Why does nobody else in the universe have this much trouble giving documents the public is entitled to have. Called “Beating around the bush.”

[CreolePrincess]

He lied n lied n lied… this entire DA office is embarrassing!

[GlowWorm-kd]

You have to be very clear and consice with that office. I don't know how the judge doesnt see that?

[biancarenee]

Shame on Fulton County! If this is how speaks in a court room in front of a Judge makes me believe how his attitude is with citizens. Entitled

[docdurdin]

This reminds me of the question to Wade.. " Did you stay in a cabin with Ms. Willis? Ever? Ever!

[Holyterror]

This guy is very unprofessional, and disrespectful and I think it's just more proof of the appearance of impropriety in the DA's office.

[raymondcheek]

Pretty telling when the judge had an immediate response to a lawyer saying assumed and having zero response to a person testifying saying assumed 12 times.

[lisal]

How is this judge allowing this. Gross

[ajadotson]

He made Fani proud today… play with this man, Go

[jensinedeanda]

Why is this judge allowing this witness to talk like this?

[williamseddon]

Easy to dislike this witnesses attitude and demeanour… and I do?

[missalphaomegagod-u]

Hahaha they running circles around the court system just as it has been designed 😂😂😂😂🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

Ashley needs to ASK DIRECT QUESTIONS. YES or KNOW

[claudiamontano]

ASUME, ASUME, ASUME! We ALL know what that MEANS.

[MoneyMindsetSOULutionist]

TI appears to be doing things (mannerisms, shifting in his seat etc) for optics!

He’s very argumentative & combative!

He thinks he’s cute & is carrying on unprofessionally!

[lizdk]

What an awful human being this witness is, a real b... The judge should not let someone working for the people speak like this. He is so disrespectful, I know he works for Fani but are they by any means related, seems like the same genetics!!!🙄

[Kyle-vkfe]

I've never seen a judge allow a witness to question the prosecution

[rnvrnv]

Uh Oh! This man was not prepared for these Hotshot questions! His answers were very unrighteous!

[rachelpickens]

Is there any judges not on fanni Willis payroll?

[SOURCECODE_GAMEON]

We can all learn much on poise from this judge 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿.
