      She’s one of the top attorneys in the entire country.
      The feigned incompetence is a very intentional tactic she is using.
      She’s incredibly manipulative and so smart that she’s fooled literally all of y’all into believing this is her first trial…which was her intention.
      She was Larry Nassar’s attorney too.
      She’s definitely an experienced attorney; if she’s got you all fooled into thinking she’s a newbie, that was absolutely coming across to the jury.
      The airhead, pretending-I-just-graduated-from-Law-School routine she put on throughout this trial is a very intentional act.
      She’s attempting to gain sympathy by pretending to struggle through everything, hoping the jury just ends up feeling bad that she is even having to do a case like this that is so horrific.
      “Poor lady, she’s just having such a hard time.”
      It seems annoying for us to watch, because we’re far enough removed, but I’ll bet the atmosphere in that room was pretty intense, and she’s VERY manipulative.
      She was trying to bet more on gaining sympathy for HERSELF throughout the trial, because she didn’t have a ton of faith people were going to have much, if any, empathy for her client.
      Definitely a move. Risky, and obnoxious, but a move.
      You can hate her, but it honestly was very likely Crumbley’s best chance at beating these charges.
      She did her job.
      Aaand this is also why people have so much hate towards lawyers. Each have their own tactics & interpretations of the law & strategies on how they’re going to represent their clients, but they’re not always easy, often maddening, to watch unfold.

After her turn is over and the prosecution is done she whines no fair, I get to ask another question and the judge allows her! The only people behaving properly is the prosecution. The judge is an absolute train wreck and doesn’t control her courtroom at all. It is like watching a circus side show. I have a completely open mind going in and I am not pro or con any side until all the facts are in. This trial should be a mistrial due to lack of professionalism and protocol by the judge and defense attourney.

    Watching this defense attorney entirely validates my decision not to pursue a law degree and a bar around the time covid hit. I have a different highly esteemed profession and something about my exam proctors and advisors at the law schools reacting to what I already had been doing with my adult life took me by surprise. Made me feel like if all these law professors are jealous of my life I probably shouldn't waste my time and money doing this. Now I totally see why. I know children who can make a better defense than this. As far as the judge I don't think she's helping the defense so much as she's stressing and trying to make sure everything gets fleshed out as she'll be under scrutiny for this for the rest of her career and all these things will make a difference going forward as I'm sure we can all expect. I felt like the Judge for the Darrel Brooks case could have been criticized in the same way because how many judges would really put up with that guy's crap? I think all that had more to do with being thorough and exercising the utmost professionalism and integrity so that when it's over it can just be over.

    Being a defense lawyer is extremely challenging, the prosecution has so much more on their side. I’m sure the judge was being empathetic to the difficulties of this case considering a lot of the case is built of perception. The “facts” in this case were subjective details. Painting an accurate picture to the jury is crucial.

    • @ajwysopal

      Exactly! People watch TV shows and think it's like that. Or think they could do better. Did she do amazing? No. But everyone has to start somewhere. Also she doesn't have a huge team working for or with her. Unlike the state does. Thousands of pages of documents to go through... The pressure of having the trial streamed live... Ect ect...

    It’s disgusting how JC paid for this defense lawyer but her son for a court appointed lawyer. But it’s good that JC & JC got 10 to 15 years - they really could have prevented these murders. Their son pleaded a long time for help. Their house was filthy & they had no problem with Ethan drinking & having liquor bottles in his room.

    Yes. I thought all this information about Jennifer Crumbleys affairs are only used- inappropriately, to villify her. I thought this misjudged, given the issue here was Jennifer Crumbleys neglecting to take responsibility for the gun- securing the gun, specifically. Ethans mental status- beyond the fact that he was an adolescent at the time of the shooting, was misunderstood and mishandled by all the adults concerned with Ethan.

    I want to give this female lawyer the benefit of the doubt and assume she’s probably very nervous. However, she needs to watch a few episodes of “suits” and watch the episodes when they do kangaroo court to practice or prepare for trial. She also might not ever be great in court and could use her law degree to be corporate attorney helping firms go over important documents, because trail attorney might be a stretch for her right now. Her client is going to end up getting the electric chair after she’s done with her defense.

    Y’all are killing me with these comments.😂🤦🏻‍♀️
    She’s one of the top attorneys in the entire country.
    The feigned incompetence is a very intentional tactic she is using.
    She’s incredibly manipulative and so smart that she’s fooled literally all of y’all into believing this is her first trial…which was her intention.
    She was Larry Nassar’s attorney too.
    She’s definitely an experienced attorney; if she’s got you all fooled into thinking she’s a newbie, that was absolutely coming across to the jury.
    The airhead, pretending-I-just-graduated-from-Law-School routine she put on throughout this trial is a very intentional act.
    She’s attempting to gain sympathy by pretending to struggle through everything, hoping the jury just ends up feeling bad that she is even having to do a case like this that is so horrific.
    “Poor lady, she’s just having such a hard time.”
    It seems annoying for us to watch, because we’re far enough removed, but I’ll bet the atmosphere in that room was pretty intense, and she’s VERY manipulative.
    She was trying to bet more on gaining sympathy for HERSELF throughout the trial, because she didn’t have a ton of faith people were going to have much, if any, empathy for her client.
    Definitely a move. Risky, and obnoxious, but a move.
    You can hate her, but it honestly was very likely Crumbley’s best chance at beating these charges.
    She did her job.
    Aaand this is also why people have so much hate towards lawyers. Each have their own tactics & interpretations of the law & strategies on how they’re going to represent their clients, but they’re not always easy, often maddening, to watch unfold.
