Jury, which reports in Hasskrossbrechen's joke process about the Mayor of Colorado Springs

Denver – The jurors are now reporting in the trial of two Colorado Springs, which are accused of staging a joke of hate crime.

Ashley Blackcloud and Derrick Bernard are in court before the joke, which now threatened Mayor Yemi Mobolade, which leads to the elections to the drainage of 2023 in the mayor.

The prosecutors and defense stated their final arguments on Friday.

After the investigators had announced, the couple was charged to create a video that shows a burning cross in front of Mobolades campaign signs, and sent it to the media to try to achieve sympathy for Mobolade.

The prosecutors argued that both Blackcloud and Bernard lived out a dark imagination and that they thought they helped Mobolades campaign instead of threatening it.

The two points of the jury have to find undoubtedly – was this a conspiracy and was a threat made?

The defense argued that the jury had to determine whether it was a “true threat”.

They claimed that the threat was not true because one of Mobolade's campaign managers believed that it was staged the day after the incident.

The defense also argued that they believe that Mobolade knew that it was a joke because he did not immediately contact the police.

We will continue to bring you the latest details from the trial version. This is a history of development.
