Mickey Sherman Quotations

We wanted 12 intelligent people with a lot of common sense. Boy, it looks like we got what we wanted. It's an ideal jury.

Damned if I know. This is the same Melinda Raisch who, in 1982 was certain that two black men did this, then in 2001 said she didn't know who did it, and now that she's locked up and facing life in prison is apparently ready to change her mind again.

If we knew and if he knew (who killed Moxley), he would be the first one to rat the person out, no matter who it was. He doesn't know, he wasn't there, he didn't do it, he had no part in it, and he has no knowledge of it.

Generally once someone takes the stand, most judges allow a wide latitude for cross-examination and certainly anything that bears on their credibility is often fair game.

If they're acquitted, (in the mind of the public) they were not innocent, they got off. The stigma will always be there. (Either way this goes), they're losers. They will never be able to get back to where they were.

It certainly adds an element with which the jury is going to have some difficulty.

I am convinced of it - I have always been convinced of it.

They better line up Blumenthal in case I get dumped.

My client's mindset? I don't think he's the most relaxed guy in the world coming here, but I think he's doing pretty darn well, and he's looking forward to this case finally being over.

He's like the J. Edgar Hoover of Hollywood. Supposedly, he's got all the dirt on everybody and, now that he's being targeted, everybody's in trouble.
