    We walked in, sat down, Obie came in with the twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one, sat down. Man came in said, “All rise.” We all stood up, and Obie stood up with the twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures, and the judge walked in sat down with a seeing eye dog, and he sat down, we sat down. Obie looked at the seeing eye dog, and then at the twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one, and looked at the seeing eye dog. And then at twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one and began to cry, 'cause Obie came to the realization that it was a typical case of American blind justice, and there wasn’t nothing he could do about it, and the judge wasn’t going to look at the twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with the circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was to be used as evidence against us.

      Legitimately a good argument here, the chain of custody has to be validated in court, having pictures of text messages is often dismissed due to how easy they are to be forged and how often people use other people’s phones, unless the police have your phone unlocked and can prove you were the one who sent the message or go directly to your phone provider who usually deletes data after the minimum time mandated so they don’t have to fulfill costly subpoenas.

        Authentication is such a fucking low bar and, even if it wasn’t, most attorneys seem too tech retarded to even make the argument.

        Of course every judge I’ve met hasn’t been much better, so stupid arguments sometimes prevail (“tech scary” does the work).

      If pulling out giant prints of easily fakeable screenshots is enough to win any argument then cool

    She probably let him sit there and lie to her for an hour before trotting out the evidence, too.

    That’s a picture of a dead man.
