They told us for an entire year that there's nothing interesting about the footage, that you can't see anything in it.
But if that's the case, it's very odd that the prosecution made the video a centerpiece of their opening argument, as well as the first testimony that a jury heard.
Jurors watching two versions of the footage, the raw video and a version that was enhanced,
And then prosecutors question a video forensic expert who works with the DA's office about the footage.
The entire tape lasted for 15 minutes and 20 seconds, and it begins with the Metcalf brothers entering the stadium.
Now, at the three minute, 24 second mark, Anthony enters the stadium at seven minutes and 57 seconds into the video.
The forensic expert says that people started paying attention to what was happening under the tent.
One person appears to push another person underneath the tent.
The physical confrontation lasts a couple seconds, and then there's a flurry of movement.
And as described by an NBC reporter in the courtroom, Anthony, quote, exits the bleachers at the top of the tent, goes onto the walkway, down a ramp, and into the parking lot, appears to alternate between running and walking throughout.
Now, as Anthony exits the bleachers, someone is pointing at him, and at 12 minutes and 30 seconds, Anthony is being escorted out by the police.
Now, from these descriptions, which were provided by reporters who could barely see it, since the TV wasn't angled towards them, we can conclude that indeed the video footage is highly relevant evidence.
It's not worthless, as every media outlet claimed.
Instead, to the contrary, the footage is strong evidence of Anthony's guilt.
Now, first of all, if Anthony had truly acted in self-defense and neutralized a dangerous threat, there would be no reason for everyone to run out of the tent in a panic.
and to point towards Anthony so that the coaches and police could apprehend him.
When Daniel Penny neutralized the violent homeless schizophrenic on the train, people didn't run out of the subway car and tell the police to arrest him.
Instead, they helped Penny restrain the vagrant.
And they were relieved when he took care of business.
So the fact this tape shows the opposite reaction from bystanders, the fact that it shows how horrified they were by what Anthony did, strongly suggests that he committed murder.
