The State prosecution is having a VERY bad day so far. 😁
(Wasn't he loaned the weapon in WI for his own self-protection?)
The thing that strikes me from my admittedly spotty review of the testimony is that we are in for a shock:
1.Kyles defense is incompetent as it is confident: they're playing their role straight ahead--apparently based on the assumption that they only need to rebut the prosecution's attempts to knock the foundation out from under the defense's self-defense claim.
2.THEY ARE LIKELY TO BE VERY WRONG!!
- Look again at that DA's performance-- casual, unflappable, imperturbable. He's playing to the audience.
- The DA is a curious study in a menacing type of personality found in government :
-- He's vain and fastidious, overly preoccupied with in appearance, almost the cliché' of the single gay male, but a general attribute of the 'red-line' narcissist.
--This preoccupation with external matters indicates that a deep chasm or a gaping wound lies at the heart.
--These people need to prove that they are "the smartest boy in the room." They must win. It doesn't help that Binger is sly and does have actual talent.
--They are ruthless in their ambition and bound for higher glory--in the hopes of filling in that void. Anyone is fair game, a stepping stone and nothing more in their quest.
--Upshot: Binger has a plan and is working an angle. He is a snake.
The defense is underestimating him!
What is Binger fishing for? Testimony for a subsequent indictment?
Watch out for something based on 'he had no business being there in the first place.'
