The other troubling issue is why did the prosecutor not turn down this case in the first place after reviewing the evidence?


That is the proper question.


I can answer that. Whenever LEOs commit acts for which the officer and his agency may get sued, the DA will maintain charges as leverage to protect his political crony, sheriff or police chief's department, trying to get a plea deal not to file suit. I have witnessed deputies, detectives, and even DAs make provably false affidavits with no consequences, because guess what? They decide whether an arrest will be made and a charge brought and usually cover each others arse, unless it warrants the FBI or the state's attorney general's attention.

The defendant kind of said as such in the video.

It became a game of chicken as to who would break.

Unfortunately, that is the definition of lawfare and should be punished with extreme prejudice once the judge threw out the case.

I will bet my next paycheck that he had another job in law enforcement within 2 weeks. There's A LOT of shitty cops out there.

I copied the definition of directed verdict, other than that, no?

During a jury trial, evidence generally isn't submitted to the judge alone for the purposes of a directed verdict; that would inappropriately invade the province of the jury, which is why it read so fricky. In other articles, it makes clear that the OP's summary is incorrect. The evidence didn't go before the judge immediately before the "jury deliberated"; it went before the judge before a jury trial began, meaning it was the subject of a pre-trial motion and this wasn't a directed verdict during a jury trial.

But to circle back around to the frickery, if I know the prosecutor has evidence that I 100% need for my case in chief, I would be filing a motion to compel, and then a motion for sanctions if not answered promptly, long before we made it to the two year mark. It's really weird that this would have dragged on so long before that evidence came to light. Not impossible, but really fricking weird.

It sounds like you know more than I do about the law.

I sum it up to "he said vs he said" as to a possible reason why the judge denied the request pretrial.

Something in the law enforcement officer's testimony could have made the trial legitimate in the eyes of the judge.
When that failed, the pretrial evidence to dismiss was enough to dismiss before a jury verdict.

Cops are morons.

Last year Georgia cops arrested a paraplegic for kicking down a woman's door and fleeing on foot

I have a good friend who is a civil rights attorney. He has sued the same officer, successfully, FIVE times. The offender simply moves to another agency and repeats.
