How can you ascertain if it’s rigged without any knowledge of the charges or the evidence?

Because the SDNY refused this case. Period. Those folks hate Trump with a passion and wouldn't take this case.

There has been leak after leak about this case to preferred news outlets in an attempt to control the media narrative. If there was anything "shocking" or "new" about these charges, we'd have heard them weeks back.


It’s going to be released next week. You can’t wait a few days to form an educated opinion?

We have seen the last 6 years. Open your eyes and really make decisions for yourself instead of CNN telling you. How did CNN get info on charges when indictment is sealed. Duh!


I’m the one waiting on more information to form an opinion, while you have already formed an opinion based on “leaks.”

My favorite part of this is how the party of family values has no problem with their demi-god buying sex from a porn star while his wife is at home with his young child and then trying to paying her off for silence after he decides to get into politics.


Trump's a piece of shite. That doesn't mean he should be arrested for it.

Not a lawyer, but my reading of the attached site leads me to believe the prosecution must prove two elements of a crime to get to a felony conviction.

quote:

An individual “is guilty of falsifying business records in the first degree when he commits the crime of falsifying business records in the second degree, and when his intent to defraud includes an intent to commit another crime or to aid or conceal the commission thereof.” N.Y. Penal Code § 175.10.


And it would seem that mere falsification of a business record is a misdemeanor, not a felony.

It seems to me that there is another element that needs to be proved. Clearly Trump was not doing the bookkeeping so it must be proven that he ordered the payoff to be recorded as an attorney fee.

It seems to me if he had paid the funds out of a personal account and not taken it as a tax deduction, he'd be off scot free.

There is a 23 page list of falsified records cases prosecuted in New York at the link.

NPR had some old colleague of Bragg's on last week. She called his legal theory to charge Trump as "novel".

So some BS is definitely coming.

It's sure to be entertaining.

This is me too.

I'm pretty sure it'll turn out to be just another nothingburger, but the beer's icing down and the corn is popping.
