MB Civil Trial: JK/KK Contempt of Court?

[FitzE]

And they are equally unacceptable no matter when they are made: at trial, at a Krol hearing, at the water cooler, etc.

That kind of behaviour towards the people who come before you in your position as a public servant paid for by those same people demonstrates the opposite of the character needed to sit on the bench. It indicates someone unfit for such a powerful position.

I imagine if someone wanted to call off the dogs or try and keep the public silent to lessen opposition they would say something like “If you dare file anything it could go worse for MB”.

That speaks to either a very probable fear of punitive response OR in a more nefarious way as a warning/threat.

I guess it’s easier to see intent or motive for saying this if you consider the affiliations and leanings of the speaker.

The admonition that MB supporters think carefully before accusing a judge of improper conduct initially came from @Angela_Freda.

If he’s an impartial jurist

He’s proven he isn’t.

Really? Has he been disbarred? Suspended? Reprimanded? Defrocked?

Who do you imagine would not have picked up on that?

3D chess players maybe as they’re not especially bright.

Just LOL that LK would not have assumed that Eggbutt’s reference to hyenas was not meant to apply to her and her family.

@Angela_Freda spoke truth.

Public service reminder: Yesterday someone spent a lot of effort…and then got completely shut down. Please keep that in the back of your mind when deciding on what to respond to today.

Prinzess Lollypop’s Praetorian Guard is back online.

It must be very tiring to be devoted to defending Lollypop on a full time basis. And frustrating.

It was a cruel and petty remark on the judges part. I thought we as a society had moved on from judging people on how they look. I see plenty of 58+ yo men with pony tails, and it’s quite fashionable for the younger set to have a 2-3 day growth. Taylor knows what MB had access to-he’s the one who remanded MB to jail for the last 3 years!

@Angela_Freda spoke truth.

Didn’t you suggest that “truth” was designed to stop people from filing complaints against Taylor?

I’m extremely skeptical of LOs claim that the logistics of being in jail are what explain MBs appearance at the trial.

Gang members charged with multiple homicide are presented at trial looking neat and spiffy.

[Kitty64]

It doesn’t matter. He could’ve shown up looking like Rip Van Winkle. The judge has no business commenting on his appearance.

Hyenas - before someone rips me a new one for my hyena analogy, let me provide some info. Hyenas are highly intelligent animals generally led by alpha females. They are intensely family oriented and work together to achieve their goal, which is to reproduce and survive. They are considered an Apex predator due to their ability to plan and work together to kill their prey. They are remarkable animals in the wild. I am reminded of the Kanareks when I think of a hyena.

@Angela_Freda

Cunning is a word I’d apply to both.

Diabolical is a word I’d apply to the human variety.

[KurPlexed]

How bout’ that fundraiser?

[CurrentlyHorseless]

I agree. It’s the obligation of the defense lawyer to ensure the defendant/acquittee shows up to a hearing with the look most conducive to the judgement sought by the defense in that hearing/trial.

[KurPlexed]

Anyone have any good recipes? I’ll take any. Lol

[Sdel]

I have one for Mediterranean meatballs.

[KurPlexed]

I’ll take it! Anything has got to be better.

[eggbutt]

No recipes for now unless I quickly repost the coconut cake recipe!

Since the air is being sucked out of the thread, it’s time to go to brunch. TTYL!

[Knights_Mom]

I’m a big fan of Mediterranean meatballs.

Exactly, yes

And he’s maligned (edit for autocorrect) the jury’s judgement, suggesting they were not astute enough to decide for themselves what his demeanor spoke to. That’s a bad look for a judge.
