2/ Via Anna Bower:

Willis is back up on re-direct.

She directs Hill's attention to a post in which Floyd writes that Sterling and Brad Raffensperger are "pieces of💩you should be mad at."

Willis elicits a response from Hill in which he agrees that the statement directs 3rd parties how to feel.

3/ Random, cont'd. Via Bower:

Willis estab on dir. that Sterling saw tweets from Floyd

Then on cross, defense counsel begins: "Mr Sterling, you're not a fan of Donald Trump are you?"

McAfee nips that q in bud following state obj. Defense quickly moves on

3rd witness Von Dubose, atty for Ruby Freeman,Shaye Moss.

Per Dubose, he hired firm to conduct soc media threat assessments for Freeman,Moss.

Dubose says threats spiked following X post by Floyd, which necessitated extra safety measures

4/ JHC, the person tagged doesn't mean they'll see it. So if you @ them (tag them in the tweet) and threaten them it doesn't count because you didn't @ them directly?? Seriously?
5/ Defense is flat out denying that there was any threat whatsoever. None. 🤦🏻‍♀️

6/ Defense: "He's a law abiding citizen.. .Yes other things but that doesn't count" (I'm paraphrasing second part).

LAW ABIDING???

He had to show all the way up here in court, defense complains more than once.

Wow. This is why we need cameras in the courtroom, or at LEAST audio. Bc this kind of quote never makes it into news reports.

7/ Defense ACTUALLY SAID THAT if they felt threatened they could report Floyd to Twitter.

Twitter has no Twitter Support anymore. No rules. That's one of the stupidest things I've ever heard.

8/ Fani is up now. She's ... being very firm.

9/ Judge wonders if mentioning her by name w/ no @ may be okay.

Willis disagrees.

10/ Fani is using the word "disgusting." She's on fire.

Bower:

She announces she will deliver a PowerPoint in closing.

(Fulton County prosecutors love PowerPoints, y'all.)

Willis starts w/ bond revocation law & standard of proof (preponderance of evidence).

12/ Willis: 🔥"Your honor, I just have to prove that he violated the order... ONCE."

"You should not have done it. You knew it was against the rules!"

13/ Bower:

As Willis discusses Floyd's posts about Freeman, McAfee interjects to note that the tweets about don't tag her.

Doesn't Floyd have 1st Amendment right to criticize state's case? he asks.

Willis notes that Floyd agreed to speech restrictions when he consented to bond conditions

14/ Sorry, I misnumbered the thread. Fixed.

Bower:

You as the trial court have a duty to keep witnesses safe, Willis tells McAfee.

Floyd knew what he was doing and he signed agreement consenting to conditions, she continues.

Now he needs to be held accountable for it in order to make sure witnesses are kept safe.

15/ You should be watching Willis. I gave you the link upthread.

She is f'ing ON FIRE🔥
