What's notable here is that the judge had already agreed this is the way to interpret the law, and the prosecution still maintained the charges should go to the jury by retroactively claiming his violation was instead having a short barreled rifle. Except it very obviously is not. They wanted to throw that charge to the jury, despite the fact its provably wrong and they know it, and the only way the jury could convict on it is if they are so biased and out for blood that they would convict on literally anything handed to them. Or more specifically, he wanted that charge to influence the jury's decision making on the other charges or help them compromise with a split verdict.
You just defined how the law works.
You have two lawyers.
One doing everything he can to have the truth come out (He's highly paid for it)
One doing everything he can to have his client win even if he did bad things by hiding some truth (He's highly paid for it)
And there's a group of low iq people with bare minimum job that are invited to decide of one faith depending how they feel that day. Personally hate black and the guy is black? GUILTY!
See where i'm going?
You clowns sit there happy with such a world to live in without doing anything bout it but watching it unfold like you were a viewers who could simply enjoy the show whatever the result is for that man who was made an example for the peon to fear.
Defending your turf = Jail
Don't defend your turf
Let the chaos happen
Chaos is good
So they say.
