These are the DC courts, where the book is thrown at republicans and democrats walk.
A jury member who donated to Clinton's campaign and said he would "strive to be objective as possible" was allowed to remain by the Obammy appointed judge. There is also an AOC voter on the jury. You only need one jury member to say there's not enough evidence to convict, and Sussman will walk.
Spoken by someone who has no clue what the job of the alternate jurors is.
