Trump NY Criminal Trial

[Dave_5k]

He can and will appeal if found guilty, right? 🙄

Yes, and also will likely be at least a week or two before a sentencing hearing in any case, with both parties getting to weigh in to the judge on what the sentence should be.

Edit: Gifted article from Washington Post on process of what happens next if he is found guilty (from yesterday):

Hmm lets see what happens

A verdict this quickly, likely to come back guilty?

Any free live streams from news websites?

A longer deliberation would have made a hung jury appear more likely, which appeared to be what team Trump was shooting for. But having reached a consensus already, doesn't look good for team Trump.

A verdict this quickly, likely to come back guilty?

I think so ... A hung jury would mean no verdict. If there is a verdict it is unanimous on all counts (although not necessarily the same verdict for all counts). I'm going with guilty on all counts. I feel like deliberations would’ve been longer if there was a split decision.

Yup never a good sign for the defendant if verdict this quickly

Reporting from inside the courthouse
The judge reiterates that there is a verdict. The jury, at 4:20, asked for a half hour. They are about to come in.

I may need to get some bubblies for when he goes to jail. And I don't drink.


Also, I think he should be put in the NYC Zoo.

It’s hard for me to imagine a verdict returned this quickly that is an acquittal on all counts. The real threat here was a hung jury and that didn’t happen.

I strongly suspect conviction on at least one count and more likely most or all of them.

 

[FelixDeCat]

Lock him up!

 

[eelw]

Okay legal expert confirms it is count 10 for the first cheque he directly signed. So it’s possible a few not guilty initially

 

[iRONic]

I know it is highly unlikely but JFC it would be so chef's kiss if he was remanded into custody immediately after being found guilty.

CNN now running live stream on main website. Jurors now in room (1 min ago)

 

[Muse]

From PlutoTV: No jurors appear to look at Trump as they enter.

 

[Viper1j]

Jury's back! Live on CNN.

GUILTY ON 19 SO FAR!!!

 

[K1052]

Hell yeah

 

[manly]

If sandwiches from Pisillo: I'm going to need a couple weeks with this. Lots to consider.

If sandwiches from Pret A Manger: I'm ready now. Get the judge.

guess the sammiches were only passable.

I may need to get some bubblies for when he goes to jail. And I don't drink.


Also, I think he should be put in the NYC Zoo.

[pete6032]

[Dave_5k]

You sell rotten egg to tourists to cover operating cost of the zoo.
