I watched a jury trial with this city attorney in traffic court in Trophy Club. What a Kangaroo court! The appointed judge was just a tool for the city attorney to extort as much money from good people as possible. This attorney and the judge did not follow proper court room procedure. The city attorney decided what evidence the plaintiff could enter, they city attorney answered questions meant for the officer on the stand, the city attorney interrupted the defendants opening and closing statements. He also told the jury they had to follow the written law and not their conscience, right after the defendant closed with vote your conscience.
We should remember that slavery was once a law too, until Godly people outlawed it in good conscience.
"It is not only his [the juror's] right, but his duty . . . to find the verdict according to his own best understanding, judgment, and conscience, though in direct opposition to the direction of the court." John Adams
I witnessed a mockery of the justice system, I’ve never seen such corruption. When a complaint was filed against the judge, he “retired”. This is why they don't want you to record in court. They know they are doing evil and trying to hide it from the public.
