1
Never let anybody see you sweat.
2
So I was born in New York City, and I lived there until I was eight years old.
3
I realized that I was a much better talker than I was a listener.
4
I don't know what to say, I just don't like what you're saying.
5
Sorry, Your Honor.
6
I ended up going to law school at Georgetown, and then I was a prosecutor for Janet Reno.
7
I loved it, because it was so raw.
8
Were you cheating on her?
9
Yeah, sure.
10
Okay.
11
All rise.
12
Our show will be a mixture of education, I think you're misreading the law a little bit, and entertainment.
13
My main goal is justice and the law.
14
That's been my legacy, and the legacy I hope to continue into the future with the show.
15
Jack Turner claims he was fine when a former tenant left prop grenades and bullets outside her door, which prompted a bomb squad response.
16
Alison Reeves says she left the items for other tenants to take, and a busybody neighbor called the cops.
17
Mr. Turner, you are suing Ms. Reeves for $1,200 in negligence.
18
Tell me what happened here.
19
Basically, Your Honor, Allison had left props in front of her door.
20
Are you her landlord?
21
Excuse me?
22
Are you her landlord?
23
Yes, I was.
24
She's no longer a tenant.
25
Okay, so you own the building.
26
Yes.
27
And she was a tenant for how long?
28
Four years.
29
And then on the night in question, what is it that happened that caused you to get fined?
30
What had happened was, again, she had negligently left props,
31
including eight hand grenades and 250 milliliter bullets right there in the hallway, which first off is not permitted.
32
And that's clearly in the lease.
33
That she can't leave anything in the hallway.
34
Right, exactly.
35
And that's in the lease.
36
And ultimately, it resulted in after the police were called for the bomb squad to come in.
37
And I got charged $1,200.
38
Yeah, isn't that something?
39
When the police come, they then charge you.
40
Yeah.
41
I THOUGHT I WAS PAYING FOR THAT ON THE FRONT END, WITH MY TAXES.
42
BUT THEY WILL ACTUALLY CHARGE YOU AS THE BUILDING OWNER FOR A QUOTE FALSE ALARM.
43
AND WHO IS IT THAT CALLED?
44
ONE OF MY TENANTS HAD CALLED.
45
SHE HAD SEEN WHAT APPEARED TO BE REAL WEAPONS AT THE TIME.
46
IF YOU LOOK AT THEM, I SHOW YOU A PICTURE IF YOU WANT TO SEE IT.
47
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT.
48
I MEAN, THEY LOOK LIKE ACTUAL WEAPONS.
49
SO SHE WAS ALARMED.
50
SHE DID THE RIGHT THING.
51
Exhibit B of the plaintiff, please.
52
Okay.
53
They're pretty real, no?
54
Well, I don't know.
55
I've never seen a real one, so I don't know.
56
Have you ever seen a real one?
57
No. Right. So, um...
58
Well, I watched a few.
59
Yeah, I watched TV, too.
60
These years passed, so it looks pretty authentic to me.
61
What are these doing out there?
62
Your Honor, on the day I was moving out, and while I was moving out, I actually had placed more than just those items outside.
63
I'm not the only person he's trying to make it out like I'm the only person that places items.
64
I actually have like a little group chat because when we're moving out, we have like a little buy nothing group chat where we put things like,
65
hey, we're selling these.
66
We're leaving things out.
67
We also do like gossip.
68
So if you want to see that, I can also show you.
69
That's not a management provided forum, correct?
70
No, it's just like a little group chat that we all have.
71
So there was like, I had put like handbags, some like plastic containers, some like cords and things like that.
72
So as I was moving out, like anybody could just grab what they wanted.
73
Right.
74
You put a sign that said these are fake.
75
If anybody wants these props, you're welcome to.
76
Did you write anything on a piece of paper and stick it on the wall?
77
We live in a digital age.
78
Now you live in a digital age.
79
I mean, you know.
80
No, we do not live in a digital age.
81
There are people who choose not to live in the digital age.
82
I'm not one of them.
83
I live in the digital age.
84
My husband, however, can't turn on the TV.
85
So there are people who just will not be slaves to this.
86
Apparently, the tenant who called the police is one of them.
87
Now, this tenant also, to be fair, is like the most problematic tenant.
