It seems that some of the footage we’ve seen of some of the GA defendants’ “proffers” (their testimony in exchange for reduced sentencing) were not intended to be public.
Fani Willis is seeking a Protective Order to lock this shit down:
The Hillsuggests that Individual-ONE might decide to castle (not that he would know what that means) by firing his legal team, in order to drag out the trials. The article suggests that one of the judges could respond with the thermonuclear option, if his replacement team is not up to speed in two weeks, by remanding the defendant to custody.
My question is, could the court, in such a situation, appoint a public defender and enjoin him from dismissing them?
Jenna Ellis gave a ‘hearsay’ (ETA: may be an exception to the Hearsay Rule) statement in her proffer, saying that (Trump’s former deputy chief of staff and long-term social media aide) Dan Scavino told her (Ellis):
The boss is not going to leave under any circumstances. We are just going to stay in power.
Scavino could now be the next contestant on The Price is Right!!
in the prosecuting donald trump podcast, andrew weissman notes that judge cannon’s latest rulings will have an impact on the ga trial. the judge is holding on the trial date, while delaying other deadlines. there is a march hearing where she may move the trial date, but it will be too late for willis to use the date.
