Just caught a bit of the opening arguments from the prosecution.

They played that entire 9+ minute video as part of it, and truthfully that could have been their entire presentation. Maybe even effectively. Put that thing on, drop the lights, turn up the volume and just let it play out.

I have no idea what the defense will be. Though I am sure they will blame the victim for being a drug user etc, but I just have a hard time not seeing a conviction in ths case. Of course i thought the same about OJ and others through the years, so who knows.

I just hope whatever happens leads to real changes where needed and without any more violence/bloodshed/rioting etc...as I believe that is even less productive than doing nothing.
