What does suborne mean???

Sorry. It is spelled suborn (without an "e").

According to dictionary.com it means:

suborn: /səˈbɔrn/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[suh-bawrn] (v)

1. to bribe or induce (someone) unlawfully or secretly to perform some misdeed or to commit a crime.

2. Law. a. to induce (a person, esp. a witness) to give false testimony.

b. to obtain (false testimony) from a witness.

Very good—thank you...I obviously could have looked it up myself or figured it out, but I was just teasing you for using fancy words like suborn.

Is this case definitely going to trial? It would be wonderful if it destroyed Hillary and Bill’s career.

Merry Xmas and Happy New Year!
