Friend's Testimony BACKFIRES on Trinity Poague Defense

Video Description

Jenna Newsome met Trinity Poague at a beauty pageant in 2020. She trusted Trinity enough to hire her as a babysitter for her own children, a 3-year-old daughter and 7-year-old son, more than ten times. Today, she took the stand for the defense to tell the jury that Trinity cared for kids without any problems. Then the prosecutor stood up. In less than a minute of cross-examination, he got Newsome to agree that any babysitter should recognize when a child is injured, should take action to protect them, and that if Trinity watched a child being abused and "just did nothing," that would be a "gross failure." The defense's character witness ended up making the prosecution's point. Trinity Poague is charged with murder in the death of 18-month-old Romeo Angeles. She has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent. ⏰ KEY MOMENTS 00:00 - Witness takes the stand 00:48 - How she met Trinity at pageant 01:15 - Prosecution objects to testimony 08:30 - Direct examination begins 09:19 - "No issues" with Trinity babysitting 09:44 - Cross-examination begins 10:04 - "Gross failure" if she did nothing 📖 JUSTICE BREAKDOWN: https://x.com/J_I_A_P/status/1996840605876416583?s=20 CASE BACKGROUND REPORT: https://x.com/J_I_A_P/status/1995657408199221620?s=20 🎥 HOW WE COVER TRIALS Uninterrupted courtroom footage with live chat discussion.
