You know full well that the Judge did not allow in testimony that he felt would "confuse" or support the defendant.

That was opinion testimony, not factual testimony.

And I think once unanimity is required, that becomes moot.

However, given the judge didn't require unanimity, I think the expert opinion testimony should have been let in (although, as stated above, it will likely be rendered moot).

The crime he was convicted of was Falsifying business records in the first degree


I'm guessing those laws didn't apply with Bill Clinton's payouts.

When it is not, you will be here arguing that it was a just verdict.

Cohen would not have been involved in journal entries. His flat charge could be considered additional over billing considering doing so afterwards and being caught. That determination of jury as you mentioned would be done but for defense purposes unless jury was kept from hearing and understanding which is what happened.

This was a showboat of DEI , Soros and DOJ henchmen


Nailed.

Short and sweet spot-on observations of a non-Kangaroo courtroom determining actual justice in allowing the routine plausible benefit of doubt by the defense.

We don't know what the jury relied on, specifically, but there are multiple potential options.

This sounds like a jury was given the names of all the people murdered in a city on a given day and told we believe the defendent killed one of them, since he was in the city that day, so just pick one and convict.

Judges have way too much power.

I’ve said that for years. Now you’ve got rogue ones publicly flaunting and abusing said powers.

That’s like if I could buy SFP for what he’s worth and then turn around and sell him for what he THINKS he’s worth, I’d be in St Barts right next to you on my own yacht on the difference.

It was legal error to advance the case to the jury on the showing made.


Truth.

It's almost as though "legal errors" and "constitutional" are suddenly purely partisan confections (thanks to a feckless GOP playing deaf, dumb & blind, hanging Trump out to dry since 2017).

You don't think that's going to cause an issue with the public? We'll never know what underlying crime a former President was convicted of? That's not going to do much in the way of convincing everyone this was on the up and up.

Again, did you not keep reading?

That will likely lead to the conviction being overturned and the case being remanded back to the trial court for re-trial.

That's not going to fix any of the mistrust a lot of the public has with the judicial system. It shouldn't even have to be going to the appellate court.

Didnt totally catch what it was he found, but apparently Hugh Hewitt found some kind of "talking to" Merchan received that was sealed. Not sure the specifics but something enough for him to start to agree with people that he should of step away from the case.

CNN’s Chief Legal Analyst says these charges are a historical first in the US. It’s never happened. It’s almost like the charges were curated for Trump only? Lol.

Honig declared the charges against Trump are "obscure, and nearly entirely unprecedented."

quote:

"In fact, no state prosecutor — in New York, or Wyoming, or anywhere — has ever charged federal election laws as a direct or predicate state crime, against anyone, for anything. None. Ever," Honig wrote.

You idiot he personally did not falsify business records. An out of date charge way past the statute of limitations. He was convicted of running against the guy whose depends your adore smelling and whose balls you love to wash.

So you never took the time to read the transcripts of the trial. Go FuQ yourself. Hey I hear kicking the crap out of Biden supporters is getting to be a thing. People have had enough of lying low life leftist POS. You should stay in your Gramma's basement.
