Take one. Is it that he doesnt want to take one or doesnt have enough on the president . I think that well, it could be both. Like i said before, ive had plenty of clients who have taken plea deals that swore they werent guilty. Apparently, he hasnt come to the amount of money its taking to defend himself or to the pressure to lie or simply maybe hes just saying he doesnt have anything to do with it and hes that does it for me. Im david gura. Going to toughen up and i would ill be back on Saturday Ask Sunday at 2 00 eastern time. Try and bring in as much in the meantime, you can find me information that it is the, on instagram and on twitter at quote, be unquote, witch hunt, and my client is being offered david gura. The news continues right now up because of the polarization with my friend and colleague, of the politics. But thats not really going to fly in a court of law. Yasmin vossoughian. Yasmin . Lets talk about who has david, that is quite a roster accepted a plea deal. Rick gat
viewers, we censor a lot of what is seen at home. these photos of ahmaud arbery laying dead in the street, the crime scene photos were incredibly violent. we heard from the reverend al sharpton talked about this issue, about race in this trial, and he said that this was some of the most racist language he has ever heard in a courtroom. this is a man who has seen a lot. and that s saying a lot. what s interesting about this, jose, the prosecution may have stayed away from race in this trial, but the defense has continued to wade into these race issues. a lot of it has been through attorney kevin gough. he has seemingly gone down this road time and time again, including recently asking for a mistrial based on the black panthers as they made their way around the building. today, it s quiet. we re not seeing the large crowds. small crowds are here to support the family, jose.
outcome of this trial. part of what s important to note when it comes to trial law as opposed to appellate law, is that bias plays a role throughout the system. even though you weren t able to get into some of those statements that the mcmichaels made, like travis mcmichael reportedly calling ahmaud the n word after he shot and killed him. if he had more diversity within the system, you would have seen more of those types of statements being admitted and more of the flavor at the beginning of this trial. the only hesitation i have is the prosecutor knows what jurors are like and therefore she best understands how to present this information. ultimately you re trying most to be persuasive and get a conviction. how are things outside the courtroom? things are quiet today. the biggest action that we had was when the family was escorted in and they re escorted in each day by members of clergy who are there to support the mother. it needs to be said to our
jury of these peers, even though only one of them is african american, will a jury say that these men should not be allowed to do this? i think this goes back to what we were all thinking about during the trayvon martin trial. i think it s one to watch and it s going to be a real moment in american history. yamiche, i kept thinking as i was hearing that 911 call and some of that video, audio that we ve been able to hear in this trial, how different it is that technology exists and that cell phones exist and that we re able to hear and see the whole thing of what s your emergency, there s a black man running. you know, it s this evidence of what you see and what you hear that is so relatively new, think of all of the past injustices that simply didn t exist because we didn t see it and we didn t hear it. that s right. what makes this case different
likely. and he was. to the dismay of many, the gun charge was also tossed out. this one, the evidence seems more clear cut in georgia. but we ll never know. there will be a sense of suspense and fear knowing where that trial takes place, knowing the racial makeup of that jury. a lot of americans will be holding their breath. jonathan lemire and yamiche alcindor, it s a pleasure to see you. farmers have been hit hard by the pandemic and supply chain backlog. we ll meet one farmer who tackled the crisis while helping his community in the progress. you re watching msnbc reports. superpowers from a spider bite? i could use some help showing the world how liberty mutual customizes their car insurance so they only pay for what they need.
