Now that's an interesting way to show a court he's not hurt like he calmed.

After being an interogator for the Army ... Being a lawyer was like holiday with hefty pay.😂😂😂

The interpreter should be charged with tampering with a witness or suborning perjury.

Bro had a PTSD flashback and threatened a man's life in court 😂

[GuapoBrian]

Just imagine how aggressive he sounded when said “Поднимите руки или я выстрелю!” 🤣🤣

[Anonsloth]

It probably wasn’t random, he probably warned the judge or bailiff before hand so he himself didn’t get shot. 😂😂😂

Idk. From what I know, as a Russian immigrant, no matter what my shoulder pain is, if I was threatened, “everybody’s hands go up… and they stay there”

We were asked for "any and all documents related to the case" -- which means, whatever you don't provide you can't use.
So i gathered up several thousand pages (including things not related to anything) and made 3 copies.
1) originals the defendent kept.
2) tabulate & organized pages for the Defendant's attorney.
And 3) the set we shuffled like cards and handed over to the Prosecuting attorney.
Spending their lawyer time sorting documents they lost the case.

Another option would have been to ask when he had lifted his arm a little, "And how high could you lift your arm before the injury?

While the United States did not directly engage in combat with the Soviet Union (including Russian soldiers) during the Korean War, they did occasionally capture and interrogate North Korean soldiers who were believed to be heavily influenced by the Soviet Union, effectively gaining intelligence about Soviet military tactics and strategies used by the North Korean forces; however, there were no instances of directly interrogating Russian soldiers on the Korean battlefield as the Soviet Union did not officially send troops to fight in Korea.

😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 bro I'm dying 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 what a savage

[BuleCat]

Eeeheheheheeee it would be sooo hard not to laugh after that. All professionalism gone😂

[DivineRedwood]

*Well that was stupid. Courts RECORD everything.*

[glockmat]

There was a very good way that the defense could still BS their way around this problem

The translator could have easily tell the lawyer that his client was threatened and that the phaseology was something a service like the KGB used

So that triggered a fight or flight response in the client, so he did raise his arm because that what he was trained to do since he was a kid, that the father basically exploited a trauma

And that in no world that is reflective of any working conditions, and that his client should not be threated to work

[rosetheraaa]

Okay that is why you need to do that and say when he asked that question to act in pain and not raise it

[blcservices]

Nobody watched the guy screwing up the drywall in the background? Filling seams with no tape..? Guess they can come back later and “crack fill”..🤦‍♂️

[richardthomson]

thats BS thats not how interpretation works in courts. Courts supply the interpreter there is zero chance that council will be allowed to supply them

Things that didn't happen except on The Brady Bunch, for 100, Alex

There are some places US soldiers can't go in Seoul. I knew an MP who would go to those places looking for soldiers. Sometimes, the soldiers would pretend to be either German or Russian, but this MP was fluent in both languages.

While the man was faking it.
It doesn't mean that when adrenaline runs through your body, you can feel pain when raising your hand. especially when you are shouted in the native language and it similar to the police words.
