Karen Read Hearing Summary - Defense Motion for Expert Expenses Was DENIED Feb 07, 2025

Show notes

Karen Read's motion for expert expenses was denied because the Commonwealth had expressed concerns that the original video footage might not exist. It was revealed that a now retired detective had downloaded selected videos from that day and saved them on a hard drive and possibly a iCloud account.

These videos had not been turned over to the defense before the first trial. The Commonwealth has turned over voluminous new discovery to the defense ahead of the second trial, including new experts, expert reports, and full files.

The retrial is expected to be a completely different case, with a new accident reconstructionist and a new accident reconstruction process.

It Ends In Court. Diddy’s New Indictment. Sarah Boone Appeal Issues? Feb 04, 2025

Show notes

The “It Ends With Us” lawsuits have a court date of March 9th, 2026. The attorneys faced off in Court on February 3rd, 2025, arguing who started the smear campaign and the judge promptly told them to knock it off.

The Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni Federal lawsuits against each other have been consolidated and many issues were addressed. The Joneswork PR vs Baldoni lawsuit was filed on January 27th, 2025, and is a related lawsuit to the consolidated cases.

The NY Times hasn’t been served yet and Lively’s attorneys argued that the case may need to be unconsolidated after just being recently consolidated due to The NY Times being a defendant. Lively intends to file a Protective Order on Discovery which is normal for high profile cases.

Diddy received a Superseding Indictment which added additional victims to the racketeering conspiracy charges.

Shortly after Karen Read’s Hearing on January 31st, 2025, Judge Cannone made a ruling not to do a Daubert Hearing on the defense digital forensics expert, Mr. Green. She had also narrowed a prior ruling regarding journalist Gretchen Voss’ notes allowing most of it to remain private.

Sarah Boone wrote a letter to the courts because she said that a Notice to Appeal was not filed on her case. The Court wrote back to her informing who her Appellate Attorney is. According to the Sarah Boone’s Online Docket, it says that the Notice of Appeal was filed on December 18th, 2024 but received by the Clerk on January 31st, 2025. It seems like a clerical error and it should not affect the progress of her case.

Karen Read Hearing Summary - Motions, Discovery, and Defense Expert Fees Feb 01, 2025

Show notes

On January 31st, 2025, the Karen Read case continues with a hearing focused on motions and discovery. The defense argues over expert witness fees due to unavailable evidence, while the prosecution provides updates on new experts and witness interviews. The judge also indicated that a Daubert hearing regarding the defense's expert, Mr. Green, was unlikely and that they would issue an order by Monday.

The defense requested more time to file a motion to dismiss, while the prosecution stated that they were still providing discovery to the defense. There's still upcoming motions in limine and motions to suppress, and the need for all discovery to be turned over ahead of the re-trial.

Kouri Richins Motions to Suppress The "Walk The Dog Letter" And Other Evidence Jan 30, 2025

Show notes

Kouri Richins, accused of killing her husband with a poisoned Moscow Mule, is back in court on January 23rd, 2025. The defense has filed motions to suppress key evidence, including electronic data, statements made by Kouri, and the infamous "Walk The Dog Letter." The defense argues that this letter is inadmissible because it was obtained illegally. The judge has not yet ruled on the motions to suppress. The trial is set to begin in at the end of April.

Surprisingly, Prosecutor Attorney Bloodworth, said that every Law Nerd on the internet calls Docket 214, the "Walk The Dog Letter." Indeed we do.

Karen Read Objects to Exclude Her Digital Forensics Expert That Evaluated Jen McCabe's Phone! Jan 29, 2025

Show notes

The prosecution has asked for a hearing to determine whether or not Mr. Green, Karen Read's digital forensic expert, can testify. The defense argued that all forensic experts use the same methodology—they take the digital extraction, run it through different tools, and interpret the information. The defense also argued that the prosecution's efforts to prevent the expert from testifying are "dystopian" and "Orwellian." The defense asked the court to deny the motion and not have a Daubert Hearing.

The prosecution's police expert, Trooper Guarino, ran Jen McCabe's phone through two different analyzer programs and one program indicated that the Google search was there, and that was not turned over to the defense in the initial report.

It'll be interesting to see what happens Friday's hearing and we'll be paying attention to how many times Mr. Alessi says "Orwellian" and if the court brings up the ACCRA experts and the discovery issue.

Blake Lively Gag Order? Karen Read - More New Evidence? Keefe D goes to trial. Jan 27, 2025

Show notes

In the ‘It Ends With Us’ Lawsuit Saga, the attorneys are accusing each other of making statements that could prejudice a future jury, and are a breadth away from asking for sanctions.