88
She will literally call emergency services on everything and is known to.
89
How old is she?
90
Lady, I don't know.
91
I mean, is she an older person?
92
She's in the 60s.
93
I don't consider that old anymore.
94
I don't consider that old either.
95
I never wonder about people's ages.
96
I try to be respectful.
97
We're in Hollywood, right?
98
But calling emergency service versus, like, knocking on my door.
99
There's grenades in the hallway.
100
I mean, like, okay, so I walk up, I go, the hell are these grenades?
101
I mean, yeah, I may not think that I'm gonna be the target of, you know, blowing up the building, but I see that and I say, this seems irresponsible, I don't know.
102
See, here's what happens even in the digital age.
103
Props.
104
Fake.
105
Take one.
106
Yes, and if you see- How long did that take me?
107
It took you like three seconds.
108
Four seconds, right, okay.
109
Yeah, I agree.
110
Especially if you know that there's a nervous Nelly down the hall or whatever.
111
Well, and to be fair, if you see this Discord Buy Nothing group, that's exactly what I said.
112
So you know what needs saying?
113
I was moving.
114
I didn't know where everything was.
115
But I did put it out.
116
Like, that's what everybody does.
117
Like, none of us put notes.
118
We all put it in the hallway.
119
It's kind of just like I've even grabbed stuff from the hallway.
120
But you're not supposed to put stuff in the hallway.
121
Well, and he doesn't ever enforce that.
122
He's going to say he does.
123
I'm not the only one.
124
It is in the lease, right, that you're not supposed to block the hallway.
125
Because that's a fire hazard.
126
And every renewed lease you signed.
127
Let me know if I need to read the lease out loud.
128
But I think you admit that it's in the lease that you're not supposed to put anything in the hallway.
129
Yes, but if it was in the lease, it should be enforced by everybody, but that is not...
130
What kinds of things have you seen in the hallway before?
131
Just when people are moving or...?
132
Just, yeah, you know, when people are getting rid of things, it's hall.. you know, it's L.A.
133
Everybody puts things out in the hallway.
134
Old murder weapons.
135
Old random murder weapons are there.
136
There's even, you know, people put, you know, even the welcome mats.
137
He's telling me that we're not supposed to have anything, but, you know.
138
Coming up on Justice for the People.
139
And he didn't create the situation.
140
You did.
141
And I could have sued for LaVar.
142
No!
143
What about the last thing I said made you think I needed you to join in?
144
Quit while you're ahead. And later...
145
Right, but is that her fault?
146
No, it's not her fault.
147
It's not my fault.
148
She set it in motion.
149
No, yes, she set it in motion.
150
Her saliva set it in motion.
151
And Mai said she would handle our medical bills, and that's all that she would be offering.
152
If you'll be in the Los Angeles area and want to bring your case to court, call 1-888-552-6878.
153
You're watching Emmy nominated Justice for the People of Judge Millian.
154
We're back with the case of Jack Turner, who brought Alison Reeds to court for negligence.
155
Here we are.
156
But they were out there because it was part of my graduate thesis program, and I had done a really beautiful thing, if you want to see what I did.
157
I even have why I had created them.
158
Oh, yes I do.
159
Yeah, you do.
160
I live for the moment.
161
It's a wonderful thing.
162
So I had made these beautiful replicas as part of my whole entire exhibition.
163
You can see all of where I put the little sticky notes that tell you kind of why I did them.
164
Why did you do them?
165
It was for this project in
166
which I wanted to talk about like this onslaught of gun violence in America and how it's coming in like a swarm,
167
you know, and it's just coming in and I just wanted to create this beautiful masterpiece, and that's why I had created them,
168
and I figured by putting them out that somebody else could reuse them, and that's why they were in the hallway.
169
Do you think it's unreasonable of that tenant to have seen a bunch of weapons in the hallway and called the police?
170
I honestly would have never thought that somebody thought they were real.
171
Like, when would somebody come and find those and think they were real?
172
And, Your Honor, who looks at that site?
173
It's alarming.
174
Like, if you see a bunch of grenades in the hall, Well, like, I would say, well, I'm not that important.
175
Why would somebody want to blow this building up?
176
None of us here.
177
But if you saw them, wouldn't you say, geez, what is this?
