Judge Holds Defense in Contempt Before First Witness | GA v. Derick Faust

Описание: Before the first witness was even called in Georgia v. Derick Faust, the judge was forced to step in.

During pretrial proceedings in the Georgia law student murder trial, the judge warned defense counsel that Rule 412 evidence could not be referenced without a proper filing and prior approval. The State asked for compliance.

Despite the clear warning, defense counsel returned to the same prohibited area.

The judge found defense counsel in contempt of court and imposed a $1,000 fine, setting a firm tone for how this trial will be conducted — all before testimony even began.

This early courtroom moment underscores the judge’s intent to strictly enforce evidentiary rules as the trial moves forward.

No filter. No fluff. Just facts.
The law student murder trial of Edrick Faust is now underway in Georgia.

Faust is charged in connection with the 2001 killing of Tara Baker, a University of Georgia law student whose case remained unsolved for more than two decades. Prosecutors allege that advances in forensic DNA testing led investigators to reopen the cold case and ultimately file charges years later.

This livestream covers Day 1 of the law student murder trial, including jury selection, opening statements, and the first testimony presented to the jury. The defense is expected to challenge the age, reliability, and interpretation of the evidence.
