Shelby County, Kentucky.
My first Jury Trial I've ever done -- my Trial by Fire. To this day it makes me cringe how nervous and loud I was.. But, hey, we all have to start somewhere!
DIRECT EXAMINATION: 0:00
CROSS EXAMINATION: 38:46
My client got his truck caught in a fence. Once he freed himself the officers were already on scene because some coon hunters (yes, we have those in Kentucky) who happened by, saw him stuck and called 911.
My client was arrested and charged with DUI. We had to go to trial because he was a CDL license holder and could not risk losing his CDL privileges for a year.
I CAN BE YOUR LAWYER, TOO.
Call 502-931-6788 or schedule an appointment with me at http:/www.meetme.so/larryforman
Judge: Honorable J.R. Robards, Shelby County District Court Division B
Defense attorney: Larry Forman, a.k.a. the DUI Guy
Prosecutor: John Robinson
Arresting Officer: Sergeant Eric Hettinger, Shelby County Sheriff's Office
The only thing the field sobriety test does is convict you. Never take it. Never take any test. You stand a better chance in court with them having to prove you were drunk without any evidence.
Texas they suspend liscence if u refuse...lawyers are 5K and more
71donkrider yes they take license but giving evidence against yourself will not help case. They are not looking to free you but to hang you up.
So can testify against yourself on side of road or take loss of license well you wait for trial.
@@beautie5138 DAM
It is a myth that the only purpose of the tests is to convict.
I was pulled over for DUI one time, admitted to drinking, and given field sobriety tests. I passed them and was let go.
Manny Jacquiao you were lucky, or the cop was very well trained.
The Judge doesn't want you to ask his buddy any difficult questions.
I've been binge watching the videos on this channel since last night. I'm convinced that Larry was put on this Earth to make fools of crooked cops 😂😂😂
Same here, just recently found it but I love this channel now.
I hope, Now if he could get some convicted of their many crimes
Yep been binge watching today. I was supposed to be doing other stuff but ah well there is always tomorrow.
I have as well lol I dont know how I got here but I'm happy I've came across his channel
Amen Nicole
That old Sgt thought it was going to be a cake walk with this young DUI attorney! Lol! I'm fascinated with how great of an attorney this DUI guy is! I'm binge watching.
That Sgt attitude is disgusting he is showing disrespect to the court and if that's his attitude in court I can only imagine what his attitude is in public he's unsuitable for the job as a police officer
@@joanferris3539 he is too set in the "old ways" of policing and is smug
I love how the demeanor of an officer completely changes once Mr. Forman begins asking questions. I mean, they act like they are the most confident, polite and by-the-book officer on the force during direct examination. And after about 3 questions from Mr. Forman, they begin to come off as confrontational, argumentative and lacking in training. That's a good freaking lawyer.
The fact the judge did not tell the cop to sit like a Professional ticks me off.
He looks like he's a bung hole disorganized clown like he's doing every one a favor just being there .what a joke
If you people live anywhere close to shelby county Kentucky and need a lawyer and dont hire this guy it's because you haven't done no research, this guy is unbelievable. I am not even into courts/law but I have learned alot and I appreciate these videos. What a attorney .
Heck yes, I live in a different part of the state and I'd still try to hire him! Hopefully, I won't need his services, but, s**t happens, ya know.
Thank god there's people like this man still out there fighting for our rights
If I ever was in a situation like this I would want this lawyer for sure I think he’s fantastic
You'd think the sheriff would have alittle bit more respect in the court room, to sit up straight. For your first, I think u did a great job
counselor!!!
He's too busy practicing his smug, bored look.
He's a disgrace to the badge .buger eating moron.
Larry Forman was Built to be a Solid Lawyer.God Bless DUI Guy !
Best DUI attorney in the USA. I've watched about a dozen of these videos, he is amazing!
@50:07 “you need support”, “no I don’t,” “yes you do,” “naw, no I don’t need support.” Hahaha and this was your first jury trial! Damn this young buck has some balls!
I’ve seen a lot of videos like this that these officers have little or no training and the odds are stacked against you , even if you are sober. What’s even worse is even if you are innocent it costs a hell of a lot of money and time to fight this in court. They make you pay one way or another for the officers mistakes.
