Judge admonishes Robert Costello for courtroom behavior
The courtroom drama unfolded today as Judge Merchan admonished Robert Costello for his reactions to objections during the trial. Costello, a key witness in the case, visibly showed his frustration when his testimony was repeatedly cut off by sustained objections.
Judge Merchan had to remind Costello not to answer when an objection was sustained, but Costello couldn’t help but emit a loud “jeez” after another objection. This visibly annoyed the judge, who sternly told Costello to show proper decorum in the courtroom.
Costello’s behavior led to a tense moment in the trial, with the judge losing patience with his reactions. The judge made it clear that he is the only person who can strike something and that Costello must respect the court’s rulings.
Despite the admonishment, Costello continued to show his frustration, muttering “ridiculous” to himself on the stand. The clash between Costello and the judge added an extra layer of drama to an already intense trial.
As the trial continues, all eyes will be on how Costello conducts himself in the courtroom and how his testimony will impact the case. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
