In legal cross-examination, strategic positioning involves carefully choosing which analogies or historical precedents to accept or reject, as accepting certain arguments can inadvertently undermine one's own line of questioning; effective defense attorneys may deliberately distance themselves from logical conclusions that would strengthen the prosecution's case, even when those conclusions are factually accurate, to maintain the integrity of their questioning strategy.

SENZO MEYIWA CASEII 📢SHOCKING WATCH HOW JUDGE RATHA “GET EDUCATED” MOMENT HUMILATED ADVOCATE MNISIAdded:
The state is saying that is speculation.
>> But are you trying to make a proposition that uh contraband can be smuggled into the police station?
>> No. No. No.
>> Because it can be. Everybody knows that it can be.
>> No, I do not know that.
>> I'm not.
>> Okay. Let me tell you about something you may know. Nelson Mandela >> smuggled Long Walk to Freedom.
>> Yes. Yes. It's about 800 pages.
>> Yes.
>> Using Maharaj.
>> Yes.
>> At Robin Island.
>> Yes.
>> Doesn't that tell you something?
>> I'm I'm I'm hearing that for the first time.
>> For the first time. Okay. Get educated.
>> He was at the peak of his career. Who did not like that?
>> Is this just >> I say it was a hit. Where is the last?
>> Thank you, brother.
>> So, it it is possible to smuggle >> people. Wait, wait. People smuggle contraband at the police station.
>> Yes.
>> Putting by eating it, swallowing mandre tablets.
>> Yes.
>> Inside their just just stand up.
>> Okay. Stand up. Just I want to see it.
Haven't you heard about that?
We'll call them people. People swallowing contraband meaning Mandrix tablets or other forms of tablets >> in in a in a duct of a of a lung of a of a rubber and selling it. You've never heard about this.
We all know about it. We read about it in the press.
>> So it is possible. That's why the department of justice or not department of collective services conducts periodic searches, surprise periodic searches.
And I'm told as an advis that people also smuggle television sets into the cells. This is television set into the cells. We have never heard of it.
Ladies phone TV whatever >> I did not hear about.
>> Okay.
Tomorrow.
>> Wait. What's the time?
>> What?
>> 1532.
>> That's it. I said 30 minutes.
>> I said 15 minutes. That's what I said.
Yeah. Yeah. He knows she's an intelligent lady tomorrow again.
>> Okay.
You know what? This is worrying me.
>> Imagine, just imagine if Advocate Ni had said, "Yes, my lord, I am well aware of that historical fact." Imagine that. You know, when when Jeff Shatter brought up Nelson Mandela smuggling the 800page manuscript of Long Walk to Freedom out of prison, he wasn't just dropping a history lesson, members of the court of public opinion. He was not doing that.
He was actively dismantling Advocate Mun's line of questioning. But Advocate Mun was aware of that. Advocate Mun was aware of the of the of Judge Trap. and he said uneasy I'm not coming let's unpack the chess match that is happening beneath this the surface here and why advocate he chose to feain ignorance rather than walk into the judge strap now the thing is advocate min uh's goal in questioning the witness about the confiscated cell phone was likely to cast doubt on how it got there suggest the breach of protocol or imply the evidence was compromised or you know planted but for judge bringing up Mandela he was making a point about prison reality if Nelson Mandela could have smuggled an entire massive book manuscript out of maximum security apartate prison then a prisoner getting a tiny tiny cell phone.
Tell me tiny cell phone in today.
It's not I mean in today's time it's not impossible. It's not a grand conspiracy.
It just happened. I mean it's a tiny cell phone. He could swallow it you know for all we we care. He could swallow it if they can smuggle in TVs.
What what is a phone?
So instantly advocating is he noticed that and distanced himself from that.
Not that he's not aware. He possibly he could he could uh not being aware but but I doubt if he's not aware he was just you know distancing himself from a judge's logic because by doing so he would just compromise his line of questioning because essentially his argument is if this phone is so important where is the proper documentation proving lawful seizure handling registration and opportunity.
Where is Where is it? And and why is judge so hellbent to fight and and um to fight the defense challenge?
Why is so so hellbent doing that? Let me know on the comment section. What do you think? Why is he biting tooth and nail the non-existence theory of of my banner? Why is he doing that? Because uh if if M would have said yes, you know, judge how he is, he was going to say, so so why are you acting as if her cell phone could not move around?
And that that would have made it seem as though questioning was naive or artificial.
So instead, he was so clever advocating.
You know, you can look down on him at your own peril, at your own cost. He avoided fully embracing that analogy.
And that was a very classic courtroom positioning. I miss he is woke anytime he is there. He is there standing on business that is advocate missive for you and and that's why judge data was so irritated increasingly irritated with advocate ni because he could see that advocate ni is like 12 steps ahead of him. He thought he got him. He thought that advocate minister will you know will take the bait but advocate minister showed him that uh I am not going to do that and that's why he decided on on humilating him publicly on national TV humiliating him telling him to get educated.
Now if you think this is for the first time this issue has come up think again. I have already did a full explosive breakdown on another moment uh kru moment where judge rata appeared to strongly entertain the cell phone smuggling theory and even confuse uh DCS procedures with se procedures. So if you want the full context behind why we are questioning his neutrality on this issue, check the link in the description box and the pinned comment after this video. Now let's take a listen further on advocate line of questioning.
Now the states in their cross examination to you they say Moane and Mana after having received information that [clears throat] accuse number two had a phone with him in the cells. They rushed there and they were able to find it.
number two.
Okay. Yes.
Okay. Thank you ma'am. Um now against the background that you also confirm being the process that gets followed before a detainee get placed in in in in in the cells.
[snorts] the the the what what are probabilities what are probabilities that after that process that we've just mentioned now has been followed that a prisoner that a detain could still be found with a cell in their possession [clears throat] my lord my colleague is inviting the witness to speculate This is not a speculation.
This is >> talking about probability.
>> Yes.
>> Yeah. So, probability encapsulates speculative answers.
Let me put it in a in a in a different way.
The process that we have sketched to make sure that a person does not take into the cells something that is not allowed in the cells has been followed.
Yes.
Now that is if that process is followed to the latter of the law.
Yes.
>> Would a person still be found with a cell phone in the cells?
The witness testified she does not know what time was the cell phone or the search was conducted. She was only there for hours. She Mother probably the state does not understand.
>> I understand >> and that is by design. The fact that they they they pretend not to understand is by design. The evidence before this court m that nutani has been in that cate has been at feria for more than 5 months four to five months.
>> So what about that?
>> That is the basis of the question that I'm asking. Yeah, I'm just saying.
>> Yes. So, the misunderstanding is by design, >> is it?
>> Yes.
>> But nonetheless, thank you, ma'am.
>> This moment perfectly captures why the Senzo Maywa trial continues to divide South Africans. Because depending on how you watch the exchange, you [snorts] either saw a judge correcting a weak logic or a defense lawyer being unfairly unfairly mocked while testing the state evidence. But one thing is certain, [snorts] you know, that get educated moment is now permanently part of Jasha's trial courtroom history. and the tension between Josh and Advocate Munis.
We are definitely paying attention.
Let me know what on the comment section what you think. Do you think the judge was simply educating the council or did the frustration become too personal?
I'll I'll meet you in the comment section. But for now, if you are still here, thank you so much for your support. Please drop a yellow heart in the comment section to show that you are with me through and through. Until the next one, remember not to skip the S.
