Barisone Trial Starting Monday, 3/28

Yeah sorry I meant to quote MHM, whose question you were answering. I wasn’t disagreeing with you. Just clarifying that the defense generally cannot compel prosecution witnesses to talk to them before trial, unlike the prosecution who can use grand juries and subpoenas.

I’d be curious to know whom he acted out against before. Probably someone he dealt with after his Olympics run.

Also, nothing has been directly revealed about how LK came to MB to begin with, other than she seems to have approached him while in Florida. RC, who was also at the farm with MB, was living near LK when she resided in NC for those many years.

what the???

Where do yall hang out with your horses?

I can’t believe how many people want to excuse away these texts as OK. Imagine LK had said that?

It’s ok to say - yeah that’s not right. But I still support him. It won’t make a difference. But to pretend that it’s fine for a person to train that way, for a person to be boasting about it that way is ok, is very very sad.

Nice try to you as well. I was referring to his comment on horse abuse.
So MB harassing people as well as abusing horses is alright with you…got it.

I don’t know a single trainer or barn owner who hasn’t made it miserable for someone who won’t leave whom they want out. How else will you do it, other than pay money to get the out?
It happens many times a year, no one has that kind of money to spend on litigation to evict a horse and owner. You figure out a way to get them to leave.

Harassing messages? Shall I post LKs harassing messages to me again? Seems you’ve forgotten.

As for MB sending harassing messages to LK has that been shown yet?

And no it’s not OK and I never said it was.

Is that an actual sentence?

Again it’s done all over. I’m surprised you didn’t know.

And btw my saying it exists doesn’t mean I do it or condone it.

Train what way?
I didn’t see any specifics and people who worked with him haven’t materialized in the last two years sharing his abusive nature.

Seriously? You haven’t seen or heard of board barns ostracizing someone to make them so uncomfortable they move? Wow.

Ever heard of having a “come to Jesus” moment with a horse?

There’s no law against being a jerk. And it sounds like she’s been somewhat protected from legal recourse by her parents financial, professional, and social positions.

Based on my extensive legal education watching Law & Order, I always thought the defense attorney could not interview the prosecution witness. Based on more knowledgeable posts above I googled and found this which iI thought was interesting.

When you’re riding? I’ve heard of it if a horse might kill you but riding?

I believe we will soon hear testimony regarding MB’s yelling and screaming at “everyone” and have it portrayed as the devil himself.

Yesterday, a couple of posters provided an overview of the trial, is anyone available to do the same today? It was super helpful and appreciated!

Her harassment is not right…neither is his. Nor the way she has been harassed here.
But you excuse his. I got it.
Believe me no one has forgotten she harassed you.
