Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis asked a judge on Wednesday to take steps to protect jurors who indicted former President Trump and over a dozen of his allies for their alleged attempts to flip Georgia’s election results in 2020.
I’ve an idea.
how about they, you know… charge trump with witness tampering, and slap some rico charges on the idiots who doxxed them, too. (also provide protection because his followers are zealots who will do anything for the Orange Turd)
The article said the doxxy info was being hosted on a Russian website that doesn’t cooperate with takedown requests. So, that’s the answer to your second suggestion. As for the first, I hope they do. At this point it’s all or nothing for him, so he’s got nothing to lose by racking up more charges. If even one of the ~95 charges against him sticks, he’ll be in prison for the rest of his saggy ass days.
Wouldn’t moving his case to a federal court also mean if he’s found guilty he could be pardoned later? 🧐
IANAL, but my understanding it’s still state charges and possible conviction. Moving it to federal just changes the venue which changes the jury pool which doesn’t benefit him that much. Could delay the trial though. Which we know is his Hail Mary.
Another part of it is that it won’t be televised in Federal Court, but it will be in Georgia state court. I think it scares him that all the evidence against him will be shown live and hard to ignore.
I doubt anyone can actually force Trump to go to prison at any level. He’s a flight risk, for one. He has an angry gun toting mob at his disposal. And, if he wins the presidency again, he will use federal agents to remove himself from any prison and prevent his capture.
It will take huge balls to actually deal with Trump. And America is a land of geldings wearing prosthetic testicles.
No.
Yes. If he or any other Republican is elected, they will pardon him of any convictions at the time and offer blanket immunity (officially or otherwise) for anything he will ever do.
