Nobody is indicating or suggesting that the language indicated "premeditation"....and this is not a 1st degree premeditated case, not a capital case.
We all understand people don't normally call others those kinds of names without some kind of emotion involved. Everyday common sense.
If you believe that, you have lived a very sheltered life.
BDLR IS using the language to suggest premeditation and that George was angry when he was observing the suspect. To me, and I suspect to most people, his comments suggest frustration with a scenario where criminals "always get away", not anger at the individual. This exact issue was testified to by the prosecution's witnesses.
George needed much bigger suits, and his living expenses are already $12,000 a month, not much left from the fund. You'd think that with 200 witnesses possible, $2,500 each would be pretty nice ')
What a fantastic witness this guy is. Reminds me of an old buddy of mine.
O'mara's rates should be much higher than $400/hr after this case
BDLR angry that O'Mara is using a leading question, "He's stealing my trial technique, your Honor!"
In this phase, Defense is not supposed to be asking leading questions. They got to do that in the Prosecution phase. Now, Defense gets to ask the leading questions. FF explained this last week...See FF comments below.

If is AGAINST the rules of procedure for the person conducting direct examination to ask leading questions. Just as BLDR could NOT ask leading questions of his own witnesses during direct examination.
If you have any proof to the contrary, like some link or something, that says that attorneys doing direct examination are allowed to ask leading questions, please enlighten us.
Great job ... call a combat medic. He's heard screams of terror and pain.