178
Well, then they could have knocked on my door.
179
They could have checked the app that we could have.
180
Who's they?
181
They were afraid.
182
They don't want to knock on my door.
183
You're the crazy lady with the grenades outside.
184
They could have contacted him versus escalating it to emergency services.
185
And I mean...
186
Well, that's the easiest thing to do is to call 911.
187
Well, and I mean, 911 is the reason that he's getting fined, not because of me.
188
I'm the easiest target right now.
189
The police are the ones that saw the items, and I'm sorry for yelling, but they saw the items, and they thought they were real, and they called the bomb squad. And also...
190
What do you say about that?
191
When the cops came, they were originally scared, but when they found out that it was part of a project...
192
Right, but before that, they were originally scared and called the bomb squad.
193
No, no, no. One negligent cop, okay, one cop, one cop decided...
194
Not only is she a master of craft services now, she's an authority on authorities.
195
Stop screaming and interrupting me.
196
I don't like it.
197
Go ahead.
198
One cop contacted the bomb squad because he went over the supervisor.
199
The other cops were all taking pictures.
200
And they realized that the person had overreacted and that it was just like...
201
So now we have two people who overreact.
202
One, the tenant in the building.
203
Mm-hmm.
204
And two, the police officer.
205
Mm-hmm.
206
Who, I mean, at what point maybe you shouldn't be leaving these props in the hallway?
207
Well, I mean, I just think it was a huge misunderstanding.
208
It is a huge misunderstanding.
209
THE PROBLEM IS THIS HUGE MISUNDERSTANDING, WHICH YOU COST, COSTS HIM $1,200 AND HE WANTS YOU TO PAY IT BECAUSE IT COSTS HIM $1,200.
210
THAT'S $1,200 OUT OF HIS POCKET.
211
AND HE DIDN'T CREATE THE SITUATION.
212
YOU DID.
213
AND I COULD HAVE SUED FOR A LOT MORE.
214
NO. WHAT ABOUT THE LAST THING I SAID MADE YOU THINK I NEEDED YOU TO JOIN IN?
215
QUIT WHILE YOU'RE AHEAD.
216
GO.
217
YOUR HONOR, TO BE FAIR, THAT $1,200 IS NOT MY FAULT.
218
THOSE CAME FROM THE DAMAGES THAT OF CALLING THE EMERGENCY I THINK HE SHOULD BE CONTACTING THE PEOPLE THAT,
219
LIKE, IT'S NOT ME.
220
IT'S NOT ME.
221
BUT IT IS YOU.
222
I DON'T THINK SO.
223
IT'S NOT THE PERSON WHO GOT SCARED WHEN THEY SAW WEAPONS IN THE HALLWAY.
224
IT'S THE PERSON WHO LEFT SUPER REALISTIC-LOOKING WEAPONS IN THE HALLWAY THAT CAUSED THE POLICE TO BE CALLED.
225
AND THEN THE POLICE THAT GET OUT THERE, ONE OF THEM AT LEAST PICKED UP AND CALLED THE BOMB SQUAD.
226
POLICE DON'T USUALLY DISAGREE ON WHAT HAPPENS OUT THERE.
227
I'M NOT SURE ABOUT IT.
228
I'M NOT SURE THEY WERE TAKING PICTURES AFTER THE BOMB SQUAD GOT THERE.
229
I'M NOT SURE THEY WERE TAKING PICTURES BEFORE THE BOMB SQUAD GOT THERE BECAUSE ONE OF THEIR
230
LOT AND THEY USUALLY AGREE ON WHAT THEY'RE DOING CALLED THE BOMB SQUAD.
231
WERE YOU THERE FOR ANY OF THIS?
232
I WAS ALERTED AND I CAME IMMEDIATELY.
233
AFTER POLICE AND BEFORE THE BOMB SQUAD.
234
WAS ANYBODY TAKING PICTURES LIKE HAVING FUN AND TAKING THE SAME TENANT WHO CALLED?
235
THE POLICE.
236
SHE CALLED ME SHORTLY THERE AFTER, YES.
237
THE ONE THAT'S ALWAYS CAUSING ISSUES.
238
SHE LITERALLY...
239
HOW WOULD SHE KNOW THAT, YOUR HONOR?
