    Alec Baldwin's Rust trial will begin on Tuesday, July 9th with jury selection. The lawyers have been getting spicy with each other especially since Hannah Gutierrez was not granted use immunity to testify. I'll be providing gavel-to-gavel coverage of this explosive trial.

    Karen Read's case resulted in a mistrial. She will have a status conference hearing on July 22nd at 2 p.m. ET.

    The Young Thug trial is postponed while his attorney is in custody for contempt. If the judge recuses himself, there is a high possibility it will also result in a mistrial.

    A trial date has been set in the Bryan Kohberger case for June 2025. This might be a 3-month trial and I expect tons of litigation from now until then. I will continue to follow up on the change of venue decision that has been pushed to August 29th, 2024.

  • Quick Bits: Mistrial Declared In The Karen Read Trial
    Jul 1 2024

    Karen Read's 10-week-long trial ends in a mistrial. I feel for the victim's family and the community in Canton because they don’t have answers or any sense of finality.

    It’s tough to move on when you’re waiting for another trial.

    There is a status conference scheduled for July 22nd, 2024 at 2pm ET on the case and the Commonwealth has indicated they intend to retry Karen Read.

    Learn about the delicate balance between engaging content and responsible journalism, the importance of legal literacy in media consumption, and how content creators can leverage their platforms to promote understanding, empathy, and justice.
