and what are they saying?
“Judge Sullivan is going thru defense filing, says it raised concerns about whether Flynn still wanted to plead guilty. Flynn lawyer Rob Kelner says they aren’t contesting false statements guilty plea as a result of any misconduct by FBI.” -Evan Perez
The judge twice asked Gen Flynn and his lawyers if they wanted to withdraw the guilty plea. Flynn answered “I would like to proceed your honor.” And the judge announced he’ll accept the plea. What else could he do?
(all according to open thread at CTH)
From what I’m seeing on Twitter the judge spanked Flynn’s lawyers for some of the things in their sentencing memo and made Flynn and them explicitly say that Flynn wasn’t entrapped.
