Kids in the Hall - Until Proven Guilty

[@variable5515]

Pretty impressive how they captured all the nuance of a modern courtroom trial.

[@DivineRedwood]

And the whores!

[@erikwheeldon4171]

Agreed!!! Especially the part with the whores…

[@aquamarine99911]

Starting with the prosecutor in a murder trial making the defendant his first witness. Classic legal strategy.

[@XtremiTeez]

​@@aquamarine99911no, because the witness was "still under oath", meaning he had already been sworn in and asked questions by the prosecutor.

[@aquamarine99911]

@@XtremiTeez Lol, what? The first post and my post are obviously sarcastic. Are you being sarcastic? Because otherwise your post makes no sense. In a real criminal trial, the prosecution leads off by calling ALL of its witnesses to testify as to the defendant's guilt. The prosecution is not even allowed to call the defendant as a witness. After the prosecution's case is closed, THEN the defendant's lawyer calls his or her witnesses. At this point, the defendant may testify, or may choose not to. Trump, for example, chose not to in his NY hush money trial. If the defendant does testify, only then may the prosecution cross-examine him or her. If you're suggesting that the prosecutor here (Bruce McCulloch) was cross-examining the defendant (Dave Foley), then how could Bruce then call another prosecution witness? At this stage of the trial, after the defence case had closed, he'd only be able to call a witness to rebut a new point or defence raised by the defendant's witnesses - e.g. an alibi defence that had never been raised before on pre-trial discovery. But that's not what was happening here. The witness (Mark McKinney) testimony would have been led by the prosecution during its initial phase of the trial. It's pretty damning evidence.

[@Stevo935]

"Oh right. And I would never lie under oath.....not to GOD......" That line broke me up, lol

@fred savage : No, you are the coward. Let's see you make jokes about Thor.

[@JanetStarChild]

@fred savage Making a joke about the Abrahamic god is in fact an indirect joke towards Islam (as well as Christianity and Judaism).

[@JanetStarChild]

@fred savage Correct, but it _is_ an Abrahamic religion, which was the point I made. When people talk about "God", they're usually referring to the Abrahamic god character, which is the core mythological component that Judaism, Christianity and Islam all share.

[@JanetStarChild]

@fred savage It's the same god, you ignoramus. Put your foolish prejudice aside and do some research. Yahweh and Allah are literally the same character, like Zeus and Jupiter.
