It would be the aftermath I would be worried about as a juror.
What are the chances that Alex or another dipshit starts calling the jury plants by the pedo Clinton gay frog soros pizza hut cabal?
And outright doxes them?

Is there a way for the court to find Daria in contempt based upon the fact that she’s obviously lying and loving around while under oath?

This is an absolute clusterfuck of a trial, man alive.

So wait, what's defence's reasoning for playing a long-rear end clip? Was it just to show that he's not just screeching about how it was all fake?

Comfy and cozy.
It's a combination of deliberately wasting time, placating Jone's ego by making him look (in his own eyes) like a good guy regardless of court procedure, and to shower the jury in an avalance of banal nonsense to try and drown out Bankston's evidence from yesterday.

The legal version of a gish gallop, in other words.

If y'all want another thing to be mad about, here's some fun texas law thanks to Greg Abbott pulling up the ladder as soon as he got elected.

Texas law has a cap on punitive damages. It's 2x economic damages plus between $200-$750k for non-economic damages. All of the damages in this case are expressly defined by statute as non-economic damages. The punitive damages in this case will be capped by the judge after the jury verdict at $750k.

The jury will probably award like $500m in punitive damages, but because of TORT REFORM, Jones will have to pay less than he gets in random bitcoin donations for punishment.

what about the case he has in CT?

also, do you know how issue preclusion interacts with the fact that like he got defaulted in Texas? are issues from that default going to carry over and not be contestable in CT? I know it's different families so I guess he won't be automatically liable unless he actually literally defaulted there also

He received the same kind of default in CT for similar reasons. They have a trial on damages in November. This trial has no impact on that except that technically they would have an earlier judgment to collect upon. I do not know if CT has a punitive damages cap.

You will be the effigy I burn, infused with all the traits that make them the detestable little goblins they are.

I kinda get why they're playing this, too slow that Jones was concerned for the kids, but the way he's speaking about Prozac heads and the likes does not cast him in a good light. Guess he wasn't at the "the shooter was a trans queer monster" thing yet.

Also, am I watching this after work again for the second day in a row? Yes, yes I am. :negative:

This is the most bizarre strategy. Just play rambling Jones clips to try and purge the jurors memory banks.And it’s not like these clips are particularly exonerating either.

Bill was on the podcast talking about how he was asked to join the team because he used to watch InfoWars as a joke. After watching hours of video, he needed a break because he started to wonder if maybe Jones was right.

Could be that.

Reynal (I think that's Jones's lawyer) tried to address the court at the start and she told him he couldn't. Then she basically excused it as tempers running high, but then said if it happens again she was not going to be happy about it
