Experience the world’s #1 blanket with Lola Blankets. #ad In this episode, we break down the ongoing Los Angeles preliminary hearing of the singer David Burke (D4VD), who faces serious charges including first-degree special circumstance murder, continuous sexual abuse of a minor under 14, and unlawful mutilation of human remains. Details the nature of a preliminary hearing as a public probable cause hearing rather than a trial, expecting the judge to hold the defendant to answer on all charges. We highlight key evidence presented by the prosecution—such as dental records used for identifying the victim, financial records tied to the pecuniary gain circumstance, DNA matched to blood in a Tesla and garage, and disturbing text messages documenting grooming and travel. We also explain the downstream legal proceedings, including how the district attorney's office committee will determine whether to seek the death penalty and how the 60-day speedy trial clock triggers once the case is bound over for trial.

    State’s Response to Sarah Boone’s Appeal | Case Brief

    Go to https://incogni.com/EMILY and use code EMILY to get 60% off annual plans. Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D. Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/GE1wZT_PDjE  This Case Brief details the state of Florida's response to Sarah Boone's appeal following her conviction and life sentence for second-degree murder, where she trapped the victim, Jorge Torres, in a suitcase. The state addresses several points raised by the defense, including claims that the trial court improperly limited opening statements regarding a battered spouse syndrome defense, misapplied a discovery violation remedy, and erred in its jury instructions on the initial aggressor exception to self-defense. The state argues that the trial court acted within its wide discretion, that the defense failed to properly preserve certain objections at trial, and that expert testimony regarding Boone's lack of immediate fear during the incident was permissible.

    Karen Read Cellphone Hearing: Can Special Prosecutor Cosgrove Be Disqualified? | Case Brief

    Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D. Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/Q6X5fgMQG2k  During a July 13, 2026, criminal court hearing, defense attorney Alan Jackson argued for the disqualification of special prosecutor Mr. Cosgrove from any further involvement regarding Karen Read's cell phone search warrant and witness intimidation investigation. Jackson contended that Cosgrove breached the required standard of prosecutorial independence by admitting coordination with the conflicted Norfolk County District Attorney's Office. In response, Cosgrove argued that Read lacks standing because there is no actual conflict, as his prosecution focuses on Aidan Kearney rather than Read. He further attempted to discredit the defense by citing prior judicial findings regarding a lack of candor. Ultimately, the judge took the matter under advisement amid ongoing discovery disputes over why Read's cell phones have not yet been returned despite multiple court orders.

    Karen Read Hearing: Major Updates on Colin Albert's Deposition and Medical/Financial Records Dispute

    Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D. Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/Q6X5fgMQG2k  During a July 10th court hearing, the court addressed two primary motions regarding discovery disputes. First, in Karen Read's motion to compel Colin Albert's deposition, the court delayed its ruling to gather more information regarding Albert's availability during his military basic training, while also ordering his attorneys to put recent updates about his scheduling into writing for the opposing counsel. Second, regarding the O'Keefe party's motion to compel further answers from Karen Read, the judge pushed the attorneys to privately discuss narrowing the scope of requested medical records and financial documents. After a brief sidebar, the parties reached an agreement to table the motion for a later date, leading the speaker to observe that the attorneys on both sides seem overly reliant on the court to resolve communications that could otherwise be handled independently.

    Karen Read Wrongful Death Case: Emergency Motions About Proctor’s Deposition | Case Brief

    Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D. Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/Q6X5fgMQG2k  In the Karen Read wrongful death case, the court denied Read’s emergency motion to reconsider and vacate the stay on former State Trooper Michael Proctor's deposition. Although Read's counsel argued that the court's original stay was based on a mistaken timeline regarding a leaked June 8th social media post, the court shifted its focus to a June 25th post by "Turtleboy" containing private details of Proctor allegedly suffering a panic attack during his deposition. While Proctor's attorneys accused Read's team of harassing questioning and leaking information, Read's defense asserted the leak came from a public bystander or security camera. Ultimately, the judge upheld the discovery stay due to ongoing privacy concerns, rejected an unrequested "notice pleading" tracking the parties' failed negotiations, and proposed a strict protective order to prevent further dissemination of sensitive deposition materials.

    Reckless Ben Lego Case, Huge Update. D4VD back in court.

    Save 20% off Honeylove by going to https://honeylove.com/LAWNERD ! #honeylovepod #ad The Emily Show provides updates on several high-profile legal cases, beginning with the David Burke (d4vd) special circumstances murder case, where a preliminary hearing has been scheduled for late July 2026 amid an investigation into alleged leaks at the LA County Coroner’s Office. In the Mackenzie Shirilla case, the Ohio Supreme Court denied jurisdiction over an "untimely" appeal filed during a leap year, prompting a new motion for reconsideration based on a potential split of legal authority. Additionally, the federal court has significantly limited a previously "horrific" temporary restraining order against Reckless Ben, while simultaneously requesting clarification on the LLC's members to confirm diversity jurisdiction. Finally, an extension was granted in the TikTok psychic $10 million defamation appeal, with her opening brief now due at the end of July.

    Alex Murdaugh Claps Back at Becky Hill’s Motion to Dismiss | Case Brief

    Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D. Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/a2-nRldN-jo  This Case Brief involves a civil lawsuit filed by Alex Murdaugh against former clerk of court Rebecca Hill, alleging that her jury tampering during his first murder trial violated his constitutional right to a fair trial. Hill has filed a motion to dismiss, asserting that Murdaugh has failed to state a claim for which relief can be granted because he cannot prove her actions caused the $600,000 in legal fees he seeks to recover, while also claiming multiple forms of legal immunity. Murdaugh’s response argues that the motion should be denied because nominal and punitive damages are available under federal law for constitutional violations even if actual damages cannot be proven. While Hill contends his requested damages are not redressable or ripe for adjudication, Murdaugh insists Hill's actions rendered the value of his initial defense expenditure worthless, creating a live case and controversy that warrants proceeding to discovery.
