Donald Trump is the real defendant here. Paul Manafort is only the pawn, and this case should never have been prosecuted by the Justice Department, as it relates to a problem with taxes, and properly should have been acted upon by the IRS.
“Donald Trump is the real defendant here. Paul Manafort is only the pawn...”
Very true.
If just one member is a trump fan, has balls and understands jury nullification, and the rest want to convict, it will be hung.
And if that one juror were really smart, they would keep their mouth shut.
In this day and age, a juror that was not aware of what was truly happening would be too simple to be worthy of having on a jury. We bring our knowledge with us and can not help but listen to a case in that perspective.
