Broadchurch Episode #2.7 (2013–2017) watch online HD

This episode leads us up to the verdict. Closing arguments are presented. The prosecution provides facts; the defense simply repeats its ludicrous theory. Are British judges all like this one? The motions presented by the defense are nothing but stories. The judge (whom I found quite tiresome and short-sighted) seems to allow so much to go on. Are lawyers unable to object to a contrived case. In American courts the judge would have meat out of all this. She would also have had some serious directions for the jury. She has no trouble putting a stop to things like the use of sarcasm or smugness. What about the evidence itself? The final scene is the usual cliffhanger ending.

Wow! I cannot believe the bullcrap coming out of the mouth of that defense attorney, Sharon Bishop (Marianne Jean-Baptiste). That defense would NEVER happen in the US Court system. Any judge and the Prosecutor's would be objecting left and right citing assumes facts not in evidence and the other that would be used is Counsel is testifying. No Judge would allow this idea of an affair between two investigators or detectives would NEVER be allowed in Court. They spent 2 hours in his hotel room, talking about this case, when she was still trying to figure this strange detective out, whom she didn't even like him, as he infuriated her most of the time. Sure, they are trying to bring about up reasonable doubt, but the defense has nothing but innuendo and no facts to support this ludicrous concept. Unless this was the OJ Simpson case, where the judge always ruled against the prosecutor's office. There's an underlining of hostility between the prosecutor and the defense attorney as well. Bitter rivals? I prefer UK crime drama's; murder mysteries and television thrillers were the crime or mystery isn't solved in 44 minutes. You can spread the full story out and provide more clues. In the US, I generally known who the killer is before the first commercial. These are much harder to guess though, which I LOVE. I always love a challenge.
