Trump’s Georgia prosecutor is not being truthful

Alan Dershowitz

The Georgia prosecutor who indicted Donald Trump and 18 co-defendants – yes, she indicted them, the grand jury merely rubber-stamped – has said she will try to bring the case to trial within six months. I have been practicing criminal law for 60 years, I have never seen a trial with 19 defendants, a 90-plus page indictment and this degree of complexity brought to trial in anywhere close to six months. It simply can’t happen.

Why then did she begin this case, which is about lying, by misleading the American people? Because to her, this case seems entirely political. Is she using it to run for office, or is she bringing it to garner favor with other Democrats?

This sprawling indictment rests largely on the so-called RICO law – a law that was designed to prosecute and bankrupt members of organised crime. I recall a client of Italian American heritage complaining that the law was targeted at the mafia: “Why else would they call it RICO instead of Morris or John?” He was being perceptive.

Subsequent to its enactment, the RICO law became a favorite of prosecutors, although many RICO convictions were later overturned on appeal. It turned out that RICO prosecutions were more appealing to jurors than they were to judges. That is because jurors want to convict racketeers, while judges need to apply the law fairly. more

  2. I’m shocked, shocked I say that a “highly qualified, professional, ethical, upstanding, Black, strict upholder of the law government official” would do anything for political reasons in direct violation of the Constitution. Bullshit. These low IQ leftist tools lack the intellect to understand just how dangerous and destructive their actions are for this country. We are witnessing the most dangerous time this country has ever seen since its formation. People better wake up and put a stop to it before all is lost forever. Question is; how? The left is so entrenched and has garnered so much power through the media and deep state that there appears to be no way to resolution. I see little hope for the future.

  3. Notice that some of the prosecutors are Affirmative Action? Soros picked prosecutors too stupid to know the difference between right and wrong. They will do whatever he asks. To Soros, these fools are expendable. These prosecutors are risking their Law licenses, could wind up broke and in prison. But they’re too stupid to figure that out.

  4. DA’sare supposed to try cases according to law and be impartial, certainly not allowing their political leanings to affect the case.
    None of that here to be seen, rendering any judgement flawed.
    This isn’t even a case.
