How to 'Boil the Frog' in Cross-Examination
Sonia describes the technique of ‘boiling the frog’. This is where an advocate gradually leads a witness through a series of questions, starting with non-contentious ones and progressively moving to more critical issues. This technique aims to get the witness to make small admissions without realising the cumulative impact, ultimately leading to a significant admission or contradiction. This method helps avoid alerting the witness and keeps them from becoming defensive, making it a powerful tool in cross-examination.

  • @Freedom4PalestineEndZioNazism

    This is hilarious! Well done young lady! It's a bit beyond this with some of us, but still... I mean, when some wigged b'stard has ditched all Rule of Law and yor self-repping, falsely accused, wholly set- up self is dragged up that flight of stairs by fatty from Monkey Magic, and you're made to appear from the torture chambers of Scrubs, in the courtrrom of Isleworth where you once WORKED, and the judge was the one who StOPPED your evidence getting into court, all this goes out the window. And most students are too green to be able to deal with that.

      It happens very often in my jurisdiction. Defence counsel "take a chance" vs they may have them cry and profess their innocence, and give their version of what happened, when it's very clear they're guilty of the offense It's maddening!

    In your experience, how often can a defendant waive their right to a speedy trial? How many times have you seen it waived in one case before it goes to trial?

  • @Mikados_Advark12
    @Mikados_Advark12 Před 3 měsíci

    Do t agree with that. Some defendants can give a convincing story - even though guilty. In any case - as a UK prosecutor I relish the closing speech against a defendant who could not even walk the 7 yards to give evidence.

    • @banyakolemulenga7072
      @banyakolemulenga7072 Před 23 dny

      Yeah they will give a convincing story but it’s a lie. In doing so you as the lawyer will be misleading the court in accepting the lie. The question is how do you defend a quilt defendant???

    Edward Marshall Hall was known to vomit from nerves before commencing a trial. For those who don't recognise the name he was one of the leading criminal barristers of the late 19th early 20th century well known for defending what appeared to be undefendable clients.

    That's why you should NEVER make a statement to the police when you are arrested. It is your right to keep silent. Beside that, in Quebec, and maybe in France too, it would be illegal for a judge to wear a religious sign like the indian judge in the video.

    • @yuppittyyippity1498
      @yuppittyyippity1498 Před 2 dny

      A religious sign? Sikhs are forbidden from cutting their hair. The men have long hair that they grow their entire life without cutting, so they wear a turban to neatly hold it together. Would you rather that they walk in with open hair like a Pantene commercial?
