Jury Instructions Are Very Favorable To Donald Trump Prosecutors—Attorney
Published May 30, 2024 at 7:47 AM EDT

 

Greg Germain, a professor at Syracuse University College of Law in New York, said Judge Juan Merchan's instructions to the jury, before they began deliberations on Wednesday, did not explain that the falsified documents at the center of the case related to crimes that Trump allegedly committed.


"The judge let the prosecution have multiple theories: tax fraud, campaign finance violation, or another document falsified, and didn't make it clear how the fraud and separate crime must relate to the documents charge," Germain told Newsweek.


"The jurors asked to hear the jury instructions again. The jury instructions are so favorable to the prosecution, and so unclear about what the jurors have to find to convict, that I expect they are very confused about what the case is about," Germain said.

 

Germain said that the judge has let the prosecution offer far too many theories on why there are falsified documents in the case.

Ask two professors of Law for an opinion and you will get at least five responses.....quoting one professor's opinion is pretty pointless.

The issues raised by Professor Germain regarding Judge Merchan's jury instructions give some indication of likely elements of Trump's future appeal.

So many of the Trump fans here are not US citizens, it isn't hard to see how the election will pan out. The foreigners can't vote.

 

The US citizens here tend to oppose Trump.

 

The question is why the foreigners here love Trump so much (or oppose Biden). It's not their country. It's almost as if they have some allegiance to another leader in another country who would benefit if Trump won the election.
