But if I could just weigh in and probably regret it later, one of the things that Mark did not just say –
is Mark, like me, you know how Gayle King's head exploded?
Like, I thought Fembot from Austin Powers, remember at the end when their heads blow up because you can't process the information?
Look, Mark and I have done the majority of our cases in Southern California.
And despite what you see in Real Housewives or...
The O.C.
Orange County is only 36 percent white, whatever that means, like white jurors.
And, you know, I tried 133 jury trials in Orange County, Megan, and I never had a single black man vote against me at the end.
Not one.
And what you see over and over again is you see these these young, idealistic kind of public defenders straight out of law school who come in and they buy into this media narrative that every black man in America has some some insurmountable chip on his shoulder and wants to subvert the justice system.
And they can't sit there like the same question is asked of every juror.
Can you put aside any preconceived notions or any preconceived experience you've had and decide the case based on your common sense, the law and the facts as presented?
Every juror is asked the same question.
And this idea that a black man can't do that.
You see these young public defenders and this is a little bit.
Technical here, but a lot of judges use what are called six packs where you have the twelve twelve seats with the prospective jurors and then you'll have six alternate or prospective alternates sitting in front of them.
So you can see the next jurors that are coming up that are going to be selected as you exercise your peremptory challenges and the.
You see this over and over again, this kind of soft racism where they will kick juror after juror after juror because you can see the black man coming up and then they'll they'll impanel them using their last peremptory.
And I mean, this is this is something I hope I'm not giving away.
I hope I'm not giving away any playbook here, but you see that over and over again, Megan, where inexperienced defense lawyers, not just public defenders, but they buy into the narrative and say, oh, that guy's going to be for me for sure.
