What she is doing is allowing him to act like a fool on camera which they both now the world can see. What is happening is we blame the judge for not taking heavy action but the judge's patience has her in a high ground because she is allowing the defendant to expose who is in court. If he is able to act the way he is in court for the world to see, image what happens in closed doors. Especially since the state had him under allegations of being a sex offender. Which can open doors to how the defendant can be abusive towards his loved ones. Which does come down to the idea this man does act foolish but these daily and hourly outbursts is setting in stone the life sentence for the defendant. Especially since it has been shown the defendant has no respect for the law and order and the judge and jury inside and outside of court. So, I say the judge knows what she is doing. She is allowing these outbursts because she knows the defendant is already 6 feet under in the grave he digs every day. That grave gets deeper and deeper everyday. Many times the defendant was warned, kicked, advised, and muted. The judge has the court in complete control by allowing these outbursts for the world to see how unlawful, disrespectful, misogynistic, inappropriate, and immature the defendant is acting.

Seriously. I kept looking at him. Nothing. Not even a flinch!

[@zumarie8215]

He's waiting for this guy to make a move so he can let it all out on him!!!

[@billnye1177]

The colored man that was next to him in the beginning gave up

[@darkangel9171]

He sits in a courtroom all day. It's easy money. When I did jury duty last year my guy was asleep 😂

[@floridagirl50]

This judge needs a gold medal.

[@Tasumi_Ashiru]

This Judge deserves a Supreme Court Apointment...

[@user-le2mm9mg1z]

she probably get it for her typing skills also she is the best

[@carolann811]

I like how he can use the term exculpatory evidence and apparently understand well enough what that means but he has trouble understanding when the judge says she's advising him.

[@moobocksniffle]

It's also ironic he understands that when he doesn't even "understand the true nature and cause of the charges against him"

[@lakeshagoodwin6421]

Whenever my children ask me why, I am going to tell them Illinois vs Allen 😂😂

[@dimechick]

Great idea 👌🏽😂😂😂

[@queenfpbt1212]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@vanthdreadstar8788]

I can’t wait to see how he reacts when the jury reads the verdict.

[@SteverRob]

Once he goes to prison, he'll proudly proclaim he's a lawyer.

[@veronicamorta4587]

😅😅😅😅😅👍🌹

[@richardcarlson7370]

Some prisons actually have college-level courses where inmates can study law and become lawyers. He is already demonstrating that he has what it takes. All he needs is to get his English language skills beyond those of a 10-year-old and he'll be all set to go.

[@mrusername3438]

@@richardcarlson7370 He also needs to learn the law.

[@elizabethloyd3713]

He may have to play another career role according to some talk coming from the prisons.

[@Valturnaqueen]

He will have to learn proper sentence structure and grammar. He has a long way to go. 😂😂😂

[@edwardgordon4309]

For the record, can we all agree that anyone who defends themself in a murder case and then proceeds to conduct themselves in an arrogant and narcissistic manner is not very swift

[@ScottBill28]

She deserves an award for being able to hold her composure so well. I know I couldn't.

[@libafried5840]

I find it amazing that trial need to go on for so long when there's no doubt that he is the perpetrator of that murderous incident.

[@MarieAntoinetteandherlittlesis]

He really thought the judge was gonna hear his argument, bang her gavel and set him free, and then discipline the prosecution?? Look how he pitches a fit when he doesn’t get his way. Imagine being around him in real life. Imagine he asks you to borrow money and you tell him no.

[@dennischristopher9952]

He would probably try to run you over if you said no

[@lindaaitken7679]

I think that is exactly what happened on 22 November 2021

[@cquinn4555]

Yep his girlfriend wouldn't give him money so he assaulted her

[@strawberryredz1997]

@@cquinn4555 ohh so that’s what got him, lol because it’s so obvious he doesn’t contain his emotions very well. Another man child, acting as his own defense.

[@mischagoss5708]

He axed Erika for money on Nov. 21st, she said no. We all see how that went.

[@imakeajiffypuff4525]

I wonder if he really thinks saying all of this is helping him in some way. He is in for a very rude awakening.

[@vikkahwindmeyer1836]

That’s what I’ve been wondering this whole time! Is he throwing these fits because he’s just stalling the inevitable or is he doing it because he actually believes he’s got some sliver of a chance of getting out of this?

[@nicholasosvatic9776]

You never know. It only takes one bleeding heart BLM liberal that thinks white privilege is a thing and he's a victim of systemic racism for a hung jury.

[@Romulan2469]

Tyrone is waiting to welcome him to his new cell block.

[@MexicanTeTe]

@@vikkahwindmeyer1836 He's trying to bait the judge to react to his outbursts in order to get a mistrial. It's a terrible strategy, but it's also totally useless considering this judge has the patience of a saint.

[@randahayes9382]

It's all a stall tactic and...... he gets to be "Star of the Day" like they do in kindergarten. And he's loving every minutes of it.

[@safetydancer87]

When that man said to have 73 counts dismissed I LOLed irl.

[@JeffreySmith-m3y]

Right? He legit thought that he had his ticket home with this.
