. Well, 256 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: I mean if they could see in there and it's 257 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: a uh illegal operation, Mark, what is the scenario of 258 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: why it's important? Because I'm looking at it from my step, 259 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: I'll break it down. I'm gonna break it down because 260 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: even though you know we heard the headline electrical fire, 261 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 1: I gotta look at everything, the fire report, the police report, 262 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: because what if what if this happened and the fire 263 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: department was over here and then there's something went down 264 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 1: where I Something I read triggers me going, wait a minute, 265 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: that's not right. This isn't really probably cause they weren't 266 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: lawfully positioned where they could. They did a little extra here, 267 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: they were over here, and then somebody whatever. And it's 268 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 1: like the case we had with my my nephew years 269 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,319 Speaker 1: of years ago. The audio stops, wait right, and we 270 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:05,719 Speaker 1: have the cops going, we gotta find a way to 271 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 1: get in the house. How are we going to find 272 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: a way to get in? We gotta figure something. We 273 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 1: gotta make something up. You know, you gotta get all 274 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 1: the information. I get it now, we're not. We gotta 275 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 1: do the read everything. Your job looking up. That's where 276 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:17,959 Speaker 1: you got. That's why they have a helicopter in the 277 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: jet and we don't so so. And the other thing 278 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 1: we're looking for are, like I said, things that the 279 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: cops did wrong. Maybe we can file motions to attack 280 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,479 Speaker 1: certain things here and there if the rights were violated. 281 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: Was there anything anything to get some leverage so I 282 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 1: can go, hey, we're gonna do this motion. So unfortunately, 283 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 1: the cops in this case did everything right, and they 284 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 1: were actually nice to my client who told me so 285 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 1: was he there? Yeah, he was showed up on the 286 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: so the fire was going on. He's there watering his plans. No, no, no, no, no, no. 287 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: Somebody called him and said, your places on fire. He's all, yeah, 288 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: the hot spot. No, literally, it's on fire. It could 289 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: have been because of his his fault, because of how 290 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: much electricity was going. It was the it was the 291 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 1: next door was the next door neighbor. And I'm just 292 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 1: saying that combined that power running through that building, we're 293 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 1: talking house, residential, resident These were residential. Is a residential, say, 294 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: don't know why, I'm imagining some building. It's a big backyard, 295 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: big residential. All right, So I'm back in its house. 296 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: Several months later, I'm back. I'm back with the court 297 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 1: talking to d A. Now there's a new offer. Thirty 298 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 1: days county jail. Now it was eight months. Now it's 299 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: gone down to thirty days county jail. My mouth is 300 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: wide open, by the way, like like wow, two year 301 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 1: in the game, two years of informal probation, explaining explaining 302 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: formal probation. So typically with the misdemeanor in California, you're 303 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 1: gonna get with it. Three years informal probation, which means 304 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: number one, you don't have to check in with a 305 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: probation of felony. Probation is when you have to check 306 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: in with the probation. Basically, informal probation is like we're 307 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: all here, we're walking around, we're living our lives unless 308 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: you get popped. If we commit a crime and get caught, 309 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 1: we're committing a crime. We get caught. That's it and 310 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: your no, no. If you're on informal probation, you commit 311 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 1: another crime and get caught, then the deal you made 312 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: to be on probation gets taken away. You could get 313 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: thrown in jail for however long that crime you committed 314 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: the maximum penalty is, and you get a second misdemeanor 315 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 1: for probation violation. Okay, So if you don't do anything wrong, 316 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: so it's a smack on the wrist with don't get 317 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 1: the handcuff put on your boy. You better stay clean. 