Pheww! Judge denies defense motion for new trial in Tree case

◼ Bodhi Tree was in court dressed in the orange jail garb with his trademark "wtf" and "I don''t give a damn" expression. - John Chiv/Words Worth

Representatives from Probation, Victim Witness and two jurors were present as well as prosecution key witness Sean Butler-Smith's sister.

Prior to the motion, when sentencing has been scheduled, other jurors have attended as well. They are very vested in the outcome.

(John) Will be updating soon with more highlights from both arguments. (at the link)
