Judge Instructs Jurors They Need Not Believe Trump Is Guilty To Convict Him

[Weatherman2020]

NEW YORK, NY — As the criminal trial involving former President Donald Trump winds to a close, the presiding judge instructed jurors that they don't have to believe Trump is guilty to convict him.

The reminder from Judge Juan Merchan was issued to the jury as closing arguments began, with the judge clarifying that Trump doesn't necessarily have to be guilty of a crime in order for the jury to find Trump guilty of a crime.

"Don't get hung up on whether or not he's ‘guilty' of anything," Judge Merchan instructed jurors. "Words like ‘guilty' or ‘innocent' or ‘evidence' are really just for show, anyway. The important thing is that you listen to the closing arguments with an open mind and an unwavering commitment to handing down a guilty verdict. Remember, believing Trump is guilty is not important. Declaring him guilty — that's what you're all here for."

As the trial neared its end, media, politicians, celebrities, and the general public all eagerly awaited the outcome. "Judge Merchan has run a very strict courtroom," said one legal analyst. "Not allowing any type of shenanigans, reasoned arguments, or clear evidence to be present during the trial was a bold choice, and now he's making sure the jurors are aware that believing Trump to be guilty has no bearing on convicting him of the charges. An impressive stance from a judge to say the least."

At publishing time, Judge Merchan had reportedly informed bailiffs to be ready to handcuff Trump and escort him to jail regardless of whether or not the jury found him guilty.

This judge is wicked and should be jailed himself. No need to find him guilty. How can anyone who is a real American vote for Biden or any Democrat ever again. This is like it’s okay to put Blacks back into slavery because we don’t have to prove they aren’t real human.

observations from inside the courtroom--

Joshua Steinglass notes that Trump himself has, several times in several places, “admitted” that the payments to Cohen were reimbursements, not payments for legal services. This would not be a devastating argument if the defense had proposed an alternative theory of the case. But given that the defense has argued the $420,000 sent to Cohen was in fact a payment for legal services, these admissions from Trump himself are not good for the former president and his legal team.

That's much closer to fact than Satire, unfortunately. Merchant should not be allowed to judge anything except pies at the county fair. He is an abomination to US Justice.

Smith hasn't attacked Cannon, nor her daughter or son, so what are you talking about....? He's been professional, in all of his appearances in the public, and behind the scenes. So, what gives, Kitty?

Does Cannon have a daughter or son raising money on convicting Biden?

 

[Care4all]

Does Cannon have a daughter or son raising money on convicting Biden?

Well, that's kinda a big fat lie created and produced by Trump and trumpers..... She partly owns a marketing firm used mostly by Democratic candidates and has done this work for years. Long, long long before Bragg's indictment of Trump.

Trumpers hacked her Facebook account of which she had closed over a year ago, and inserted negative posts and pictures of Trump they claimed were hers, but were forgeries....you, my dear, have a lot of trumpers who are crooks and creeps, doing this shit.

And if cannon had a daughter in marketing who Republican candidates hired as marketing agents for the past decade do you actually think President Biden would act like the thug and maniac TRUMP and go out there and scream to the crowd to work them up every day and harass her and wish and put harm and a target on her back,

as Trump has done?

Do YOU really think Biden would act like the classless, thug and Crooked Donald?

Um democrats are trying to get a SCOTUS Justice to recuse over his wife flying a flag. And Biden will do whatever his handlers tell him to do. The Biden family repeatedly acts like classless thugs, most recently with Jill calling people who don't vote for Joe evil.