318 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 1: You don't even need to report nowhere, don't yours. But 319 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: if you do get caught up, now you're getting caught 320 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: up for real. Now they're going to really yea. And 321 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 1: then the other term that they want in here informal 322 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: probation for two years, two years, thirty days, right, and 323 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: then a fourth that's even better, fourth waiver, So your 324 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 1: fourth Amendment right that you hear us talk about all 325 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 1: the time. Is your right to be free from unreasonable 326 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 1: governmental intrusion like a search, and they have to get 327 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 1: a warrant or have probable cause. Most criminal defense most 328 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:23,360 Speaker 1: criminal please include the fourth waiver, which says, while you're 329 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 1: on probation, you don't have that right. A cop can 330 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 1: come up to you and just search you, no probable cause, 331 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: no stop checking. I don't know if they can do 332 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: a cavity search, but that's the fourth wave and another condition. 333 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 1: Any condition of a plea like that, any plea is 334 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: violating no laws. So I mean, you could be on 335 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 1: informal probation and jaywalk technically and that's violating a law, 336 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: and you could be held to be violating your probation. 337 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: I've never seen that happen, but just as a point 338 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: to make now, they went to eighty hours of community service. 339 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: So they took the six months to thirty days and 340 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 1: added eighty hours of community service. Well that's that's I mean, 341 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 1: you know, you almost want less community service and more 342 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: jail time. I mean, you know, like eight hours, that's 343 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: two full weeks of work, but still two three weeks 344 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: of work a month of jail. You're not gonna do 345 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,440 Speaker 1: a month in jail. You're gonna do a week in jail, 346 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:18,679 Speaker 1: and I'm working. I mean, I think that deal's that 347 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 1: deal is even better than the first. I personally would say, hey, 348 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 1: can I get the extra two weeks? Man? You're doing 349 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: probation like that, you're doing that community service, You're meeting 350 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 1: folks and you're you're you're setting up some new deals 351 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: and there ain't no deals there, bro, they I mean, look, 352 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 1: I had to do like a hundred and some hours 353 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: of probation and it was a community service to community 354 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: service and months. It was the worst. Four hours a 355 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 1: day every day. Meet me here, your friends hawking by 356 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 1: you're laughing at literally I got I got people texted me, Bro, 357 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: I've seen you on the side of the two way 358 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 1: dog and you know the j Orange.

Yeah, no, 360 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,160 Speaker 1: couch is no bro, I'll do anything. Okay, So did 361 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 1: you did you tell your client this is a good deal? Well, 362 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: first I had to tell the d A. Reminded the 363 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: d A, I will not have my client plead any 364 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:14,199 Speaker 1: jail time, not one day, not one day for this plant. 365 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,360 Speaker 1: And then the d A hits me with what's your defense? 366 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,919 Speaker 1: He had an ill and was like exasperate, he had 367 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 1: an illegal cultivation. The officers did everything right. There's no 368 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 1: what's your defense. It's a good question. It's a question, 369 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: it absolutely is, and your answer your rebuttal I said, 370 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: it's not really a defense but a belief that twelve 371 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: jurors are not going to send someone to jail over 372 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: a plant that has partially legalized and people are opening 373 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: legal business all over the country. I don't think the 374 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 1: jury is going to convict. I think they're going to 375 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 1: utilize what we call jury nullification, which that's a whole 376 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: other that's a whole other show. Okay, and how and 377 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 1: how and how? At trial, I can't tell the jury 378 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,919 Speaker 1: about r nullification, but somebody out in front of the 379 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 1: courthouse can hand out pamphlets about it because it's the 380 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 1: First Amendment right. I can't talk about it. That's a 381 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: whole But it's so confusing that it's great. It's a 382 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 1: juror's right to sit there and you and as a juror, 383 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: you can't say it and express it or else you'll 384 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 1: get excused. But this law is wrong, and I'm not 385 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 1: convicting this person. That's your right as a juror. You 386 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 1: could sit in a criminal try, any trial and say 387 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 1: nothing to nobody, vote your way and say nothing to nobody. Yeah, 388 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 1: oh you can, absolutely, And everybody keeps saying hey, and 389 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: you're just like, I plead the fifth is that you can. 390 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 1: You can give your vote and shut the funk up, 391 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 1: but you have to give her vote yes something, And 392 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: then he said that your clients. Well, the d A 393 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 1: then said, I guess we'll go into trial, which I 394 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 1: didn't really expect because we're in COVID and it's like, really, 395 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 1: you want to do a trial over a plant, non violent, 396 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 1: don't you got?
