Same goes for all people and not just our Dear Leader , like I am not bothered about Vladimir Putin and how much he weighs . Maybe you need to question why you take such an interest in our Dear Leader (and his weight)? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bkk Brian Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Interesting, this co defendant apparently couldn't raise the money. Is the big guy going to help out? Trump co-defendant denied bond, held in jail One of the defendants in the Georgia election fraud racketeering case was denied bail on Friday and will now remain at the Fulton County Jail pending further proceedings. Prosecutors allege Floyd harassed and pressured a Georgia poll worker over false election fraud claims. Floyd represented himself and was the only one of the case’s 19 defendants not to organize a bond agreement with state prosecutors before turning himself in. https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4172605-trump-co-defendant-denied-bond-held-in-jail/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Stargeezr Posted August 26, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 26, 2023 I will be happy when I see pictures of Donald Trump wearing prison orange, or pink if he goes to Arizona. He is one criminal that deserves jail time, I am not surprised that he has so many followers though, in America and other places many people follow other bad people.

So far it's only claims by the usual anti Trumpers. Remember, Trump is innocent till PROVEN guilty in a court of law. Wow so you seem to think that the national archives, the fbi, the doj and trump himself all just made up the idea that classified docs were in trumps possession............did u listen to dear leader on tape bragging about having classified docs in his hand and saying "i could have declassified but now i cannot"....getting kinda dark down in the rabbit hole? 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDUX Opinion Trying Trump under the Espionage Act will be trickier than you think June 21, 2023 at 7:15 a.m. EDT Baruch Weiss, a former federal prosecutor in the U.S. attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York, is a partner at Arnold & Porter and a criminal defense lawyer who handles Espionage Act cases. The charges in the indictment against Donald Trump might seem simple: Trump finished his term as president, became an ordinary citizen, yet retained 31 classified documents that, under the Espionage Act, he should have returned to the government upon demand. He compounded his wrongdoing by lying and obstructing. But as a former federal prosecutor and a defense attorney who has handled Espionage Act cases, I can tell you that prosecutions under that law are tricky.

I am curious to know if u are convicted of a felony and sentenced and want to appeal are u allowed to stay out of jail til all appeals are exhausted or do u have to sit in jail until if/when a repeal might reverse the conviction? Maybe different if state or fed? Anybody know for sure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerrymahoney Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 (edited) Federal law allows bail pending appeal for certain convictions if the judge is clearly convinced the defendant won't flee or harm someone and the appeal has a good chance of being successful. (18 U.S.C. § 3143.) https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/can-i-bail-while-i-appeal-conviction.html and from that statute: (B) that the appeal is not for the purpose of delay and raises a substantial question of law or fact likely to result in— (i)reversal, (ii)an order for a new trial, (iii)a sentence that does not include a term of imprisonment, or (iv)a reduced sentence to a term of imprisonment less than the total of the time already served plus the expected duration of the appeal process.

pomchop Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 so it would appear to me that if trump were to be convicted of different felonies in different cases and wanted to appeal it all forever that each conviction would be treated differently and all it would take to keep him in jail on a fed conviction is a judge who rules the appeal is BS with little chance of winning...i assume below by judge that means the original trial court judge? Convincing the judge that you’re likely to win your case and avoid jail time is often the most difficult part of getting out of prison while your federal criminal appeal is pending. You have to prove to the judge that the court got it wrong the first time. You have to provide a good reason for him or her to believe that when you appeal, you’ll win.

Whether the original charges are frivolous or not, they were properly executed by a grand jury. The results of the trial can be challenged if there was one or more constitutional rights denied. And the jury instructions in a federal conspiracy case can be quite complex and can be challenged if not properly met by the jury. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bkk Brian Posted August 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 27, 2023 Just two in five Americans say these indictments are “witch hunts”. NEW POLL: Whopping 62% Say Trump ‘Committed a Crime’ In Poll Released Amid Mugshot Furor More than three in five Americans believe that Donald Trump has committed a crime (net +32; 62 percent committed a crime – 30 percent did not commit a crime), including independents by 49 points (67 percent committed a crime – 18 percent did not), nine in ten Democrats (net +87; 92 percent committed a crime – 5 percent did not), and nearly three in ten Republicans (net -33; 28 percent committed a crime – 18 percent did not). Roughly seven in ten Americans — including similar shares among independents — believe that the indictments brought so far against Trump are serious, and about 60 percent say the same about whether they are legitimate investigations compared to just two in five who say they are “witch hunts,” with little differentiation based on the charges asked about: https://www.mediaite.com/news/new-poll-whopping-62-say-trump-committed-a-crime-in-poll-released-amid-mugshot-furor 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bkk Brian Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 This is particularly relevant due to the breaking news a few hours ago where Three Black people were killed in a hate-motivated shooting at a Dollar General retailer in Jacksonville, Florida. How Trump’s attacks on prosecutors build on history of using racist language and stereotypes NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump’s aggressive response to his fourth criminal indictment in five months follows a strategy he has long used against legal and political opponents: relentless attacks, often infused with language that is either overtly racist or is coded in ways that appeal to racists. The early Republican presidential front-runner has used terms such as “animal” and “rabid” to describe Black district attorneys. He has accused Black prosecutors of being “racist.” He has made unsupported claims about their personal lives. And on his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump has deployed terms that rhyme with racial slurs as some of his supporters post racist screeds about the same targets. https://apnews.com/article/trump-race-georgia-indictment-new-york-prosecutors-04b69a8f3e4873eadb03c132cdee09c8? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to agree with it. It is exactly that, an opinion. What's notable is that he didn't address the elephant in the room. Keeping classified documents isn't such as serious offense. Disseminating the information from them to people without security clearances is the actual offense of espionage rather than just retaining the documents. And when those are nuclear secrets all the more egregious and easy to prove.. Edited August 27, 2023 by ozimoron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
