Jose Baez was reprimanded by Judge Perry on Saturday and then again today. He will most likely get sanctions as well as a report to the Florida Bar from Judge Perry . He will most likely get this for his second offense of not revealing to the prosecution what a witness was planning to discuss on the stand.
While Jose Baez may have to pay thousands of dollars and may possibly lose his license, or at worse scenario end up in jail for a short period of time, it may not even matter to him in the long run.
The reason I say that is because this case has already made him a Super Star. Jose Baez will probably make millions from a book deal, speaking engagement, a film deal, and will probably end up being a legal analyst for one of the national stations.
The national media loves Jose and are lenient on him. He also comes across very well on camera. He speaks well in smooth tones and is articulate . He also presents himself well on camera and dresses well.
The reason I say he will probably get a major TV career is because TV loves the infamous with controversy. It brings in a lot eyeballs . Love him or hate him, people will watch him. Those that love him will watch him because they love him and those who hate him will watch him because they hate him. In addition he has a TV mentor, Geraldo Rivera whyo can help his career as well.
In TV land people are often rewarded for bad behavior. Look at former NY Governor Elliott Spitzer. He has his own show on CNN. Even internet genital exposer and former US Representative Anthony Weiner may get a television career as Keith Olbermann wants him on his show on Gore’s Current TV. Look at infamous “don’t call me a hooker” Rachel Uchitel who had sex with a then married Tiger Wood . She had a TV gig on an entertainment show and is now gunning for a reality show where she is a PI.
If we take it further back in the day, Johnny Cochran “if the glove don’t fit you must acquit” OJ fame got his own TV show where he was paired up with former Atlanta prosecutor Nancy Grace on Court TV. Johnny of course died of a brain tumour and Nancy flourishes on her own shown on HLN.
So,as far as Jose Baez is concerned there is no reason for him to worry in my view, because he will come out ahead financially, careerwise, and celebrity wise. www.drlillianglass.com

Nothing the modern media does would surprise me anymore. That said, to me he comes across as pretty sleazy, and has an abundance of hubris.
One of the t.v. commentators said that, when in the courtroom, he smiles and says “good morning” to the jury, they do not smile back. Yet they do return smiles to the Prosecutors.

After reading your post I immediately thougt about having recently seen Mark Fuhrman (sp?) on TV discussing this case, among other things. He was certainly a bizarre figure in the OJ case and has lived to see another day in great style.
I heard that Jose’s background check done by the FL Bar Assoc. did not go well and that he was in a word, a disreputible kind of guy, and did not have an easy time becoming a practicing attorney there. Do you know if this is true, Dr. Glass?
He seems to be or have been a popular lawyer in the jailhouse for whatever that means and he struck gold this time. I totally agree that the more of a spectacle he makes himself in this trial, the more media he will get after the trial is over. So although KC will most probably spend the rest of her life growing old and gray in prison, and rightly so in my opinion, Jose will be living the good life.

The Florida Supreme Court said his financial mishaps coulpled with his failure to pay child support, “show a lack of respect for the rights of others and a total lack of respect for the legal system, which is absolutely inconsistent with the character and fitness qualities required of those seeking to be afforded the hightest position of trust and confidence recognized by our system of law”…

There may be some media that love him, but, I can tell you locally, in Orlando, he is a joke and the media have nothing but contempt for him. Judge Perry is well respected and when he speaks, people listen. He doen not speak unnecessarily!
For an attorney to dispute the judge and argue with one, is beyond direspectful, arrogant and just plain stupid. If Baez were a good attorney, one could make allowances, but, he has had issues for three years. Further, the defense has had three years to prepare for this case, so there is NO reason for ths nonsense happening to be happening, but, dirty sleazy tricks.
He is a very hated man in Orlando and as much as I dislike Casey Anthony, he is jeopardizing her case bu his antics! He always blames someone for his issues – making him look not very bright!

