Every one of you is a potential juror. So let me just say
1) cops lie. All the time. They lie to defendants, they lie to jurors. They get training on how to testify. And they get training on how to cover for their partners. And they get training on how to trick you to confess or incriminate yourself. All with a smile on their face. Cops lie. They are liars
2) every person is presumed innocent. That means of a person is accused and never takes the stand to explain why they are there, still innocent. It’s the governments job to prove guilt. If they do a shit job or their cops are corrupt or the case is weak or the evidence is trash, you MUST acquit. Not a suggestion. It’s a requirement. Even if your “gut” says the defendant did something. Fuck your gut. The question is did the government do their job beyond a reasonable doubt to show if this person is guilty? That’s the only question
3) Cops lie. They are liars. And prosecutors are cops with law degrees. They work together to get convictions. That’s their job. Defense attorneys advocate and defend you and your rights, prosecutors prosecute. It’s in the name.
4) if you get arrested, do not speak to the cops. Say you want an attorney. What did i just say? Cops lie! They will tell you if you’re just honest you’ll go home….it’s a lie. Even if you’re trying to say you’re innocent, shut your sweet mouth. They might be talking to you about one incident while also thinking of other crimes to charge you with. So they could be like “you did it, you were on Flatbush ave at 8pm and you robbed that lady” and you could say “no I was on Ditmas at 7:30 I didn’t touch her” and then they arrest you for a crime that happened on Ditmas because you fit the description and just admitted you were in the area. Don’t talk to cops.
