My assessment:
When Meg came on the stand, the most important thing she needed to do was appeal to the emotions of the jury as a witness.
According to Milagro (pro Tory) and Dennis Byron (pro Meg) who was AK's stream, Meg was very animated and "delivered when it mattered" after lunch.
Her line about how she would've rather died than deal with what happened after the night was apparently powerful to the jury.
On paper, it looked bad for her because of the contradictions and inconsistencies but that's why having video would've been more helpful because we can assess the mood of the courtroom.
Her performance in the second half was pretty convincing and Tory's defense did not go too hard during the cross examination.
The prosecution did what they needed to do in day 2 but all that was erased in day 3 because of Kelsey.
Fair assessment. I think when the jury goes over the notes from the trial before making the decision the inconsistencies will be discussed behind closed doors.
You still ain't answered if you American
yes
who asked that
and what does that have do with anything
How do you get gun shot residue on your hands….
Depending on the type of fire arm and ammunition used, it will typically travel no farther than 3–5 feet (0.9–1.5 meters) from the muzzle of the gun
I’m running this ds2 and Future was slurping and smacking on that s*** all in the mic for intro
i see why a generation of rappers wanna do d**** cus of this nigga. he made the s*** sound so delicious
What if tory and Kelsey was wrestling over the glizzy
Assuming the firearm was accidentally discharged during a struggle, then Meg is a liar for saying she witnessed Tory alone shoot her in the feet with Kelsey not in sight.
Y'all missing the point of the tweet
If Katy Perry or somebody else got shot every media outlet would be reporting on it non-stop
But because it's Meg it kinda gets regulated to hip hop blogs because people think a black woman getting shot is less outrageous
Violence is way too normalized in our culture
This s*** been going on for 2 years tho
It's not like it JUST happened.
And when it DID happen
That's all that was talked about
Judge ruled defense can call LAPD Det. Ryan Stoger to ask why he didn’t pursue Kelsey as possible shooter, but they CAN’T bring in Stogner's recent arrest on suspicion of domestic violence
Tory’s atty tried to argue the DV case (which DA declined to file) “goes to credibility"
by "role" you mean a 2minute cameo? You're acting as if she had a major role lol, so disingenous.
I don't even think people really care about Childish Gambino and that man has done 100x more than Meg. Come on lol. The mainstream has their darlings and Megan isn't one.
You're prob misunderstanding what I mean here, I pretty much only think there's like 30 celebrities in the US that would dominate media coverage for a while if shot, the rest don't matter. Writing articles about Elon Musk will gen more clicks than an article about this Meg case, that's just how it be
I never said she had a major role, but the MCU isn’t handing out cameo roles to just any celebrity playing themselves.
Childish Gambino is definitely cared about a lot, especially since he’s pivoted more into the film/TV industry.
And sure, those 30 are all top of the top A listers. My point is that Meg is a B lister at worst, not a “Z lister”.
ASAP Rocky and Brittany Griner are both B list (at best) celebrities as well and they both had massive media coverage for their imprisonments
im not reading this thread
someone tell me whos winning
Tory's lawyer, George Mgdesyan, said while he was "initially told (Stogner) was fired," turns out he's on administrative leave instead
Judge Herriford said asking about the off-duty incident behind Stogner's arrest would be "far more prejudicial than probative"

Tory's defense
(my assessment)
Assuming the firearm was accidentally discharged during a struggle, then Meg is a liar for saying she witnessed Tory alone shoot her in the feet with Kelsey not in sight.
The gun was shot 4-5 times that doesn’t sound like no accident.
man what
13 left

Yea maybe but I think there's an insane gap between A list & B list if Meg/Brittany are considered B list. U right I was dumb for saying Meg Z but I seriously think people like ariana grande/beyonce/selena gomez have 1000x more fans than her

Day 4 score is 29-27 in Tory favor
Ta: "You don't have immunity to perjure yourself on the stand?"
Kelsey: "Yes, ma'am."
Ta then asked her if Megan was shot that night.
"Again, her team told me she stepped on glass," Kelsey testified.
man what
Just throw the whole case away at this point
The gun was shot 4-5 times that doesn’t sound like no accident.
A gun firing multiple times during a struggle over it isn’t impossible.
Either way, Kelsey and Meg have two different recollections of what happened.
man what
How did they know even

Yeah because those three are all A listers
But Meg is still on a level where it’s weird that this isn’t getting major coverage
Brittany Griner is probably closer to a C lister and her situation was national news until she was freed