39:06 - The Sgt's reaction when you pushed the stand up towards hime before questioning was priceless. He knew he was in for some difficult testifying.
Dude you rock!, . Constantly building doubt in the Jury's mind as to the competence and accuracy of the Officers administration of the tests and his job in general. He sits there arms crossed and the prosecuting attorney keeps looking down. Pressure pressure pressure is your game and you execute it with admirable precision and Gut.
This guy is a legend, we need you to protect us from the police brutality
Oh man! THIS IS PURE GOLD!
The way the cop's training, competence, practices and integrity were totally shredded during the cross-examination was a Masterclass!
Is it just me or did that officer inadvertently testify that he performed a field sobriety test on a hill?
Naw I think you misinterpreted. He said he parked on a hill but the camera didn’t see the test because they were down at the intersection where is was flat.
Oh my lord. Massive mad props to this defense counsel. Asking the officer if he knows if the machine is under warranty. When the machine was maintenanced the month of before or after the arrest. Wow. Wow. That is a solid defense point to argue.
they are things he should know as a certified operator of that machine
I Love watching the officer's reaction on the stand when they realize that you aren't just going through the motions. Great work.
@tim miller that's why when they get stumped and go stupid, their favorite one word saying is... OKAY. 😡
tim miller that’s a very interesting point you’ve made... will explore that more.. :-)
This was your first jury trial and you were already a fucking BEAST!!!
I like your style councelor...backed'em right into a corner....sounds like a false arrest case to me
this is the sort of "officer" who arrests people for looking at him in the eye. Ignorant and self-important
It’s interesting how his lack of training in field procedure gets him so beat up in court. I must admit I like watching it.
I could watch this all day. Good job with your questioning, DUI Guy.
"Would you expect a person who has been in an accident to be shook up, nervous perhaps?" "Possibly, but he denied any injuries from the accident." "THAT'S NOT WHAT I ASKED, OFFICER."
Mr. Forman, I know you didn't say that last statement but it would have been awesome. If I'm ever in Kentucky and need an attorney you would be the only one I'd want. Keep up the good work, sir!
I love these videos. Forman is hilarious at times. He wins because he is extremely strategic!!!
And he calls out these cops lies, also ruins there creditability
Are you aware you just failed the test and your sober. That pos prosecutor was pissed.
The bit that got me was when the prosecutor was determined to not let you ask the officer to demonstrate a sample of the test of what he actually said he did on the night in question. If you cannot get up in court and do a short version of it whilst showing no clues, what hope does anyone have? Prosecutor really didn't like you pointing out the two clues the officer showed because it undermines the entire test.
Once Grandpa Jones sat back down he was resting his chin on his arm, then he crossed his arms in the most defensive position. I felt embarrassed for him.
never thought i would ever find myself watching hours and hours of you in court, but damn im learning a lot :D
Because you always need a Taser on your belt to testify in court!
This is one arrogant leo. Can't follow directions and does not care who's life he destroys.
I've found my new CZcams pleasure. Always love to watch intellectuals debate facts. It's like watching 2 chess masters at the park.
This Sgt is annoyed when the law is turned against him but has no issue violating peoples rights
After subscribing to the channel I started researching body language and I love the defensive, arms crossed position the Sergeant takes when being asked if he was aware he was supposed to document what the defendant specifically did when he "failed" the Field Sobriety Test. NEVER take a field Sobriety Test! If you are sober or had one drink with a meal, take a blood or urine test, and get one done at your own expense! This "game" I rigged AGAINST you. If you are sober, you can still FAIL!
Their will be books written about you someday. Your the man!!!!
The DUI guy ALWAYS Understands👏🏾 the 👏🏾assignment👏🏾
Could this cop get any more comfortable? Should have asked for a blow up mattress.
lol or a bean bag.
And a blow up doll. :-))
He’s been in court a lot. Common in veteran cops.
Let them be relaxed. And drop their guard.
I was waiting for him to pick his nose any minute...
This Deputy prewed the scrooch. So many mistakes, from a 23yr Veteran officer. This is why you have to have Formal Training from NHTSA certified trainers.
I am amazed by the lack of desire by the judge and prosecution for the truth to be established. They want to stop the truth from being told.
