Lauren Johnson-Norris on Court TV Discussing Murder Case

California criminal defense attorney Lauren Johnson Norris. Lauren what's your take on I guess a jailhouse snitch just generally and then specifically this guy are are you buying his testimony.

Well a jail house snitch is always going to be looked at with suspicion and the defense is going to want to know what does he have 10 prior convictions for why was he in prison is this someone who has crimes of moral turpitude meaning they can't be trusted that they've demonstrated not being trustworthy in the past as a matter of law or is this somebody who just came in because they had to in the prosecution sort of made them compelled them to come so the defense is going to have a lot of questions about whether or not this person is truthful and what their motivation is for being there.

Specifically him, do you find his mannerisms the way he's conducting himself believable?

Well he doesn't look like he wants to be there I'll say that first and if he was brought in as a witness you know he doesn't have a choice he's kind of going through a version of a story that ultimately the jury's going to have to decide whether or not they believe but certainly there are some things about him that a juror might wonder is this a good guy is this a guy we should trust not just the way he appears but talking about his own drug history his own criminal convictions the fact that this was elicited in between air vents in a jail it's just not the most compelling information but he does have information that ultimately when you match up against the other witnesses is going to have to be looked out with scrutiny.

Absolutely and the cross will make the difference one way or another with this witness and frankly his story doesn't completely break from Nya Thao it's just that Nya Thao didn't tell him I was scared to death and that's why I shot these guys after black game with a gun so we'll see let's get a break we'll get you back in for more of the direct testimony with this former friend.

Lauren Johnson-Norris was amazing. She explained everything in ways that were easily understood, & answered all of my question. She was respectful, but also open & honest. She started work on my case the first day we met & got results quickly. She demonstrated passion, concern, and showed true feeling for my situation. My expectations were greatly exceeded. I would say she has an incredible attention for detail, & has a real dedication to her work. Lauren Johnson-Norris would be my first recommendation to any of my family or friends similarly in need of legal assistance. Heather

I researched a lot of attorneys and had met with two attorneys before speaking with Ms. Johnson-Norris and retaining her. I was facing serious charges that could not be on my record, due to my job and was really scared. I felt hopeless & thought my life was ruined...until I found Ms. Johnson-Norris… A criminal defense client (drug case)

She is on point. She knows her field well. I have to give credit where credit is due, you deserve it Lauren Johnson-Norris… Anonymous, Victim of Domestic Violence

Lauren Johnson-Norris was my saving grace. I naively thought you were innocent until proven guilty. However, I soon discovered that CPS and family court does not see things that way… Mrs. G, a CPS client