Yes, I agree, Baez has only been in this to build upon his lust for fame, posing for pictures like he is some celebrity, mind you over the brutal murder of a little girl. I don’t think this relates at all to the OJ trial and Mark Fuhrman. I lived in the LA area at the time and he was falsely accused and maligned on the stand. He has always said that he would have preferred not to have had this notoriety as it changed and basically ruined his life. Baez on the other hand is seeking it out.
The emotions sure run high on this blog about this case. I think it is because of the sheer horror of what this is about; a pathological liar mother brutally murdered her own child with duct tape/chloroform and triple bagged her, threw her in the trunk of her car for a time and tossed her in a trash heap, while partying and having sex until she got tracked down and caught by her mother. Casey has no guilt at what she did and appears proud and happy about it to this day. I don’t think this case would’ve been so sensationalized without the parents being on TV night after night after night. Cindy and George didn’t act normal either so it made this more interesting but it really is about the brutal murder of a sweet little girl. I’m very interested in Dr. Glass’s analysis and opinions so I hope others on this blog can stop all the personal attacks. It really is counter productive. We are here standing up for the victim and wanting to know answers to body language questions, not to bash each other or Dr. Glass.

Also, his body language clearly indicates that he does not think he is wrong and he is disrespectful of those who disagree with him… probably why he is divorced.
What he did behind closed doors with Casey when she was out of jail is a matter of conjecture unless someone in his office cares to speak up. But clearly if she had any doubts about his qualifications, he convinced her otherwise and here she is today, instead of perhaps taking a plea that would have gotten her 7-10 with concurrent on all the other felonies.
He drove this bus to generate media interest and got those funds from ABC which Casey is also being punished for receiving by the IRS.

No one is right according to what I heard as recent as Saturday.

Today, thanks to him, the jurors have to spend a whole day in their hotel rooms and their is no excuse for that. Some of the things he does are quite intentional. He is looking for a “mistrial” and the judge won’t hear of it. Obviously, Baez promised Casey a “mistrial” as she told several people “I’m going to have a “mistrial”. He is not qualified to do a death penalty case and his lack of education certainly shows in his presentation of cross examination. I feel for the jurors who are subjected to this.

Mason will retire and there will be no refection him, the other two young girls are most likely not to be remembered, but Ms Simms, she will be and I do think she will be judged for her connection in a bad way. I believe that Baez will be disbarred and and rightfully so. He does not deserve to be an attorney. When I think that LINDA BODAN (another scum bag) called the bug man on 12/11/08 and asked him to come to Florida and research the seen before anyone knew that the seen was actually Caylee Anthony, it makes me sick to my stomach.

I have heard nothing but his incompetence and confusion and lack of experience. All of which I completely disagree! What we do not hear about is the COMPLETE IDIOT that ASHTON has made of himself in the court room. While Perry ALLOWS! and for the most part cheers him on! Did we ever see Jose Baez with any of the behavior that Ashton has exhiblted: Yelling and Badgering witnesses, objecting 10-12 times during a testimony and being SUSTAINED 9 out of 10 times! Requesting 4-5 side bars with each witness, standing over Baez shoulder while trying to give a presentation, touching elbow to elbow, complaing that when the easle was in place for the jury and the witness if Ashton could NOT see it, it must be moved! Openly yelling out statements in court duing a witness testimony, without being recognized by the Judge to speak! I can brt you if Baez had done ANY of this there would be NO end to the sanctions! Yet until today, Baez has quietly stood by and witnessed this circus! The Prosecution has NOT complied with the orders either yet nothing has been said about that? And that is because Baez did NOT make a big deal out of it. It is becoming evident that the STATE has NOT proven their case and this inexperienced attorney that they “thought” would not have an impact HAS PICKED APART every single prosection witness one by one. NOT by yelling, badgering, and endless side bars but by disproving what they are saying. What we do NOT hear about in any of the media for instance was the AGONY that the prosection put Dr. Huttington through during his testimony that was completely UNNECCESARY and proved to be rediculous! This Dr. finally basically stated if the STATE had a brain they would have tested the magnets stomach contents to SEE and PROVE what they had been eating! Since Ashton wants to INSIST that it was decomposition. AND of course the Dr’s statement was stricken and REMOVED from the record! Why? Because it was the MOST sense we had heard in weeks! In addition, this same Dr. as did others stated that the reason the stain was NOT decomposition was because the number of magets and other insects would have been in the hundreds to thousands and there were Nothing like that rather common fuit flys that would normally be present in garbage. So, while Baez realizes he is in the middle of a court room that is being run BY THE PROSECUTION I believe that he had made SOME of his own minor mistakes BUT the MAJORITY of what has gone on has been the CIRCUS compliments of the STATE NOW trying to DISCREDIT the lawyer…THEY have nothing else but a girl who lies and appears to have detached herself emotionally from all of it! So, the ONLY way that they can gain FAVOR with th Jury is to go after HER ATTORNEY! Pathetic and NO, certainly Baez is NOT getting any kind of love from either the Media or the court.