240
CAN I ASK YOU WHY YOU SAY SHE'S ALWAYS CAUSING ISSUES?
241
TWO EXAMPLES I CAN GIVE OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD.
242
SHE CALLED THE POLICE ON GUESTS THAT WERE JUST THERE FOR A PARTY.
243
SHE CALLED THE FIRE DEPARTMENT BECAUSE SHE SMELLED SMOKE AND IT WAS JUST SOMEBODY'S BARBECUE.
244
SO SHE'S ALWAYS ESCALATING ISSUES WHEN THEY COULD BE RESOLVED, like, internally.
245
Like, all of these things are costing him so many problems.
246
Have any other things ever cost you?
247
N-No, first time.
248
And, by the way, I'm glad that she called the fire department, because how does one distinguish between the smoke from assault and burning and unparter?
249
Call the landlord when she smells smoke?
250
Like, if she smells smoke...
251
Come on.
252
I mean, you know, isn't it better safe than sorry?
253
What if there was a fire going on in your apartment and you weren't there, and everything you owned got burned up?
254
Wouldn't you want her to be the one who called the fire department?
255
I'm just saying that she's known to do this.
256
She should know the difference between a fire and pork.
257
You find her to be a problem.
258
The landlord loves her.
259
She's an early alert system.
260
I'm just saying I'm not responsible for the $1,200 that he's trying to get me for.
261
And I'm just saying I think you are.
262
I think you are.
263
And I'm ruling in favor of the plaintiff in the amount of the $1,200.
264
All rise.
265
Judge Millian has ruled in favor of the plaintiff.
266
The defendant owes $1,200.
267
Any last remarks for each other?
268
I think, uh, Allison, justice has been served.
269
I don't think justice has been served, but if anybody needs hand grenade props, I guess you know where to come.
270
Coming up...
271
What did you do to stop the bleeding?
272
I grabbed a towel and stopped bleeding.
273
I also applied a liquid bandage on her.
274
What's liquid bandage?
275
Liquid bandage is staying.
276
You're watching Emmy-nominated Justice for the People with Judge Millian.
277
Keishawna Crawford claims a deep cut from a rough pedicure at the defendant's salon ruined her vacation.
278
Mai Tran says she offered to pay the plaintiff's medical bill but isn't responsible for her trip.
279
Ms. Crawford, you are suing Ms. Tran for $4,300 that you say you are out as a result of her negligence.
280
Tell me what happened.
281
I have been a customer of tipsy tips for well over two years like most women I have a regular
282
that I go to when I get my manicure or pedicure this day was no different However, my regular technician wasn't there that day and they had a new girl
283
that they were training for pedicures I was resistant at first
284
but because I've been a loyal customer for so long I went ahead
285
and tried out the new girl who seemed to need some
286
more training during the duration of my entire experience She wasn't paying attention.
287
She seemed a bit lost.
288
Next thing I know, she pulled out a cheese grater-looking thing, and I wasn't paying attention because I am so trusting of this salon.
289
While I was looking down at my phone, I felt a cut on my foot or something happening on my foot, and when I looked up...
290
The device that they were using...
291
Yes.
292
It looked like a cheese grater.
293
Yeah, I know.
294
I know.
295
The way you say it, it sounds awful.
296
However, I've had pedicures, so my question to you is this was not a new device to you, right?
297
It's what they use.
298
No, yes.
299
Okay.
300
Yes.
301
Next thing I know, my foot is bleeding.
302
Okay.
303
So profusely that Mai actually had to run in the back and get extra towels.
304
Okay.
305
And extra towels, plural?
306
Yes, towels.
307
Not paper towels, not napkins.
308
Was an ambulance called?
309
No. What did you do to stop the bleeding?
310
I grabbed the towel and stopped bleeding.
311
I also applied the liquid bandage on her.
312
What's liquid bandage?
313
Liquid bandage or something very bad.
314
Well, if it's gonna work, it has to sting.
315
Coming up very small, very minor cut on her foot.
316
She seems to feel that it was a very major cut because according to you, what happened?
317
You're watching and being nominated Justice for the People with Judge Millian.
318
We're back with the case of Keshawna Crawford who is suing Mai Tran for negligence.
319
You would say that this was an accident, right?
320
Like it happened.
