**Official IGT** Derrick Rose Rape Trial

Lawyers for Rose and his co-defendants, friends Randall Hampton and Rayn Allen, were much more aggressive, immediately trying to leverage the fact that there were no black members of the eight-person jury. During jury selection, Mike Baute went straight at the jury and tried to ask them a series of questions about their sex lives (also via the Post’s Marsh):

His inquires including asking women “If your daughter came home with a black man, would that be OK?” and “Does a fact pattern involving three men having sex with a a woman offend you?”

The intense probing caused members of the jury pool to laugh nervously and shoot shocked stares at each other.

But they were spared having to answer if they ever used hook-up apps like Tinder or Bumble, with the judge scolding Baute: “Counsel, that is inappropriate.”

Opening arguments started yesterday. Derrick was not in attendance. He should be there today. Deadspin reported yesterday that the jury selection was something to behold:



Much like what the media has been reporting, I'm surprised this isn't much more publicized.
