re: I just served on a jury for the first time.

All trial attorneys know that juries see everything

And we also know that most jurors take their responsibility very seriously.

Jury duty seems pointless to most people. But it’s been my experience that once selected-jurors get serious and want to make sure they follow the law.

All I can say is that I hope the judge in making some disastrous evidentiary rulings - doesn’t make the jury focus on the wrong thing.

All that said, i agree With you with one thing. I think That if Melania would testify for the defense I think it would be over for the prosecution, and not just on appeal.

Melania is a class act, and old school. I think the comparison btwn her and Stormy would put the last nail in Bragg’s
Coffin.

If the defense doesn’t call her - I think it’s a missed opportunity. They could win without her by getting a hung jury, but I think her testifying about how mortified she was about the untrue shite Stormy was saying about her marriage, would result in an acquittal.

My back seat driving / Monday morning quarterbacking / only ever tried civil cases / but definitely had juries find my clients did nothing wrong - 2 cents.

This case isn’t about humanizing Trump. It’s about humanizing Melania - who is the actual victim of Stormy and Cohen’s bullshite.
