Woke Trial

A Woke trial is a judicial proceeding whereby Leftists demand a certain outcome, thereby distorting the results. An innocent man can be wrongly convicted as a result of overwhelming publicity demanding that verdict, if the trial is not moved to fairer venue.

Conditions for a woke trial include many, but not necessarily all, of the following:

• intense liberal media publicity
• denial of a motion to transfer to a neutral venue
• violating traditional rules of evidence such that improper assertions by witnesses are allowed
• attorneys who do not vigorously represent their clients
• lack of a robust, timely appellate process known to apply Rule of Law
