i am not following the trial closely because why would i, but my guess is the defense probably produced a big list of witnesses, then decided not to call most of them at the last possible second.

the prosecution spent a ton of time getting ready for a rebuttal of all those witnesses and preparing their own rebuttal witnesses. now, the state can’t even do a rebuttal because they had to wait to see the defense’s case. instead, the defense didn’t call any of those witnesses. the state isn’t ready and doesn’t even have anything to rebut. judges hate when people pull this poo poo, especially when their is a jury empaneled, as now the state has to totally rework their rebuttal and it’s a huge waste of time and headache for everyone who isn’t on the defense.

everyone knows the guy did it, and the only chance the defense have to keep from Florida from executing their client gonna be in a decades-long appeals process. why even call witnesses? he’s guilty as poo poo, the trial verdict is a foregone conclusion and all the defense is there to do is fight the death sentence after guilt is determined at trial.

the judge is pissed because the defense isn’t pretending the trial is important and she’s afraid of losing the jury.

I read a bit more into it and the Defense wasn't even halfway through their list of witnesses before resting. Basically wasted everybody's time since nobody was expecting the state to produce witnesses at this point. Basically everybody there showed up so the defense could say "we have nothing further your honor :smug: and piss everybody off. Then they try to explain why they did it because they felt "insulted" by the judge, and she cuts them off. Then the following:

"The judge proceeded to ask Cruz if he was satisfied with his defense after a list of names of potential witnesses who would not be called to testify was read into the court record. Among the names was his brother Zachary Cruz.

"Are there any of those people that you feel need to be called [to testify] before you rest?" Scherer asked Cruz.

"I don't know who those people are," Cruz answered. After some clarification, Cruz said, "No, I think we're good."

so lmao, chalk up another group of performative dipshits pissing off judges

very funny how the judge tried to gently caress up the defense’s inevitable ineffective assistance claim on appeal by having Cruz consent on the record
