He argued that because Moses fired first and because &#8220;to a reasonable medical certainty the first bullet killed&#8221; Hunt, Workman could not be convicted because &#8220;he has fired into the body of a man that is dead and you can&#8217;t kill a dead man.&#8221;<\/span><a name=\"fr_fn_4_3\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberglaw.com\/public\/desktop\/document\/Workman_v_Superintendent_Albion_SCI_No_161969_2018_BL_326277_3d_C?1537183733#fn_fn_4_3\"><b>4<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\"> He made this argument despite Lieberman&#8217;s testimony, which included the opinion that Hunt was alive when struck by Workman&#8217;s bullet. The Commonwealth pointed out that inconsistency. The trial court denied the motion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\">Things only got worse.\u00a0 Trial counsel, who had reserved his opening statement, said only the following after the prosecution case ended and it was time for the defense:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\">Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, you&#8217;ve been very patient for six or seven days. I will inform you now as the judge will later charge you, Jeffrey Workman will not present any evidence. So I&#8217;m opening to you and not saying that we&#8217;re presenting anything. You&#8217;ll get the full impact of that when the judge charges you later in the case. Thank you very much.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\">With no defense evidence, closing statements followed quickly.\u00a0 The alternate \u2018facts\u2019 were then argued:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\">He&#8217;s dead from the first bullet. And when the doctor has \u2014 and this is the last thing I&#8217;m going to say about that \u2014 the unmitigated gall in his position as a Philadelphia medical examiner to come into this courtroom and tell you the man was alive when the ricochet hit him and he doesn&#8217;t know where the ricochet shot comes from . . . at that given point you must conclude that they have not proved their case beyond a reasonable doubt because the doctor&#8217;s testimony is absolutely incredulous.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\">Suffice it to say, this was deemed a denial of the right to effective representation.\u00a0 The Court found an accumulation of errors, all grounded in the notion of \u2018defiance of science:\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\">trial counsel&#8217;s utter and complete failure to test the Commonwealth&#8217;s case with appropriate cross-examination of Lieberman, his failure to present witnesses (either fact or expert) in support of his position, or to adapt his argument to the testimony in evidence instead of simply asserting the contrary statement that &#8220;[Hunt is] dead. He&#8217;s dead from the first bullet.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\">And the result, even under the forgiving standard of presuming counsel\u2019s reasonableness?\u00a0 A complete denial of effective representation:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\">trial counsel acted as an advocate not of his client but of his theory\u2014that one cannot kill a dead man, and therefore the jury could not convict Workman of homicide\u2014all contrary to the facts and testimony before the jury. Any objective standard of reasonableness requires counsel to understand facts and testimony and adapt to them, even at the expense of purportedly clever theories. Workman&#8217;s trial counsel appears to have misunderstood or willfully neglected this when faced with Lieberman&#8217;s testimony. This falls below an objective standard of reasonable performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\">The takeaways are many, but one in particular stands out.\u00a0 Alternate truth may work in the political sphere, but it has no place in the courtroom process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\">[The case is <u>Workman v.
