Bragg’s Pursuit of Trump Violates the Sixth Amendment

[jc456]

So trump has nothing to worry about.......LOL
Just take the stand under oath Donald, and tell us your version of the truth.
The truth shall set you free.

He’s not worried. You didn’t see his presser. Hahaha

 

[jc456]

Dude...you've been arguing with yourself for pages.

No one knows what the fuck you are going on about

The better question is what are you talking about?

 

[Lisa558]

Wrong again. Damn...you're qrong a lot. He was indicted for fraudulently altering financial records in furtherance of a Federal crime committed in 2016. That fraudulent alteration is a state felony.

Now you now better. Don't make that "mistake" again

But that is just a misdemeanor. He is using a so-called Federal crime to elevate it to a felony. LOTS of pretzel-twisting on this one, and it simply doesn’t add up.

A minor misdemeanor, if that, is being twisted around to a felony while the same DA works to downgrade violent felonies, with actual victims, to get more dangerous thugs back on the streets.

You can’t make this stuff up.

 

[Winco]

Hahaha the law is so confusing for you

I know you are scared to death of trump taking the stand.
His Colonel Jessup moment is coming if he actually takes the stand.

 

[Winco]

So trump has nothing to worry about

He’s not worried.

That's what I said.
Why is your reading comprehension so inadequate?

But that is just a misdemeanor. He is using a so-called Federal crime to elevate it to a felony.

When you fraudulently alter financial records to aid a felony...that alteration is ITSELF a FELONY

These are felony charges

 

[Lesh]

Bump into a bank guard and if anything it would be a misdemeanor.

Do it during a robbery and it's assault and battery

In 2020 and 2021.

Four visits ... New York.​

Wikiwand - List of presidential trips made by Donald Trump (2020–2021)

This is a list of presidential trips made by Donald Trump during 2020 and early 2021, the final years of his presidency as the 45th president of the United States.

And:

NYCLU Statement on Planned Trump Visit to Long Island - NYCLU

www.nyclu.org

So no, no 'without interruption', so no tolling of the SoL.

The last act in the indictment was in December of 2017. Five year statute of limitations would have ran out in December of 2022. Trump's last visit to New York was in March of 2021 as far as I can tell. Tolling started then and only stopped yesterday. The SOL would have ran out in August of this year.

Or picked up a dictionary

I swear, why is it so damn difficult to read the Statement of Facts?

4. After the election, the Defendant reimbursed Lawyer A for the illegal payment through a series of monthly checks, first from the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust (the “Defendant’s Trust”)—a Trust created under the laws of New York which held the Trump Organization entity assets after the Defendant was elected President—and then from the Defendant’s bank account. Each check was processed by the Trump Organization, and each check was disguised as a payment for legal services rendered in a given month of 2017 pursuant to a retainer agreement. The payment records, kept and maintained by the Trump Organization, were false New York business records. In truth, there was no retainer agreement, and Lawyer A was not being paid for legal services rendered in 2017. The Defendant caused his entities’ business records to be falsified to disguise his and others’ criminal conduct.
There are so damn many idiots in this thread that don't have the common courtesy, let alone enough self-pride, to read the damn Statement of Facts. Your stupid question at the end of the post is just one clear example. Had you read the Statement of Facts you would have known the answer.

Another is this bellowing about "what crime, what crime". From the SOF,

7. During and in furtherance of his candidacy for President, the Defendant and others agreed to identify and suppress negative stories about him. Two parties to this agreement have admitted to committing illegal conduct in connection with the scheme. In August 2018, Lawyer A pleaded guilty to two federal crimes involving illegal campaign contributions, and subsequently served time in prison. In addition, in August 2018, American Media, Inc. (“AMI”), a media company that owned and published magazines and supermarket tabloids including the National Enquirer, admitted in a non-prosecution agreement that it made a payment to a source of a story to ensure that the source “did not publicize damaging allegations” about the Defendant “before the 2016 presidential election and thereby influence that election.
And the Trump legal team is a bunch of incompetent fools. For instance, during the Grand Jury proceedings they trotted out the "Keep it from Melania" defense. That would not have dismissed the charge, but it could have prevented it from rising to a felony. It is not a crime to pay hush money to keep a secret from your wife. But the Statement of Facts obliterates that defense,

The Defendant directed Lawyer A to delay making a payment to Woman 2 as long as possible. He instructed Lawyer A that if they could delay the payment until after the election, they could avoid paying altogether, because at that point it would not matter if the story became public.

I mean for the love of God, Trump don't know how to keep his mouth shut.

But here is the news that no one is talking about. Trump has hired Todd Blanche, a former prosecutor in New York and a white-collar criminal defense lawyer. But he don't "defend", he settles, as he did in the Manafort and Fruman cases. I fully expected a plea deal all alone. That is Trump's best option.

Is that the words of convicted serial liar and perjurer Cohen?

In a weird sense you are correct.

If it was just Cohen’s testimony it would be suspect.

It’s much more than that

 

[jc456]

That's what I said.
Why is your reading comprehension so inadequate?

I confirmed

Bragg has charged Trump with falsifying business records (a misdemeanor past the statute of limitations) and the “intent to commit a future more serious crime” (the unarmed felony).

Trump has a right to know what this unnamed future crime he intends to commit is. Otherwise, the Democrats could arrest me, and every Trump voter, on the grounds that we intend to commit a felony in the future.

The case against Trump is unconstitutional and should be tossed. Bragg should be disbarred for using the power of his office, along with his personal hate for a citizen, to violate that citizen’s Sixth Amendment Rights. And Biden should be insisting on that, instead of that evil smile when asked about it.

Sixth Amendment

Most legal experts are saying the indictment is flawed on it's face for the fact that it fails to state a crime.

It’s much more than that

like what else?

 

[struth]

Bump into a bank guard and if anything it would be a misdemeanor.

Do it during a robbery and it's assault and battery

assault and battery is a misdemeanor. Thanks

 

[AZrailwhale]

The DA in NY did and can.

No he hasn't he refers to one in every count of the indictment, but never enumerates it.

 

[struth]

When you fraudulently alter financial records to aid a felony...that alteration is ITSELF a FELONY

These are felony charges

what's the felony that was aided? Bragg has failed to state it in the indictment

 

[FranklinRoosevelt_FTW]

There is no crime ..34 counts of the same charge based on hysteria , politics, and racism by Bragg

 

[AZrailwhale]

There does not have to be, they know this....you on the other hand think you know more than actual lawyers and judges.

Did you even graduate high school?

Even liberal lawyers are saying there is no underlying crime listed and it is necessary.

 

[struth]

Damn, I wonder why Trump's lawyers did not think of this

they have, they are filing motions

 

[struth]

sigh....read the next couple of words..."committed as follows:" that's where the indictment is suppose to lay out the the acts that violated the Penal Code....you know the crime...Bragg failed to do that, the indictment is flawed on it's face.