In the Karen Reed case, the defense filed a new motion regarding the waste of their experts' time and shared some new information about what the prosecution hasn’t turned over.

Keefe D's Las Vegas prosecution for the murder of Tupac Shakur is moving forward despite his argument that a past immunity offer protects him from prosecution. The court indicated in its ruling that there is no proof of an immunity agreement; we will see if it gets appealed.

Kouri Richins was back in court arguing her pre-trial evidence motions similar to Bryan Kohberger.

Finally, Bryan Kohberger was in court for two days, covering multiple hearings, and the judge will be ruling on those in the near future.

Bryan Kohberger Hearing Summary - Evidence & DNA Suppression Jan 25, 2025

Show notes

The Bryan Kohberger case held hearings on January 23rd and 24th, 2025. The first part of the hearing was sealed, and the rest were public. The defense argued motions to suppress evidence, including what was gathered from Kohberger's apartment, Amazon account, Apple accounts, cell phone data, and vehicle. The defense also requested a Franks Hearing to determine if there were misstatements or omissions in the affidavits that led to the search warrants.

The court indicated that it was not persuaded that the Investigative Genetic Genealogy (IGG) DNA evidence would be suppressed and questioned Kohberger's right to privacy in DNA databases that he had not submitted his DNA to. The court also questioned whether DNA on a knife sheath that tracked back to the defendant was enough for a judge or magistrate to find probable cause for search warrant affidavits.

The court warned the state that its expert disclosure work was not done and needed to be supplemented. The judge has been thoughtful in their rulings and has taken charge of the trial, toning down the courtroom theatrics.

TikTok ‘Ban’ held Constitutional. Justin Baldoni sues Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds. Jan 20, 2025

Show notes

On Friday, January 17th, 2025, the US Supreme Court upheld as constitutional the law that would effectively ban TikTok if it doesn’t divest from Byte Dance, who operates the app before January 19th. That leads to the app ‘going dark’ on Saturday, January 18th, due to the law, and then surprising users by reinstating some service on January 19th. The Bill allows for a one-time 90-day extension to the Bill's implementation with some very specific carve outs. Let’s take a look at what those are.

On Thursday, January 16th, the latest in the saga of litigation stemming from the set of ‘It Ends With Us’ was filed in Federal Court in New York. This suit, which attorney Bryan Freedman had been stating would be filed, sues Blake Lively, her husband Ryan Reynolds, and their PR representative Leslie Sloan and Sloan’s company.

The suit alleges essentially the opposite of Lively’s previously filed suit, that it was Lively who contrived a media smear campaign against Baldoni and her complaints of harassment on set was fabricated to use as leverage to ‘take over’ the movie and wrest control from Baldoni as director and Wayfarer as the studio.

Both Lively’s suit and Baldoni’s suit now have the same Southern District of New York Judge, and the first date is set in the Baldoni suit. Lively and Reynolds waived service, so their answers are due on March 2nd, 2025.

Wendy Williams v Wells Fargo: Frozen Bank Accounts, Financial Guardianship & Court Sealed EVERYTHING! Jan 19, 2025

Show notes

In February 2022, I went over these documents with the Law Nerds before the Court sealed all of the filings and any future activity. Wells Fargo froze Wendy Williams’ accounts and was seeking a guardianship over her finances. Williams filed an emergency petition for a preliminary injunction and temporary restraining order to regain access to her accounts.

Wells Fargo claimed it froze Williams’ accounts due to concerns about undue influence and financial exploitation, citing advisement from Williams’ former financial advisor and other unnamed third parties. The court ordered Wells Fargo to show cause why an order should not be entered to unfreeze Williams’ accounts. Wells Fargo filed a guardianship petition and requested that the records be sealed to protect Williams’ privacy. The court granted Wells Fargo’s request to seal the records.

Diddy's Lawyers Face Backlash Over Court Filing | Protective Order in Jeopardy? Jan 17, 2025

Show notes

Diddy's lawyers filed a document that was later stricken from the docket and resubmitted in a more redacted version due to it containing information that characterized things watched on videos that are subject to a protective order. The government and the victim were displeased with the original filing. The defense argues that they complied with the court's order by filing a more redacted version but believe it's unfair and will result in an unfairly polluted jury pool. They also argue that their characterization of the evidence was appropriate and should not be sealed.

The defense's argument that the protective order is too broad is disagreed with, as the protective order is already in place and they should wait for it to change before filing things not under seal. A hearing will likely be held in February to determine if the protective order will be modified, including whether the defense will have digital and physical access to the videos in question. The trial is still expected to be in May, but dealing with digital experts is not a swift process, so it may be delayed.
