This is a case that begs for an appeal to the United States Supreme Court.

If that happens this conviction is vacated.

Either that or an instant pardon from Trump. Or both.

I hope the man sentenced has the wherewithal to appeal this case or that one of America’s legal aid groups steps in. This is a terrible precedent.

Is that wishful thinking or would he have a good chance of the conviction being vacated? On what grounds?
