Now as no call-in line Jan 6 trial of Guy Reffitt ends, now a detention hearing - by phone - on Matthew Beddingfield. His lawyer says, "He didn't mention Trump, he didn't wear a MAGA hat." Judge Faruqui drilling down. Inner City Press will live tweet, thread below
Judge Faruqui: So Mr. Beddingfield was 20, he's 21 now. But he has a prior record, and was on social media saying things that were very troubling. I don't want to get into the First Amendment issue, using what he says doesn't chill, he already said it
Judge Faruqui is moving toward releasing Beddingfield to the custody of his grandfather, who has no cell phone.
Judge Faruqui: I like that. We'd have a lot less trouble these days if there were more people like you.
Judge Faruqui: Can you take off the bedroom door so your grandson doesn't have any sense of privacy?
Grandpa: Yes.
Judge Faruqui: You'll have to be a full time jail custodian. You'd have to call his pre-trial services officer.
Now to you, Mr Beddingfield [grandson] if you violate the conditions, the other judges in this courthouse will ask me, Why did you release him...
Judge Faruqui: So I will release him, as long as he doesn't travel to DC... and doesn't have a bedroom door.
Again: why was there no call-in line for Reffitt trial? The Jan 6 trials coming up in DDC should have such public access lines, as do proceedings like this

Programming note: For those interested in the sex cult trial of Larry Ray - and who wouldn't be? - jury selection's been slow but Judge Liman just sent them to lunch. Inner City Press has been covering the case and will be live tweeting as much as it can, later Image
Update: it's 3:10 pm and Judge Liman takes the bench to say, There are new jurors in the room.
He asked them if any Yes answers to the questions.
Those who say yes, he tells "I will see you at the sidebar."
This could take a while.
Update: it's 3:50 and Judge Liman re-takes the bench to say that the following [prospective] jurors are excused: 2, 20, 61, 64, 65 and 71. And 73-100 won't be needed - they're to go out into the hall and get further instructions [to go wait in another case]

OK - now Flint water jury trial in Eastern District of Michigan court, before Judge Judith E. Levy. The Final Report is up on the exhibit screen for the jury. Inner City Press is following the case and may live tweet some, thread below Image
Judge Levy: The witness can only speak to his knowledge, not others'.
Counsel: I'll lay a foundation. Do you have personal knowledge as to whether they were evaluating corrosion control?
Witness: Looking for correct PH and balance.
Counsel: So they were discussing using Flint River water? Or is that comparing apples to oranges?
Objection as to form! I don't know what the oranges are.
Counsel: Did it relate to the Flint River or Lake Huron?
Witness: They do no compare: apples to oranges.

Scotty David is set to sit in the jury box, with a long boom mic stretching toward him. Buthe is not in the box as of 10:10 am. Even if Judge Nathan grants US Attorney immunity request, it would only kick in if Scotty Davis, as Spodek says he will, invokes the 5th
OK - at 10:21 am, Scotty David and Todd Spodek roll into the jury box. Scotty is in a sweater with a stripe across it; Spodek in a suit, quite different than the actor who plays him in Investing Anna. All rise!
