Lawyers Share Their Amazing “I Rest My Case!” Story

#20 I Can’t Believe He Was Honest

I was in a gang-related jury trial for attempted murder. The defendant was a known Crip and the victim was a Blood. Against his attorney’s advice, the defendant testified. The defendant had a tattoo on his arm that said “BK”. I asked him what “BK” meant. He replied with “Blood Killer.” I was shocked he said what it actually meant, but in retrospect, I guess I shouldn’t have been since he actually decided to testify.
