So every one of these defenses collapsed shortly after they were stated by the defense. And that leads to this question of why, why isn’t he just pleading guilty? This is an open and shut case,” Turley added.

So the defense is constantly putting up arguments that are getting directly refuted. Opposite of what they claim. Why aren't these lawyers being sanctioned for putting up nonstop obviously incorrect arguments?

Seems like a good question.

Not precisely the same thing, but there is a cliche about lawyers — “Never ask a question to which you do not already know the answer.” Well, if a defense attorney bases their defense on something like “He didn’t personally fill out that form” and then gets refuted by someone who says “I saw him fill out that form”. And if that happens over and over then it sure seems like the defense is just throwing out crap and hoping something sticks. I would think that the legal infrastructure would stop that and say “We don’t engage in such amateur tactics here”.
