ADA Kraus said he knew nothing at all about the 'video magic' for what happened with sending the wrong video to Kyle Rittenhouse's defense team.
In the closing arguments, Kraus's laptop streamed video during the closing, and it showed in his files that he has a copy of the open source transcoding software Handbrake. Screengrab from the Rekieta law stream

She did an interview with ‘Sawspace’ a few months back(you can find the interview pinned on their Twitter page alongside all the others)
So the actress first revealed an extended ending scene which was cut: “We shot a scene at the end of Spiral where I go to Schenks apartment to tell his wife he’s dead…and discovered there was no lovely wife, dog, or child. And then I found the pig.”
Pretty interesting, but then she goes into detail about ANOTHER scene which makes me think there were some rewrite trickery going on during filming:
”There was a scene where I figure out who the killer was at the same time Chris did and I called him to tell him and he just picked up his phone and said ‘I know’ or something. I’m sad it was cut, as it’s kind of a cool story.”
Not only does she describe this separately from the first cut scene above, mentioning it as another cut scene, but the only place such a scene would fit into the story would be at the end…so while her scene in Williams apartment might have been a quick tag after Hello Zepp…are we really expecting that they’d write in another scene of her calling Zeke? Seems like an awful lot to put into the climax of your film, especially after Hello Zepp.
Honestly, the way she described this as being totally separate from the apartment scene, I think this shows there were onset rewrites to push Williams reveal to the end of the film. It’s a conspiracy theory, sure…
…but if you told me they were indeed forced to push his reveal to the end of the film and had to rewrite the film on the fly as a result, it literally would make so much about how and why the film turned out the way it did make sense. It literally makes too much sense to think this is what happened.
Look, I know that fans will downvote those to hell, but can we agree that this is essentially two (accomplished) singers letting others do the heavy lifting. Songs are “chosen” and reconstituted. No risks are being taken, no barriers broken or crossed. In a world filled with lucrative remakes substituting for originals this fits right in and reinforces the model. Over a decade ago Eric Clapton did the same thing with his “Unplugged” album and it made him rich(er). Who knows what will be remade in ten more years. Let’s stop coasting and start pedaling, artists.
Ted Talk over.
