Thanks for the correction. Mine was coming from a tweet of one of the reporters in the courtroom — but yours sounded more like what I thought I heard.

No problem, FRiend. You were correct in the gist of it. Refusing to show his notes like a petulant child didn't exactly portray an image of professionalism.

What a disaster of a witness. We knew Rachel Jeantel was poorly educated. No surprise she bombed. Bao is at least supposed to be educated. It's obvious there is a language barrier. You have to be suspicious of his notes and their accuracy, based on his poor performance and communication.

It's probably considered racist to bring it up. What else is new? It's the entire shaky foundation of the trial in the first place.
