Something I always wondered about, when they say the video cant be used as evidence because it was seized illegally what does that mean? The jury is supposed to act like it doesn't exist? Sure I cant watch it but I know that the video of you beating your girl exists which means I'm still voting you guilty whether the video is legal evidence or not.

in this case the prosecution didnt know if it could win the case so they made a deal, so this case never went to the jury or judge

but if it had, then yeah you could do that but your arent suppose to, the thing is in a typical case the jury wouldnt know about the tape unless it was covered by the media, and 99 percent of cases arent covered by the media

Except the defendant clearly admitted that he committed the crimes in question. His defense amounted to saying she didn't get it that bad.

Article says, "His girlfriend stopped cooperating with the investigation and refused to testify against him."

You either need a witness or corroborating evidence like a video tape. They had neither.

During a preliminary hearing, Lassart, who is also defending embattled state Sen. Leland Yee (D-Calif.) on corruption charges,did not deny that Chahal repeatedly struck his girlfriend, but insisted the physical damage was overblown.

He admitted in a court room he beat her. The police documents show that they observed a beating on tape.

He will deny it and people will buy it because he's rich.

This has more to do with the justice system than him being rich or corruption.

No one is buying he didn't beat her.

This case is unwinnable, that's why the prosecution decided not to pursue the case.

Also, that's fruit of the poisonous tree, so police saying they saw a beating from that thrown out tape would not be allowed in the trial.

I don't disagree with anything you said here.

I was merely addressing the posters article about his blog post saying he never touched her