The cop is sitting there acting like he knows his answers aren't really gonna sound very professional, since he's just barely qualified to do a DUI stop. He's slumped in his chair, and looks and sounds irritated to even be there.
That's the problem. He's Not qualified to do the stops. There's a reason you Want that NHTSA certification. The reason the lawyer was able to cut him to ribbons was that he was never certified, so makes simple mistakes.
And then after he had to do his demonstrations, he is sitting up and not slouched. Not so confident anymore.
Kathleen Lock because he knows he got caught arresting a person he shouldn’t. Dirty arrogant POS
Notice how the Cop's posture changes from more relaxed to defensive as time goes on and his credibility slowly disappears.
The judge was trying his best to pull the police officer out of the mud once he saw the defense attorney was slowly breaking him down
Even the judge is crooked
I’m calling you if I ever get a DUI again! not likely to happen but at least I know I will have a lawyer who cares!
I was surprised he didn’t say ‘100’ when asked by the prosecution how many wrecks he had worked. Haha Bless his heart.
I love when the cops lose.
I bet the deputy had to go home and drink a couple cold ones himself after this slaying
@1:01:15 DUY GUY "Are you aware that you exhibited 2 clues while you were performing the test just a minute ago?" LMAO followed by an objection by the prosecution, my favorite part in this trial hahaha great job. He did F up too you can see it in the video X D
Dang Foreman, you just got in there and politely bully these egos, its fun to watch.
Back then it was just plain old good ole boys and Brother-in-Law hiring.
You did good for your first trial, A+ sir.
Might be your first trial but man you did a great job
Well played. By introducing the study to the witness, and then making him say that he wasn't aware of it, that further discredited the witness. Either way, either affirmative or negative response furthered Mr. Forrman's goal to discredit. Fantastic job sir.
Thank God for lawyers!!! Think about this fellow citizens, when you go to court it's 3 against 1. The 1 is you, the 3 are the judge, prosecutor and the police. If I'm ever charged with a crime I didn't commit, I would be so very grateful for legal representation. I have the highest respect for lawyers, I really do. And one more thing, never ever talk to the police.
That thumbnail though 😂😂😂 (Larry, you wrong for that) LMAO 😂😂 I thought that was a meme!!!!!!!! 👏👏👏
Another smug cop being proven incapable of doing his job and he's a Sgt !!!!
Officer " he stepped off of the imaginary line"
Hey Mr Foreman,
Thank you for the wonderful suggestion in you live stream today, I went and watched the movie trial of the Chicago 7!
What a great movie!
I'm not a minute in and I can tell he's unprofessional.
The way you express yourself is inspiring. Watching you use aggressive tonality and high energy expression through your demeanor simply inspires and captivates. Im currently going thru a 2nd Dui charge, It's being set for jury trial in march. My attorney to me seems very unzealous. He keeps me in the dark, very hard to get ahold of, and i live out of county and the drive is nearly 2 hours to his office. Well, at the last court date he said "get in contact with me in january". I have no idea what hes planning or if hes even planning anything towards my case. So any continuances, no offer from the state, i just feel lef tin the dark, ye thes already fully paid off. I don't have the money to hire a new attorney, and i don't know how to go about that in a case to where i would like to somehow transfer the money i paid this attorney to a new one. I don't know if its too late to even attempt it.
Don't feel left in the dark. Many attorneys do this to not get clients' expectations up. Also they do this to prevent clients from getting chatty with someone they don't realize is associated with the prosecution prematurely revealing a major flaw that could prove a client is innocent or get them off the hook because something was done improperly.
I'm struggling to see how this is even inside a court room, no slurred speech, no compromised motor skills, no erratic behavior, etc, this is really looking like false arrest, and this cop is about as incompetent as he could possibly be, and he made Sargent?
The cop seems to be stuck on that hundred number....
He is consistent, I'll grant him that much. "I need to pull a number out of my ass that I can easily remember, I'll go with the average amount of times in a week that I turn a blind eye to witnessing my fellow officers violating rights/breaking the law in general."
That's as high as he can count.
Don't judge!
playstationfan36 what about us that are not drunk.
playstationfan36
Your a piece of fucking garbage, sorry to tell you that cops arrest innocent people!!!!
