Judge: "My secret illegal meeting was secret, so how'd you find out about it?"

[arcedavida]

This judge needs to be investigated and review all his cases... this is obviously not his first time using corruption.

[bebebaybay]

If the young thug with all the money he has to pay the best lawyer is being wronged by justice, imagine those who go to jail without any defense and still disrespected

[marinecorp]

Fun fact. Case law never expires. So even if a case law is from 1960 it still stands as the guideline. Where did this judge go to law school?

[Abu-huraira.]

The irony is that the court, which usually hands out gold stars to snitches, throws a tantrum when someone tattles on them. 😂

[unhaix]

This judge needs to be removed from the bench. He clearly has no intention of presiding over fair trials.

[Supahdave]

Honestly, this lawyer's career is going to be stellar from this point on.

"My integrity is so true I will be jailed by a corrupt judge rather than tell on someone who informed me of an illegal meeting between the judge and the prosecutor."

[nocturnalwolf]

The lawyer's new slogan:
I will go to jail for you.

The amount of clients he will get after this 😂

[orangeaurora]

judge "can i see some case law"
lawyer "heres some case law"
judge "i dont like that case law"

[Vampyratus]

Honestly, that is going to be the best advertisement that lawyer will ever need; "I care that much about the rights of my clients and sources that I would literally go to jail rather than betray their confidentiality!"

[topscorer]

Just hearing him go over who young thug is, with no judgement in his voice, was so refreshing. Like so many people on the news when they talk about him make light of him being a rapper and you can hear their disapproving tone. It’s great to hear the legal eagle just be factual and properly state who he is and what he has done.

[SweetBabboo]

They were going to give full immunity to Copeland when he was ALLEGEDLY the trigger man of murder?!? That's crazy!!! He doesn't want to even testify for the state (i can understand why), and they are pretty much begging him by a "get out of jail" card. When that didn't work, they used the "go directly to jail" card. Why would they not charge him if he ALLEGEDLY did the actual crime, especially when they knew he was not going to cooperate???
The state messed up by dismissing the charge of MURDERING A PERSON w/o a plea agreement, and now they think they can use unethical tactics to get what they want. They f'd up and should have to deal w/the consequences.

[electrified]

Being found in contempt for refusing to follow a potentially illegally issued order regarding a judge's potentially illegal activity is...certainly one way to play that.

[PpP-drod]

"1994 was 30 years ago. Do you have any more recent case law?"

"No, this issue doesn't come up very often. It seems most judges aren't as incompetent as you are."

[CrabbyOldLady]

Also, Eric Clapton has been indicted for his musical confession that he shot the sheriff. Clapton still maintains that he did not shoot no deputy.

Johnny Cash has been posthumously indicted for shooting a man in Reno just to watch him die.

And Freddie Mercury has been posthumously indicted for his confession to his mama that he just killed a man. Put a gun against his head, pulled his trigger, now he's dead. Prosecutors claimed that the charge is corroborated by Mercury's "Killer Queen", which speaks of "Gunpowder, gelatine, dynamite with a laser beam", clearly boasting about his expertise with lethal explosives.

[Kelarys]

It's like he realized he was caught with his hand in the cookie jar, then started panicking and went on a huge downward spiral, lashing out at anyone he could in the hopes that it would distract from his act of corruption, not realizing he's just digging his hole deeper and deeper. Damn, I wish I had popcorn

[toast]

Judge: "I demand to know who narc'd about my illegal meeting!"
Defense: "It was pure speculation on our part, up until you admitted to it."

[AshBlossomWorshiper]

And this is TELEVISED! It makes me terrified about the shady sh!t that happens in the untelivised cases.

[CommissarMitch]

I saw the title and thought "That is a bit presumptions is it not?" before I learned his art name was Young Thug.

[silentw]

I heard Kenneth Copeland and I was like “that rich church guy?” Boy was I wrong lol
