Thinkerbell As usual you dodged and misled, stinker.
You say
The guilty verdict was overturned on appeal because the prosecution had withheld crucial evidence from the defense.
DEAD WRONG!!! Have you begun penning fiction along with your poesy? Dershowitz got crucial evidence thrown out because it was gathered by a private eye hired by Sonny's children. Without that crucial evidence, conviction wasn't possible. It was a technicality; nothing to do with guilt or innocence.
Dershowitz tells his team that appeals aren’t won on the basis of a defendant’s guilt or innocence but on constitutional issues or procedural faults in the trial.
“If Hitler calls me up, what do I do?” asks Dershowitz, a Brooklyn-born Jewish divorced father, of his son. “Defend him,” says the son, who knows his father well. Among other terrible people, Dershowitz represented Leona Helmsley (Queen of mean) for her appeal of her tax evasion conviction; even claiming she had actually overpaid her taxes. Her conviction was upheld.
Dershowitz is a hired mouth. He'll say anything and spin anything to win a case. Especially outside the courtroom. Sad that your case for tRump hinges on such a flagrant paid prevaricator.
That's why we should always wait until all appeals are exhausted, right Ellie?
DEAD WRONG AGAIN!!! Once convicted, a person is presumed guilty until proven innocent on appeal. That's why many mafia dons have to plead their appeals from prison.
To paraphrase St Ronald of Reagan:
The trouble with our conservative friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so. "Also true of Al Capone's tax evasion case..."
No one else had been prosecuted for tax evasion...? 😂 😂 😂
Nice dodge!!! Do you need new eyeglasses? Are you suffering from tRump-style cognitive decline?? I listed other cases that had been prosecuted for the same crime. Here, let me refresh your memory.
"The law under which Ms. James sued, known by its shorthand 63(12), requires the plaintiff to show a defendant’s conduct was deceptive. If that standard is met, a judge can impose severe punishment, including forfeiting the money obtained through fraud. Ms. James has also used this law against the oil company ExxonMobil, the tobacco brand Juul and the pharma executive Martin Shkreli."BTW, I recall reading that Letitia James has falsified business documents in her real estate transactions.
She identified a place in VA as her principle residence. Perhaps it was at the time. BTW, something I read said falsifying business documents was not a federal crime. Regardless, what LJ may or may not have done wrong has no effect on tRump's falsifications (see below).
"nothing to worry about," as Hochul so aptly put it.
More dodging, stinker. You failed to address the long list of tRump frauds the judge listed. All of them separately prosecutable as criminal cases after the civil case ends. Here. let me refresh your memory again!
"Valuing occupied residences as if vacant, valuing restricted land as if unrestricted, valuing an apartment as if it were triple its actual size, valuing property many times the amount of concealed appraisals, valuing planned buildings as if completed and ready to rent, valuing golf courses with brand premium while claiming not to, and valuing restricted funds as cash, are not subjective differences of opinion, they are misstatements at best and fraud at worst," the judge wrote.