@KyDUIGuy what was the juries verdict ? Do you have that on video somewhere ?
@The DUI Guy was this in Shelby County Tn?
@@dirtysouth865 ky
I would love to see a reputable attorney do a video addressing the difference between reality and the beliefs of sovereign citizens.
The next two topics I will be discussing in my live streams are going to be the two hottest topics sought-after. Jury nullification and Sovereign citizen
There are a lot of interesting parallels between the sovereign citizens and the first amendment auditors. I don't always agree with the tactics of the first amendment auditors, but I do think their actions have led to many LEO's improved education regarding civil rights.
@@Malungeon18436571 CZcams is teaching me a lot about this whole concept of the 'government by the citizenry' !
I would never have known this was your first jury trial. Impressive.
@@TheDUIGuyPlus Gen. Pop (citizens) can be summoned, chosen, to follow instruction, understand some law, exhibit good judgement, and determine the fate of another, but God forbid that same concept be applied to a state or federal government structure. 'We don't know how government works' what a crock of sh.. Can't use mob rule, got a bad rap. Maybe organized citizens rule. GenPop Party-GPP
I love this guy!
Man you crushed him . I did notice that when you had him flustered he would blink his eyes erratically. And when he had to do the heal to toe and tried to tell him what he did wrong and judge said you couldn't then finished up and whent back to the podium and said it again lol it was a good move to make sure that the jury looks at that. Great job on your first one . You did your homework for sure.
I get the feeling that this particular judge would always rule to the benefit of the prosecutor or police. It is absolutely disgusting the way the judge treated the demonstration. The prosecutor knows whenever he objects it will be upheld. It is especially grievous in view of the fact that the officer has never received formal training.
12:13 Hebron Lane and Anderson road.... my AR lower is made by Anderson Manufacturing and that is located in Hebron Kentucky.
That cross was straight cold, dawg.
Judge: Mr. Forman, do you have any questions?
Mr. Forman: You bet your ass I do!
This was your first jury? Wow! that was great! I felt bad for the officer for a second....but that was it.lol
After watching a few of these videos I find it disgusting the lack of honesty and trustworthiness in the Leo agencies.
You were brilliant!! I saw the clues in the office too !!!
I love living in a state where you can just say no thank you when they ask you to do a field sobriety test lol
I know that cop right after this Trial he got promoted School crossing guard
I think he Retired at the Chiefs request
Smug LEO with the "good 'ole boy" mentality. This guy isn't up to training standards at all. You're a fast "study" for sure!
@Barrier Boy - That works too!
Get em coach🤣🤣🤣 I need to send this man a beer.
Something I’ve noticed in this video is how the cop answered the prosecutor’s questions, compared to answering the defense, also pay attention to his body language when your asking questions, just like he doesn’t even care, or wants to be there!
Much respect ✊ 🇺🇸
Great start !!
Its all about details . i noticed that @ the bench conference, and during the rest of the trial.
Well done again.
What was the outcome of the trial ??
Not as good as I would have liked.
Of course he objected when he brought up that the officer gave 2 clues of intoxication. Prosecutor didn't want the jury to know how ridiculous and inaccurate they actually are.
DUI guy you are brutal brother..... I love it
Larry is a superstar weather he knows it or not. But I don't think I have ever seen a better "mojo" that what Larry brings all in all
7:10 he thinks BAC stands for BREATH Alcohol content
Lmao
Wow...good job bud!
Way to show the world you are ignorant as hell and have no idea what you are talking about.
You're laughing at the cop, thinking you caught him on something you just *KNEW* was wrong. You got all excited and couldn't wait to be the first one to call him out on it.
You were either too lazy to ACTUALLY listen...or to ignorant to comprehend what he said.
You time stamped it and still managed to get what he said wrong.
What he ACTUALLY said was *breath alcohol concentration.* BrAC.
He was talking about being certified as a BASIC BREATH TEST OPERATOR. A certification that allows an officer to use the Intoxilyzor.
Do yourself a favor next time. At least try to get a basic understanding of how a breathalyzer ACTUALLY works before being an asshat and trying to bust a cops balls about it.
Instead of pretending like you know what you're talking about.
Then again, maybe you like looking like an idiot.
