Robert Blake, the Baretta and Little Rascals actor, was one of Hollywood's most iconic actors and figures. He was charged in the murder of his wife, Bonnie Lee Bakely. Gerald Schawartzbach was his lawyer. Blake was acquitted and Schwartzbach, who has been invovled in some of the biggest criminal cases, and perhaps the first known acquittal using a Battered Spouse defense , talks with me about his career, his book, Blake, his hippie days and more. www.killercrossexamination.com ___________________________________________ Neil Rockind is the host of the Killer Cross Examination podcast.

Good cross examination is more than just words ... it is story telling, action words, drama, theater.

Listen to this episode ... In this podcast episode, I break down the excellent work of criminal defense lawyers Jose Baez and Diane Menashe, lawyers for Dr. William Husel.

Steve Fishman, my guest on this episode of the Killer Cross Examination Podcast, said, "it is no surprise that a country founded on racism and slavery has police officers who are still prejudiced and racist." Fishman, from Detroit, and I break down the tragedies that we've seen in recent history, Breonna Taylor, Daunte Wright, George Floyd, Andre Hill and more ... we review video of the NJ Mall incident together and Steve shares his thoughts on the newly nominated Ketanji Brown Jackson to the US Supreme Court and why that is so important. We even talk about Tucker Carlson, Bill Barr, Roselawn, Mumford and Central High Schools.
My blood is boiling. I've commented on cases on television and radio and I've cross examined the best of witnesses -- officers, witnesses, experts and others with vigor, vim and eye toward destroying their credibility and when I saw the NJ Mall incident where the police detain a black youth and "comfort" a white teen, drove me to commentary. I've offered to represent the black youth and I welcome the police to come on my podcast to be cross examined and questioned by me. The only explanation for the police behavior appeared to be prejudice and race. Here is my take -- tell me otherwise.
Why? Of all of the careers some of you could choose or some of you chose, why did you become a judge? Why choose this one? On behalf of everyone ... I need to ask this question and on this episode of the Killer Cross Examination Podcast, I do. They don't call me The Rockweiler for nothing and on this episode, I turn my sarcasm, criticism and humor towards those that assumed the bench for all the wrong reasons. Take a listen and let me know what you think ... #crossexamination #judges #triallawyer
