Annoying defendant is annoying. I’m curious, though, whether defendants who make their trial a circus like this ever manage to use that as grounds for an appeal. I mean, for a successful appeal. (I’m not a lawyer, obviously.)

It’s unfortunate that there are politicians in the USA that act like this guy.

That lady in the back is remarkably calm for being so close to that two-way mirror he’s pounding on.

I can’t tell if this guy is having his rights trampled, or getting what he deserves? Maybe both?

He makes a persuasive case for leniency and his value and safety in the community.

Where is this guy’s counsel? Seriously, he should have a lawyer present.

He wasn’t sworn in. You can’t have a lawyer if you’re not sworn in. /s

It seems like he’s trying to do the “sovereign citizen” argument, even more inarticulately than most videos I’ve seen.
It’s the legal equivalent of flat-earth theory, so it wouldn’t do him much more good to be more articulate.

That cop (of whatever the correct nomenclature is in a courtroom) really comes out really quickly with the “stop resisting”. It’s like it’s a reflex.
