  1. I think they should be able to tell the jury a plea deal was offered and what it was b/c in his it speaks VOLUMES! They do NOT offer what he was unless they know they are wrong or will NOT get a conviction when obviously if you are a DA & things begin to look in the different option (not guilty) dismissing it w/o prejudice would be the right thing to do. I think a big issue is DA's are elected in most places & they want to get as many convictions as possible for re•election causing them to want to convict A PERSON for the crime rather than THE o PERSON!

  2. Correction; This is definitely NOT, the 1st time he's spoken publicly since the gag order was lifted. He recently did an interview on my buddy's YouTube channel (VellyRay) up here in Portland.
    I've never met the man personally and it's clear he's no angel, but I do believe that he's innocent of this particular crime! 🤷‍♀️ What say you?

  3. It's pretty sad that everyone thinks taking a deal is something you should do if your innocent or is it just the presumption of guilt that makes people say that… because taking a deal means you committed the crime. BTW I've never said I lived at the treehouse and as you heard me testify have been there 3 times in my life. The story of the shirt goes back to the "gag order" and I bought it for the 1st interview I did after the order when I was no longer allowed to say I'm innocent… check the NY POST if you'd like to see the article but hopefully I continue to be able to speak and thank you for allowing me too.

  4. Attorney perspective- what he said about why he opted to represent himself is very telling. Attorneys have an ethical obligation not to allow false testimony on the stand when they know it is false. I’m guessing his lawyers told him they couldn’t let him lie in testimony on the stand about things they knew for a fact were lies and he opted to represent himself for that reason. He could still theoretically get charged with perjury for lying about things but that’s a separate crime that would have to be proven to a standard of a beyond a reasonable doubt.

  5. Why would he be his own lawyer in this case?! I know he said why but that’s a big case for just representing yourself..it’s insane!

  6. “They’re actually making my points for me”

    MY DUDE YOU LITERALLY WALKED INTO A WITNESS SAYING THE SUSPECT WAS YOUR EXACT HEIGHT

  7. If you're innocent and not a 100% narcissist, you let educated, experienced professionals ensure your acquittal.

  8. He was there his co defendant said he was there 3 people. U r a fool . U r the same person who was arrested. I am sure u will be guilty. It was a death. They question all parties who were there.
