Appeals are always on everyone's mind during a criminal trial.
If evidence shouldn't have been admitted, (and the defense objects) the defendant will have a strong appeal.
In California, all defendants have a right to appeal from adverse rulings in criminal, dependency, and involuntary commitment cases.
So everyone in criminal court knew that later, an appellate lawyer would scrutinize the record.
I know something about this. My job was handling appeals for indigents.
