Lead Detective Eric Barnes admitted this was the first time he had communicated with a witness this extensively. So what exactly were he and #JoseBodega talking about? The circumstances raise serious questions about possible collusion. If the lead detective and a key witness were communicating this frequently, could they have been comparing notes? Could Barnes have influenced what Bodega ultimately told investigators? Did he tell him what to say? We don’t know that happened. But the fact that these questions are being raised, particularly without documentation of those conversations, could become a problem for the State. #YellaBeezyTrial #TheTrialDocket

#TheTrialDocket: Did you know that the jury can find parts of #JoseBodega’s testimony credible without believing everything he says? Jurors can believe certain portions of his testimony while rejecting other portions they find unreliable. So even if they believe he lied about certain details, that doesn’t automatically mean they’ll disregard his entire testimony. The question is which parts, if any, they find credible after considering all the evidence. #TheDocketDiva #YellaBeezy #Mo3

#TheTrialDocket: #JoseBodega took the stand during a HEARING, not before the jury. He never officially testified as a witness during the trial. His appearance occurred during a hearing held during a break in the proceedings, outside the jury’s presence. His decision to invoke the Fifth Amendment during that hearing does not automatically prevent him from testifying later. The same Fifth Amendment concerns that led him to refuse to answer questions is why an immunity agreement became necessary. With immunity in place, the State may be able to compel his testimony without exposing him to prosecution for the matters covered by that agreement. Pleading the Fifth during a hearing and refusing to testify before a jury are not the same thing. #YellaBeezy

Yella Beezy: Using a grand jury testimony in place of live testimony poses significant issues. You can impeach somebody with their statements while they’re on the stand. But reading testimony in place of them testifying live poses a 6th Amendment issue. #JoseBodega #Mo3

#YellaBeezyTrial—#TheTrialDocket: Can a judge prevent #JoseBodega from invoking his Fifth Amendment right? Basically, a judge can determine whether the privilege applies to specific questions. But that doesn’t mean the court can simply take away his constitutional protection against self-incrimination. Here’s what the law allows and what it could mean for Bodega’s testimony. We’ll hear the judge’s ruling tomorrow.

#YellaBeezyTrial: #JoseBodega, whose statements the defense says led to #YellaBeezy’s indictment, invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination while testifying outside the jury’s presence during a hearing. Bodega previously gave 135 pages of grand jury testimony but later recanted part of his statement. During the hearing, prosecutors questioned him about conversations between Jerry Johnson and Yella Beezy that he allegedly witnessed. Bodega refused to answer, stating, “I’mma plead the 5th to that.” His attorney told the court that Bodega would invoke his Fifth Amendment right “across the board.” The portion of his statement that he recanted was described in court as a “central part” of the case. Beezy’s defense argues that Bodega’s statements were the basis for the indictment. With Bodega now refusing to answer questions about the alleged conversations, questions remain about how prosecutors will address this issue as the case proceeds. #TheDocketDiva

#DocketDivaForTheRecord: WHO IS #JOSEBODEGA? #YELLABEEZY’S FRIEND TAKES PLEA DEAL, COULD TESTIFY AGAINST RAPPER A hearing was held today in Yella Beezy’s capital murder case, and a major focus was the federal plea agreement involving Jose Bodega, whose real name is Theodore Thomas. Bodega is Beezy’s friend and a grand jury witness in the #MO3 murder case. He has his own federal criminal case and entered a plea agreement with the government that includes cooperation and an agreement to testify against Beezy. During today’s hearing, defense expert Julianna Moore testified about Bodega’s federal case and the benefits he received through the agreement. Moore testified that Bodega was facing federal sentencing guidelines of up to 151 months before reaching the plea agreement. She also testified that his federal gun charge was dismissed after he pleaded guilty to drug conspiracy. The defense focused heavily on what Bodega received in exchange for cooperating with prosecutors. Moore characterized the dismissal of the gun charge as a “huge benefit.” The defense also attempted to raise whether Bodega had been threatened with a RICO charge, but Judge Chika Anyiam instructed the attorneys to stick to the facts. Moore testified that a RICO allegation was not included in the plea agreement or the federal sentencing guidelines she reviewed. Bodega is also connected to the Ramona Street residence that became significant during #KewonWhite’s prosecution. Surveillance from that location showed White around the time of MO3’s killing, including footage of him burning clothing and appearing in the same underwear. White was convicted of MO3’s murder earlier this year. Now, with Bodega’s cooperation agreement on the record, the circumstances surrounding his federal plea are likely to become a major issue when prosecutors call him as a witness against Beezy. Beezy has pleaded not guilty. His trial is currently scheduled for October 26. Source: Today’s court hearing + court documents