Here's a clue....that would have taken you 30 seconds to find.
Well...maybe not 30 seconds for you...
A breathalyzer measurement of 0.10 mg/L of *breath alcohol* converts to 0.0001×2100 g/10dL, or 0.21 g/dL of blood alcohol (the units of the BAC in the United States, this is equivalent to 2.1 permille).
In most of the United States it is ILLEGAL to drive a vehicle with a *breath alcohol concentration* (BrAC) of 0.08% or higher.
and some advice....
*Don't be your own attorney.*
But hey! Good job on calling out that dumb cop...wow...nice catch...you showed him!
At least he understood what compramised means
Awesome cross examination Sir 🔥🔥🔥👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
DUI guy is Johnny Cochran reincarnated. Cop had only 17% cause. No formal training.. AND had to perform his own field sobriety test poorly...lol.. poetic justice..lol... keep it up DUI Guy... if you dont land a TV deal you'll be past 1 million subscribers in no time... keep the passion up! Good things will come your way! ✌🏿🇺🇸🥇
Love watching you in court. highly effective
the judge wants a conviction. you can tell he and prosecutor are determined NOT to allow facts to come out
I fully support good law enforcement. I do not like how police officers demand that civilians address them by their police rank. Your rank means nothing to me. I am a veteran. If a civilian says "hi, sailor", I'm not going to say "I am addressed as (rank/rate)!". To Law Enforcement: Your ranks are relevant only within your department.
It is a very good thing that this sergeant or someone like him never pulled me over when I was having an extreme hypoglycemic crash. During those episodes, my speech is slurred, my balance is disjointed, my walking is completely off, and I have even admitted to the paramedics that I had 4 or 5 glasses of wine - when in fact, I had had no wine or alcohol to drink. 🙈🙉🙊🍷🙈🙉🙊🍷
Defence lawyer to cop, " you've never read the '92, '95, '00, '02' '04, '06, '13 DUI manuals ", cop, " No ", Defence, " are you shitting me.. ".
its funny how any document that the prosecutor wants to read from or state as policy or whatever..they never mind that...but everything the defence tries to do the same...nope wont allow that.
LOVE DUI GUY. FOR THE PEOPLE! Cops body language told me everything I needed to know.
My biggest concern is that people find out who the number one police trainer is in the US - Dave Grossman...his training is turning cops into paranoid warriors who see all civilians as threats whose sole purpose is to kill cops. Every citizen is guilty. Every citizen needs to be challenged, questioned, interrogated, identified and categorized into either "less of a threat" or "deadly threat." Any citizen who challenges, questions or refuses a cop's commands or demands automatically becomes a "wolf" and, in Grossman's words, "Wolves need to die" either through deprivation of liberty or outright extermination. And, to top is all off, Grossman tells cops that when they shoot and kill someone they will have “the best sex of their lives.” There is no such thing as "community policing" or "protecting and serving." From the moment an officer gets up in the morning until he or she goes to sleep at night...there is only surviving and God help anyone who threatens that survival...whether it is a real or perceived threat. And non-compliance, suspicious behavior, or even abnormal behavior is seen as a threat.
Let me guess -- he's a former marine? This is not a combat zone, doofus.... Jesus Christ.
Oh, it is unbelievable. He travels 300 days a year talking to police departments. His seminar is called, "killology" and "The Bulletproof Warrior." I have the seminar booklet. It is sick. I am an English Professor and writer. My specialty is in analysis and criticism of information. What he teaches needs no deep analysis. It is just sick. I am commenting on as many forums as possible to educate the public as best I can.
@@wesleymills4432 can you email me a copy? Larry@larryformanlaw.com
Done. It will be coming from my business email: resumepro39@gmail
Wesley Mills I’ve heard of this guy
I support GOOD and HONEST police officers. These are the men and women who do the right thing. Every officer that is deceitful, dishonest, and convinced they are above the law or that they ARE the law make those good officer's jobs more difficult and erode the people's faith in the system. I am a HUGE fan of this channel for correcting the mistakes the dishonest or clueless officers make. 👏
A legend was born! ✌💕
I love when you are owning the cop the judge has to shut it down. Him showing signs on the demonstration should be something the jury sees and hears so they see how bogus the test is