Dr Glass- You stated that you are “in the limelight because I believe I have a lot to say”. I think you say a lot without ever realizing the impact. It’s a hot off the press mantality -who gives a hoot about presentation. Pride in publication or the ernest desire to “think it through” is secondary.You can write about how incompetence can make a person a “super star” but it will never make him a “defender of the underdog” or the Constitution.
Here is how you evaluate incompetence. Mr Baez does not have the ability to put a subject or a predicate together (see Motions) but suddenly, as we see his legal career going down the tubes, he becomes a writer. He will be a saught after public speaker, Hollywood will pound down his door to make a film about him, and at the end of the day he will be “a legal analyst for one of the national stations.”
I believe you believe you have a lot to say. I believe you believe Mr Baez has nothing to worry about once this trial is over and he is sanctioned, facing large fines ( probably no jail time) and when his incompetence is clearly outlined in Ms Anthony’s appeal for ineffective counsel, he will be on with Mr Rivera talking about the legal issues of the day. A truly sad analysis.
The research completed by DUNNING AND KRUGER should help you define just how others evaluate those who seek the limelight. Mr Baez found himself in this position because he could not recognize his own incompetence. When ignorance begets confidence we all have to recognize it; Judge Perry has to do something to protect this defendant. Mr Baez will never be able to jeopardize this defendants right to live out her natural life in prison.

When he is on the fly, in front of a witness, all we get is “UMMmm, let me rephrase –no strike that…. Now uh, let me see… oh that was a bad question… my mistake….”

Baez is what my grandmother would have called “a big stuffed shirt”. He is a sleazy slimey smarmy snarky snake oil salesman in a fancy suit. If someone is superficial and only sees the clothes, then they might think he looks nice. If you look at him, he’s a shady lying snake.
How, pray tell, would this incompetent lawyer get paid to do legal analysis? What is he going to give advice on, how to not do your job correctly? How to avoid working on your clients case in order to schedule and make media appearances?
I can barely stand to listen to Baez speak. He can’t form a coherent sentence, he talks in circles using lots of words but saying nothing. He drones on and on until all I can hear is the Charlie-Brown-teacher-noise.
Are we watching the same trial? This is the lawyer that says his clients child drowned by accident, then argues with the dog that hit in the backyard by the pool he says she drown in. This is the fool that insists a child drowned, and then spends hours upon hours asking if blood was found anywhere. And I totally agree with the posters that say he blames everyone else for his failures, misbehavior, and shortcomings ….just…like… casey.

I have wanted to like Baez. I always like the underdog. I became Baez friend on Facebook months ago because I was amazed that he had a Facebook page and I have enjoyed the (brief) moments he has done well. I can’t comment on his facebook page publicly, however, because I am AFRAID any of my real friends would see it! Over the course of the trial I have become more and more ashamed of him. He is a man who was willing to send his own client to the gallows in exchange for his own notoriety. His nice suits are not enough. Dr. Glass, you put too much stock on appearance only. Baez is a strip mall attorney who will have nothing but trouble when this is over. He’d be lucky to get any other cases and he may even be disbarred! Attorneys have to win to get the kind of jobs you are describing. Last I checked he’s not winning.

Like I said yesterday I am waiting for Ms Anthony’s hair to erupt in flames any day now.

