In fact he claims, to this day as far as I know, that the evidence against Quick is "extraordinari…

The level of dishonesty, stupidity and incompetence is tremendous. At the jurisdiction where I did that trials have all audio recorded. I saw the judge asking to stop the recording, basically saying out loud that the defendant was…
