Because they are two different screen shots taken as different times.

One is obviously from a cell phone, one is from a computer.

Well, the courts and lawyers will get to the bottom of it. What wasn’t restricted apparently was his cousin’s thoughts on the case.

Why do you think he has a cousin that is a juror when his own media says he's a troll and a shit poster? You believe one thing he said but not the other?

Or you * * want * * to believe the first but not the second?

Because he said he was his cousin. Internet trolls can have cousins…[and more over I don’t even know if that the cousins real Facebook account

Well, this is interesting.

If true, it should lead to a mistrial. Merchan took it seriously enough to give a heads-up to both sides.

Or is there something else out here and this is the old three card monte at work?

​

Questions have surfaced regarding the jury in former President Donald Trump's New York City hush money trial after the presiding judge flagged a post to social media alleging that a juror had spoken about Trump's verdict before it was handed down.​

​

According to New York State Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan's letter, which was sent to Trump lawyer Todd Blanche and Manhattan District Attorney Prosecutor Joshua Steinglass, a comment was left on the New York State Unified Court System's Facebook page by a user under the name "Michael Anderson," who wrote, "My cousin is a juror and says Tump is getting convicted. Thank you folks for all your hard work!!!!"​

​

The comment was in response to a post by the court on May 29, a day before the former president was convicted of 34 felony counts in connection to hush money paid to adult-film actress Stormy Daniels during Trump's 2016 presidential campaign. Merchan wrote that as of Friday, Anderson's comment was "labeled as one week old."​

​

It is unclear if Anderson is related to one of the 12 jurors who served on Trump's case, or if the comment was posted online prior to the former president's conviction on May 30. Several Trump supporters suggested on social media that the comment was grounds for a mistrial.​
