Rekieta Law YouTube Channel

Jury selection going on right now

this is the trial of the officer who is heard saying "taser, taser, taser" but pulls her gun and shoots the man she was trying to tase

ETA: no Legal Bytes unfortunately so far... just Rekieta & Uncivil Law

Why go to trial? It's clear cut negligent homicide.

This sound a LOT like the Fruitvale Station case where the transit cop went for a taser and accidentally grabbed his gun instead.


The breakdown of that case covered a number of reasons why it happened, with one of the big deals being that a taser with a pistol grip shouldn’t have been issued since the cop couldn’t tell the difference between it and an actual pistol when reaching for it.

It should be the Ghislaine trial, but no cameras are allowed in the courtroom.

I read somewhere that Donte Wright’s estate has 3 civil cults filled against it.

She is definitely guilty or something and no longer needs to be a cop.

Negligent homicide sounds about right.

She was on either Tuesday or Wednesday. I only watched for a short while though.

state's evidence showing the deceased reaching for the shifter to put the car into gear with an officer in the car

that... wouldn't be good for the state right?

why's the state showing it?

IMO, unless the cop wasn’t wearing her taser in the properly trained position, or other such negligent practice, her mistaken action under pressure doesn’t rise to a criminal offense. Civil liability, yes, but not criminal.

There needs to be demonstrated that she made a negligent conscious choice which caused the death, and not simply making a mistake in the heat of battle.

They were covering this last week when I tuned in for the Jesse Smollett verdict. It was all Kim Porter. I was a bit surprised, to be honest.

Hey rt3 or anybody that knows,

I have a question about the super chat on the Rekeita stream:

If I’m watching the trial live and I pause it because I have to get some work done (God forbid), or need go do something for 30 minutes, and then I come back and press play; is the superchat still synced up with the video I am watching or is the superchat 30 minutes ahead of me in the “future”?

By the way:
those chat comments are hilarious but move so fast it’s hard to read them all!

the comments about the veteran self-defense expert of 40 years, were comedy gold!
That dude was Chuck Norris.