Believe it or not, I studied law at a top-ranked school, some would say THE top school. Most of my professors were graduates of the World’s greatest schools: Yale, Harvard, Stanford, Oxford, Cambridge, etc.. My classmates were equally impressive and I’ve since gone on to meet many truly talented practitioners. Accordingly, It breaks my heart to think that all of those brilliant men and women, despite their incredibly deep and nuanced understanding of the law, and their contributions to the profession in, and out, of both the classroom and the courtroom, will never have the fame (infamy?) that Jose Baez has managed to achieve at the expense of his media-worthy (but mentally ill) client. A man the went to the lowest ranked law school in Florida (if not the USA). A man that took 8 YEARS to pass the bar. A man that, despite being 40, had only just begun to practice law. A man that thinks “disjustice” is a word. A man who can’t complete a single sentence with out making at least one grammatical error. A man that, in 3 years, has been unable to spontaneously cite a single relevant case, statute or procedural rule. A man that, within seconds of opening his mouth at trial, effectively shifted the burden of proof onto his client. A man that ignored his client’s obvious mental illness in order to push for a media worthy trial. A man that put his client at risk of the DP in order to get his double-chin on TV and line his pockets with cash. A man that went on TV imploring good samaritans to spend their time and money searching for a live Caylee and a nanny, knowing all the while that Caylee was dead and the nanny never existed. I suppose I could stand watching Baez rise to fame if he wasn’t a short, fat, weak-chinned, big-eared, google-eyed, dullard in elevator shoes (what do those shoes tell us Dr. Glass?), but this is too much to bear without commenting. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that, even in the legal profession, you can’t escape the fallout of a culture that makes “celebrities” out of people like the ‘OctoMom’ and the Goslins.

My legal colleagues and I have been following this case from the beginning. We even read blogs about the case during our breaks. I have not met one attorney yet who holds Bozo in high esteem. Forgive me for calling another attorney Bozo, but that is an apt name for him.
Most attorneys do their jobs very well and we don’t mind that we are not on TV all the time, getting fanfare and media reviews. We enjoyed a good education, earn a good living, and represent people in fulfilling cases. No attorney is expected to win all the time, but we are expected to show decorum in the courtroom and respect for court procedures, due process, and discovery—all of which Bozo has ignored.
I watched Judge BP giving admonitions today and it is clear to me that he has Bozo in his cross-hairs. The Judge included Ashton in his admonition but if you are an attorney, you would know that the substance of his scolding was directed squarely at Bozo. My colleagues and I can’t believe that we are watching this kind of behavior from another attorney—until we realize his lack of legal skills. I do not consider this man to be an attorney and would never watch any show that gives Bozo the limelight. He is a joke and a disgrace to the legal profession. So there you have it, folks, this is what other attorneys think of Bozo.

After reading the many comments of disagreement to this blog post, I wondered if I’d read it well the first time. So, I went back just now and read it again.
“He also comes across very well on camera. He speaks well in smooth tones and is articulate.”
Except for that little bit (above), which could be nothing more than a difference of personal taste and opinion, or even due to my bias against Baez, Dr Glass wrote nothing that is complimentary of Baez, in support of Baez or in defense of Baez.
It’s true that the national media is lenient on him. It shows in how his courtroom antics and attempts at trickery are played down while the few points he’s scored for the defense have been discussed as if they’ve all but secured a “not guilty” verdict. The talking heads have been displaying some definite pro-Baez bias.
It’s also true that the national media likes him. The national media likes Casey Anthony, too, just as they liked OJ Simpson, Tonya Harding, Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, and anyone else who has increased viewership and ratings for them at so little cost to the networks/stations. If they see the oppty of retaining some viewers by offering him a few $$$ (relative to the cost of real talent) to make appearances as a legal contributor, they’ll do it. Happens all the time. (Mark Furhman comes to mind first.)
To predict that Baez will bank on this experience doesn’t state or imply that he’s right,that what he’s trying to accomplish in this case is right, that he’s competent, that he’s a stand-up guy, that he deserves to gain financially and professionally from this case, or that those who offer him money after this, be it to buy his book or sign him on to appear on their cable news programs, will be right in doing so. Nor does it imply that Dr Glass wants these things for Baez.
For what it’s worth, I don’t like the guy, either, and I’d not make it a point to watch him as contributor on one of the cable news stations nor would I buy a book he may one day write. But my not caring to see Tonya Harding’s face on my tv hasn’t stopped VH1 and others from paying her to appear on their programs. (There’s no accounting for taste.)

Dr. Glass, I love your website and usually agree with you about 99% of the time but do take issue with your reference of Jose Baez as “articulate.” Articulate is defined as “using language easily and fluently; having facility with words.” Baez has clearly demonstrated that he has trouble speaking off the cuff/thinking on his feet, often does not use proper sentence structure or grammar and has trouble forming logical and meaningful questions. The fact that he is anything but articulate is why many people, myself included, find this trial so painful to watch. It’s a shame that he may end up with a career in media, but hopefully it will be as successful and long-lasting as his career as an attorney.

