Sen. Kennedy’s question on legal procedure stumps Biden judicial nominee in front of Senate committee
'Brady motion' compels prosecution to hand over potentially favorable evidence to defense
President Biden trial court nominee Kato Crews was stumped by questioning from Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., during confirmation hearing testimony on Wednesday.

Crews, a nominee for district judge of the U.S. District Court of Colorado, was asked by Kennedy how he would "analyze a Brady motion," with Crews answering that he had not "had the occasion to address a Brady motion" during his four and a half years on the bench.

After stumbling over the answer, Kennedy asked Crews if he knew "what a Brady motion is."
