Are they serious?? (GA indictment of Trump)

"If you don't see the corruption" in Trump, "you're being willfully blind."

 

Just asked how you thought the jury was swayed. Didn't question whether the law needed to explain anything. Though I'd add for a crime to even be a crime, as a matter of law, you have to have intent.

Something isn't corrupt in a specific instance because generally criminality or corruption exists. That isn't how it works. There are other plausible reasons for this to have occured, and I'd argue that the likely reason is a mistake. Your argument as to why otoh doesn't make sense with even a little bit of scrutiny because there would be no benefit. Plus, such mistakes are not exactly uncommon in the age of the internets.

 

Think whatever you want.

Either Trump is corrupt . . . . or all the federal and state officials, all the federal and state prosecutors, all the federal and state judges, and all the grand juries in multiple jurisdictions are corrupt.

There is overwhelming evidence that Trump is corrupt. There is no evidence whatsoever that all those other entities are corrupt. You remain willfully blind to this.

 

They had to have documentation prepared in advance for the jury to review and also to the. Present to the judge. If they voted something down, then it is noted the same way as voting for.

Someone in the clerk’s or DA’s office screwed the pooch in scanning stuff in and allowing it go go live.
Makes them look like idiots, but, unfortunately it is a fairly common occurrence.

But hey, much more important than the actual information. Squirrel!

 

I'm sure you're equally concerned about Trump's blitzkrieg of public jury tampering
and threats to prosecutors, judges and juries.

My argument wasn't about the ongoing unprecedented affair of a former president being indicted--how many times now(?)--but the not exactly uncommon occurrence of posting things online by mistake.

A few examples from recent years...

San Mateo Court Accidentally Posts Settlement Documents for San Bruno Explosion
Trump team accidentally released documents that showed the benefits of national monuments like Utah’s Bears Ears
After Alex Jones’ lawyers accidentally leak years of emails, Infowars financial documents are revealed in court
The Justice Department Accidentally Released the Name of Saudi Official Suspected of Helping the 9/11 Hijackers
White House mistakenly identifies CIA chief in Afghanistan

What I am also saying is that your argument doesn't make a lot of sense given that there is no plausible reason as to how Willis' prosecution would benefit.

 

It's highly unlikely that the leak tampered at all with the GJ. As far as we know, the GJ was already convened and hearing evidence in order to choose to indict or not when the leak went online. If this was the case, then nobody on the GJ likely knew what had happened. The GJ is seated at 9:00 AM, and is usually dismissed by 5:00 PM, unless there are mitigating circumstances. The earliest the story on the leak I can see is 3:00 PM.

Someone else can confirm, but in most courtrooms, cell phones are not allowed. Most courts have lockers and juries cannot access while being seated.

The leak was likely someone who was preparing the the release and instead of putting it live on a dev site, put it on the live site early. It could be an anti-Trumper who just wanted to gloat early. It could just as easy been a pro-Trumper who wanted to throw a curve ball into the proceedings and give Trump cover to call a mistrial before the trial ever got off the ground? We may never know.

Bottom line, it's highly unlikely, given the timeline, the leak affected the GJ at all.

 

One more thing . . . . Most of the witnesses against Trump are REPUBLICANS, not Democrats!!! You are willingly blind to this as well.

 

Maybe SCOTUS can reconvene their leak task force.

 

Your OP alluded to possible jury tampering. How is mentioning Trump's very public jury tampering changing the subject?

 

The systems are functioning properly. Ignoring his crimes due to his political standing would be a failing of the system.
