That’s the real point here. I don’t care how strong or weak the rape case is, when a judge starts controlling the vocabulary of the witnesses it is pretty evident that he is trying to control the outcome of the case. It’s like banning the words, “kill,” “murder,” “weapon” at a murder trial. It just doesn’t make sense. That is not a judge’s prerogative. Does he think the jury is incapable of detecting bs?

*I* think juries are incapable of detecting BS. That in indictment was returned to Duke Lacrosse case is ample evidence of that.
