BARD - CORNELL SEVEN SHOCKER: Defendant Dropped, Jane Doe Pseudonym & Prosecutors SPEAK OUT

Mark.

I just want to pause it really quickly just so we don't get any copyright strikes here.

So and I'll keep playing it.

But

no, you don't have to.

That was exactly.

So that's what he's saying.

There is something that I've talked about before.

There there is a difference between a defense lawyer's ethical role and the ethical role of a prosecutor.

You can't.

And we were talking about it in the context of Cornell.

But now that Tish James is out there, you know, it's being reported now.

I knew this weeks ago.

He's shopping for a prosecutor to come in.

What Matt was saying and what I've been saying in Matt's absence is a prosecutor is not supposed to react to the mob.

Just like there is kind of a symbiotic relationship to defense lawyers.

A defense lawyer is not supposed to shy away from a case because of the mob.

There is a certain point at which your ethical duty is important.

You're not supposed to.

And the whole foundation of democracy in the Republican and the United States is the mob rule.

You're not supposed to let you're not supposed to let the mob influence you on critical decisions.

Obviously, you can public opinion, the conscious of community.

I mean, you can go down all of those rabbit holes and understand that, you know, when I talk about One of the great debates when it has to do with jury nullification, for instance, you know, people will say, well, what is jury nullification? I said, well, that's just a way to kind of kind of demean, if you will, the jury's obligation.

The jury is supposed to be a conscience of the community.

That doesn't mean that they succumb to mob rule, but they are supposed to reflect the conscience of the community.
