People v. Ramirez

Defendant was convicted, after jury trail, of attempted first-degree murder and possession with intent to manufacture-deliver cocaine. Officer testified that when Defendant exited his own vehicle, Defendant pointed gun at him, and that when he watched a video of event, he saw Defendant appear to pull the trigger. Defense counsel failed to object to testimony about video, and actively used that testimony in cross-examination, and is thus invited error. It was a question of fact for jury whether Defendant was aware that gun he pointed had safety on or whether he was unskilled with gun. (TURNER, concurring; POPE, specially concurring.)
