Menendez: A Killing in Beverly Hills (1994 TV Movie)

H. Richard Greene: Judge Weisberg

Quotes 

• Judge Weisberg : I've just a few remarks before we continue. The remark has to do with the conduct of council during the questioning of the witness, specifically that of Ms. Abramson, and mugging to the audience during the testimony of the witness. If the prosecution would do the same during the testimony of one of your witnesses, how would you react to that?

  Leslie Abramson : As long as it wasn't in front of the jury, it wouldn't matter to me.

  Judge Weisberg : Council, the jury is right behind you, and to your left.

  Leslie Abramson : The jury can't see what I'm doing!

  Judge Weisberg : I could see your eyes rolling when you're facing the witness.

  Leslie Abramson : The jury can't see that either.

  Judge Weisberg : There is a jury in the jury box that could easily see what you're doing. Now is there something...

  Leslie Abramson : I will try...

  Judge Weisberg : No, not try! You will succeed in not mugging for the jury; not making faces to the audience; you will behave professionally. Is that clear?

  Leslie Abramson : Yes, of course.