Sally, I agree with you. In law school, students take Trial Advocacy, Appellate Practice, Moot Court, and clinics in order to learn to speak and write better. Attorneys are held to a higher standard in our speech and writing. We must use proper syntax, spelling, and grammar in court pleadings, letters to clients and other counsel, and everyday writing. When we speak, we must apply the same rules of fluidity and grammar, especially in a court of law where everyone is watching every move and listening to our every word.
Attorneys arguing in court and conducting depositions know that our words are preserved in court transcripts; a court reporter makes permanent our every argument—glory or folly. I spoke about Bozo’s style and demeanor in the courtroom with two other attorneys. Between the three of us, we have over 60 years of legal practice. Bozo impresses us as a third-tier salesman in his speech, mannerism, and speaking style— a far cry from what an accomplished attorney would be. I have watched more effective presentations by third year law students arguing in mock jury trials. Ms Anthony would have done better to accept the services of an experienced Public Defender and she may still do so in a re-trial.

Baez should just walk out and let the Perry/Ashton team have it! When the defense’s witness is required to testify the way that the PROSECUTION wants him to, what is the point? The moron was not answering the question he was asked and yet Perry MADE the defense let him run on about whatever he wanted to talk about? Again ALL day we have seen nothing but objection adnausium..and side bar after side bar. Thanks to bi-polar Ashton who jumps up and down like a jack in the box when he is not sitting there licking his lips! What a weirdo!

I do not think Baez experience has one thing to do with the way that Ashton has been acting like a complete idiot during this trial. Any attorney trying to defend their client with a Judge that allows this kind of behavior has no recourse than to stand there and put up with it! The shame is that no attorney should have to be subjected to it! Baez did a much better job tearing down each and every witness the prosection put on! And he did it without a million side bars and objections. He quietly and methodically made their testimony either irrelevant or so implausible that everyone got the point. What Baez did NOT do was jump up and down in his seat, yell across the court room and act like a child in a temper fit! Ashton has even gone as far as to yell at the Judge! and Finally he was reprimanded for that…shock! Shock! The Jose Baez that we are seeing now is someone that realizes that he is in a court room that is being RUN by the prosection and he KNOWS all he can do is show up! When a childs life has been taken and a young mothers life is on the line WE ALL deserve a FAIR and IMPARTIAL JURY and TRIAL PROCEEDING! This is NOT it! While you may really want to see Casey Anthony convicted, (and let me just say personally I have no wish either way) we should ALL want to know the truth and to know the truth and to come to an educated conclusion EVERY single witness MUST be permitted to speak WITHOUT on going interruption which the STATE does to confuse both the Jury, the witness, AND the issues! This DECEIVES us all! And WHEN court proceedings are permitted to do this ANYONE of us can become prey to this unfairness in the court room. Hopefully, you or anyone you love never ends up in a court room, BUT if they did I am fairly certain YOU would WANT your defense attorney to be given the right to defend you or any member of your family without the unfairness that has been seen in this court room.

Well! I guess CASEY did NOT look up the Chlorofom! It was Cindy!!! The STATE just could not jump up and down and keep that out of the court!!! Love it!! But of course HLN is NOW trying to paint Cindy Anthony as a “different” Cindy Anthony?? NOW because she IS telling the truth but it completely refutes everything the Bi-Polar Ashtn and his blonde smerking side kick are trying to get everyone to believe she is no longer the grieving HONEST to the core woman. NOW they are conveniently accusing her of lying to save Casey?? COME ON! They cannot keep changing this to fit thier scenarios! Just this morning their headline was Cindy and George Anthony believe Casey is guilty…yet NOW shes on stand lying when she says SHE made the chloroform searches and the STAIN had been in the back of the car!!!! The STATE is looking like a bunch of idiots. And that happens when they LIE to make the case fit their theories!

I find Jose to be very smug. He does not seem likeable either, he comes off to
me as a know it all. He acts as if he thinks he is right and not realizing he is coming off as out of his league. If Jose was to get a show I wouldn’t watch it. Its hard to listen to him during the trial. If I could turn off the trial until he is done questioning and still know whats going on I would. He boreds me to sleep. Maybe its a guy thing that he doesn’t interest me.
Although I don’t agree with everything Nancy says I still think she rocks and can’t wait to watch her show to hear her opinions.

Casey has got to be put away. To murder a second time is easier. Has anyone thought about that?
