Because UNDER THE LAW, only information pertinent to a case is allowed to be presented by either the prosecution or the defense. Irreverent things are never allowed to be presented. To my mind some relevant things like criminal history of the defendant, are excluded except in some very rare cases when it’s used to establish a pattern of behavior,
He beat up a 14 year old girl.
He expressed a desire to shoot a black man at a CVS with his AR-15
He hung out with the Proud Boys after his release on bail, wearing a tee-shirt that said, "Free as Fuck".
Um, yeah, these are the kinds of things the Jury probably should have heard about, when he got up there with his, "I was just cleaning up graffiti when those mean old rioters attacked me."
