Even if the jury finds that this behavior violates the wacky business records law, they have to rely on a second statute with a longer SOL, which requires the campaign association.

Ok, I think I'm starting to get it.

quote:

"Mr. Trump’s lawyers argued that the New York statute requires that the predicate (underlying) crime must also be a New York crime, not a crime in another jurisdiction. The Manhattan DA responded with judicial precedents only about other criminal statutes, not the statute in this case. In the end, they could not cite a single judicial interpretation of this particular statute supporting their use of the statute," Shugerman wrote.

I guess it all comes down to Bragg's effort to try a federal crime in a state court. The expert also stated there was no previous case of "any state prosecutor relying on the Federal Election Campaign Act,". Thoughts?

I have always said this is the weakest of the criminal cases.
