Bragg’s Pursuit of Trump Violates the Sixth Amendment

[Nostra]

He didn't need to "come up with one". There is already a conviction, that was Cohen.

WW

Oh, so since someone else was charged with a crime Trump can be convicted without listing the crime?

 

[Nostra]

He already has that. Now Trump's legal team will get all that the DA has.

You really just are not very bright at all.

Really? Cite the statute of the underlying crime that makes these misdemeanors felonies.

I am not on the DA legal team nor that of Trump, thus I have no idea.

Unlike you I am not a highly trained legal scholar who knows more than judges and lawyers.

I prefer to just let it all work itself out over the next few months.

This forum is blessed to have so many highly trained legal scholars.

Cohen's federal conviction.

WW

Cohen being convicted is a crime by Trump?

Once again you admit Bragg has no crime to move these misdemeanors to felonies.

That's what teabaggers get for listen to Carlson,Hannity and Trump who know more about laws than anyone on earth.........Just ask them.

1. The defendant DONALD J. TRUMP repeatedly and fraudulently falsified New York business records to conceal criminal conduct that hid damaging information from the voting public during the 2016 presidential election.

2. From August 2015 to December 2017, the Defendant orchestrated a scheme with others to influence the 2016 presidential election by identifying and purchasing negative information about him to suppress its publication and benefit the Defendant’s electoral prospects. In order to execute the unlawful scheme, the participants violated election laws and made and caused false entries in the business records of various entities in New York.
The participants also took steps that mischaracterized, for tax purposes, the true nature of the payments made in furtherance of the scheme.

3. One component of this scheme was that, at the Defendant’s request, a lawyer who then worked for the Trump Organization as Special Counsel to Defendant (“Lawyer A”), covertly paid $130,000 to an adult film actress shortly before the election to prevent her from publicizing a sexual encounter with the Defendant. Lawyer A made the $130,000 payment through a shell corporation he set up and funded at a bank in Manhattan.

This payment was illegal, and Lawyer A has since pleaded guilty to making an illegal campaign contribution and served time in prison. Further, false entries were made in New York business records to effectuate this payment, separate and apart from the New York business records used to conceal the payment.


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.

So whats the federal crime?

Why does there have to be a federal crime in a State prosecution???

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Once again you admit Bragg has no crime to move these misdemeanors to felonies.

Damn, you really suck at reading.

The fact I do not know something does not mean it does not exist.

How did you get to be such a highly trained legal scholar with a reading level below that of a 3rd grader?

 

[WorldWatcher]

Oh, so since someone else was charged with a crime Trump can be convicted without listing the crime?

In the Indictment? Yes.

The other crime though is referenced in the Statement of Facts.

You can be sure that the FDOTUS will have to address it in open court.

[WorldWatcher]

Cohen being convicted is a crime by Trump?

No of course not.

The conviction of Cohen demonstrates the crimes that the FDOTUS was attempting to aid or conceal under Section 175.10 of the New York State Penal Code.

Trump is represented by excellent lawyers.

Name the best one...

 

[Billiejeens]

I agree, would have like to have seen more, however we have to remember this is the Indictment stage not the trial stage.

While the DA is required to turn over all evidence they have gathered to the Defense, they are under no requirement to layout how they will present that evidence at trial.

WW

That is true.

Bragg is a cross between Michael Nifong and Jeff Ashton.

He is a racist piece of shit that due to his (and Soros) hubris has brought charges that he cannot legitimately prove.

The state of NC dismissed the Duke Lacross case and punished Nifong.
The Casey Anthony jury recognized Ashton's folly and decided accordingly.

Todd Blanche is the lead.

Well hell, it is on YouTube so it has to be true.

what has to be true??

#1 Lot's of people have feelings against orange people.

#2 We don't know if he can prove it yet, we are at the Indictment stage, you (nor I) have any idea what evidence will be presented at trial.

(And we may never know if the FDOTUS elects to make a plea deal after his lawyers receive the evidence the DA will be turning over.)

There is literally no victim of this supposed misdemeanor crime.

Yup. They are really stretching with this, and it’s a massive waste of taxpayer money. All because of the non-stop drumbeat of “Get Trump!” over the past six years.

And did you see that evil smirk of Biden’s when he was asked about it?

 

[Harpy Eagle]

what has to be true??