321
Tiny, small accident.
322
It's just a very, very small cut.
323
Please wait a second.
324
Go ahead.
325
It's a very small, very minor cut on her foot.
326
She seems to feel that it was a very major cut because according to you, what happened?
327
I had an anniversary trip that I was getting my feet and nails done for.
328
The anniversary trip was two days after the salon.
329
I may not be able to go on the trip because of how bad my foot was hurting.
330
So I did go to the hospital.
331
I received medical attention.
332
I had to receive a tetanus shot, had to be put on antibiotics for at least a week.
333
So that means the entire duration of my trip, I was taking medication.
334
Did not really get to enjoy.
335
Do you have a picture of it?
336
Yes, actually.
337
What I'd like to see is plaintiff's exhibit B.
338
That's a picture of the cut taken at the salon, correct?
339
The minor cut that Mai says I had.
340
That's pretty deep.
341
So how'd the vacation go?
342
It was terrible.
343
It was our first anniversary.
344
We argued the entire trip.
345
Why'd you argue?
346
My husband thought that initially I was overreacting until he realized how much pain that I was in.
347
I did not anticipate this being the reason why we didn't enjoy our vacation, but because of this incident, so many other things were exacerbated,
348
and that's why we're here today.
349
Meaning your husband...
350
Yes.
351
My husband thought I was overreacting, which caused friction in our relationship.
352
Right, but is that her fault?
353
No, it's not her fault, but...
354
It's not my fault.
355
She set it in motion.
356
Yes, she set it in motion.
357
And Mai said she would handle our medical bills, and that's all that she would be offering.
358
That's not enough, considering that's not the extent of the damage that was caused.
359
Because of the way that it was handled, we left saying that we'd see them in court.
360
Judge Milyon's verdict, when Justice for the People returns.
361
You're watching and be nominated Justice for the People, Judge Milyon.
362
That looks pretty deep.
363
You don't think that's deep?
364
You think that's...
365
It's just a minor cut.
366
You think that's a deep one?
367
Yeah, I think after the hospital...
368
Were you limping?
369
I was limping.
370
She went to the hospital, she had to get antibiotics, she was limping.
371
How many towels did her blood require?
372
I think a two to three the most.
373
Okay.
374
Miss Crawford.
375
Yes.
376
I don't think Miss Tran is saying we didn't do anything wrong.
377
I think she's acknowledging that they did something wrong.
378
It was an accident, but her position is that you're entitled to the medical bills, which are only $300.
379
She expects to have to pay for your visit to the urgent care.
380
She doesn't expect to have to pay for your vacation.
381
And no one in her position would have to expect to have to pay for your vacation.
382
I understand why you sued for it, because you truly feel that it ruined your vacation.
383
I get it.
384
But that doesn't change the law.
385
She only has to pay for the reasonably foreseeable outcomes, like missing work, like the urgent care.
386
Not that you and your husband fought, and you couldn't drink, and you really liked to drink, and I'm sorry for what you went through.
387
My verdict is for you, but not in the amount of $4,300, in the amount of the $300 in medical bills.
388
All rise.
389
Judge Millian has ruled in favor of the plaintiff.
390
The defendant owes $300.
391
Any last remarks for each other?
392
You know you were wrong.
393
Okay.
394
Exit this way, please.
395
Make sure you grab all of your belongings.
396

- “negligently” – Die Aussprache dieses Wortes erfordert Aufmerksamkeit, da die Betonung auf der dritten Silbe liegt. Es könnte hilfreich sein, das Wort mehrfach im shadow speech zu wiederholen, um die Aussprache zu festigen.
- “charged you for a quote false alarm” – Der Satz enthält mehrere Schattierungen, die in der gesprochenen Sprache leicht überhört werden können. Durch Englisch Shadowing kann die richtige Intonation erlernt werden.
- “props” – Dieses kurze, aber bedeutende Wort sollte klar ausgesprochen werden, um Missverständnisse zu vermeiden. Eine wiederholte Übung im shadowspeaks Stil könnte hier sehr nützlich sein.
Durch die Analyse und das Üben dieser spezifischen Punkte können Lernende ihre Englische Aussprache verbessern und Selbstvertrauen beim Englisch sprechen üben gewinnen.
Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
