“I took a nap right before he finally showed up. Wow. They did a number on that guy...”
They certainly did. I left to make a quick dollar store run for the usual cleaning supplies, tissue, etc at around 2:30 because I thought that the hearing was about over and Bradley was almost a worthless witness giving points to neither side due to the constant objections and discussions over privilege.
Wow, was I shocked when I returned 45 minutes later to find Bradley on the stand with his reputation being tore to shreds by the very attorneys who were fighting to protect him when I left just a few minutes earlier.
It’s obvious that all the attorneys KNOW what attorney Merchant was told by Bradley in a conversation which at the time seemed private and just “gossip” and therefore meaningless. I bet they all know what was in that text thread regardless of what they told the judge because Bradley had showed it to them in trial prep.
All the State’s attorneys do not want the judge to know of that complete conversation or for it to be on the record. Therefore, they suddenly turned on him and attacked from all sides. He was clueless and did not expect that attack from “friends” who were so nice to him just earlier today. He made the mistake of thinking they were all on the same side. Bradley thought he was cooperating with his friend’s attorneys and never expected the attack. The attorneys are on THEIR own side (and Fani’s at the moment) because they are part of the “get Trump” crew. Willis could be abandoned if it becomes expedient to do so.
Bradley didn’t want to “cross that bridge” (I believe that was the phrase used in a text message of his) of betraying Fani because it could cost him his law practice and money. He knows that Willis is spiteful and could destroy him in the legal community in Fulton County. Instead, he was the one betrayed.
Just my 2 cents.
