Ahh, the Multiple Choice Felony.
There isn't anything else.

“The multiple choice felony can get him 4 years in prison.”
My understanding from something stated on Newsmax is it could be 4 years PER felony charge. That’s 136 years. Only question is... do the leftists have the ballz to actually do what they’ve been w-dreaming about doing?
WTF??
...Merchan just delivered the coup de grace instruction. He said that there is no need to agree on what occurred. They can disagree on what the crime was among the three choices. Thus, this means that they could split 4-4-4 and he will still treat them as unanimous
When is there a motion to dismiss or motion for a directed verdict? Or are we past that now?

...So a dead misdemeanor for falsifying business records was zapped back into life by alleging that under NY election law 17-152 it was done to influence the election by the unlawful means of falsification of business records. It is so circular as to produce vertigo. So the jury finds some documents were falsified to use the unlawful means of falsifying other documents. That is only one of three possible crimes and the jury does not have to agree on which was the basis for their conviction.
Remember that their ‘backup plan’ may very well include assassination.
I hate to think it, but I wouldn’t pit it past them.
No, not normal in TX (and, other states).
Are you a NY attorney?

Where are you hearing/seeing this?
Thx.

I think victory for Trump is assured either way. If imprisoned, the sympathy factor. If acquitted, he stands vindicated. Democrats are playing a losing hand. They needed an off-ramp, but you know what they say about insanity.
I agree!
Yep.
Saw that.

Dems are on the proverbial horns of a dilemma.
We all know how this will end. Question is “what happens after the phony verdict”?
How will people react and who will stop them from getting away with this?
Oh there is a way. They will say guilty. Biden will spike the football and the house will put pressure on the speaker for an up or down vote on preventing a convict from holding the Presidency. Speaker will pound his fist, say no and then 4 more later he’ll say, we have to make the peoples house function. Predicting these things are easy. What do THEY think we’ll be most damaging to Trump and his chances of winning the Presidency. It’s a straight line from there.
The meaning of the phrase âpyrrhic victoryâ will suddenly dawn on Trumpâs persecutors.
