“YOU’RE NOT A LAWYER!” — Judge West SHUTS DOWN Defendant’s Legal Arguments

#JudgeRaquel West#courtroomdrama YouTube Description Judge West SHUTS DOWN a defendant during an intense courtroom hearing after he chooses to represent himself and begins presenting his own legal arguments. The defendant challenges the proceedings with claims involving legal procedure, hearsay, and motions to quash. Judge West repeatedly reminds him that representing yourself in a criminal case is extremely difficult and that he must follow the same rules and procedures as an attorney. The courtroom exchange becomes increasingly tense as Judge West demands that the defendant clearly explain the legal basis for his arguments instead of simply using legal terminology. She ultimately denies his motions and encourages him to reconsider having an attorney represent him. Watch the full courtroom exchange to see how Judge West handles a defendant determined to argue his own case. ⚖️ This video is presented for educational, informational, commentary, criticism, and entertainment purposes only.
