How have the courts treated the Defendant in this case?

Finally, the jury spent three days deliberating, indicating it was not an open and shut case. (People v. Woods (1991) 226 Cal.App.3d 1037, 1052 [deliberations lasting three days along with request for a readback indicated, if nothing else, an element of uncertainty in the jury deliberations].) Defendants were denied their right to confront, cross-examine, and argue this additional footage with the assistance of counsel prepared to meet the additional evidence. Due process was violated.
