SKIP TO CONTENTBeing a lawyer means encountering cases that are both challenging and unforgettable. One case, in particular, stands out as a testament to how crucial detailed investigations and creative approaches can be in ensuring justice. Watch as attorney Bryan Garrett recounts one of his most memorable cases.
The Case of Social Media Evidence
A few years ago, I handled a case involving a high-speed head-on car collision. With no witnesses and little clear evidence, proving fault seemed daunting at first. However, by meticulously examining the other driver’s social media accounts, I uncovered crucial evidence that turned the case around.
On the driver’s Instagram account, I found a video taken just 30 minutes before the crash. The video showed the driver in his workplace kitchen, smoking a joint before preparing to make a delivery. This footage not only placed him at work but also indicated impairment while on the job. Additionally, his social media history was filled with videos of reckless behavior, including driving at dangerous speeds, drinking while behind the wheel, and partying irresponsibly. One clip even showed him consuming alcohol while speeding at 80 miles per hour.
This social media evidence became a cornerstone of the case, demonstrating a pattern of unsafe and negligent behavior that supported our claims.
