She asks the prosecution and the defense to submit how a jury would be instructed in such a case, and sytates that any jury WILL see the documents in question.


The media won’t report that. This seems reasonable . If I were on a jury I’d like to see what it is they are claiming and also know what the other presidents have in thier possession. E.G. Obama who I’m sure took anything incriminating to him.

“If I were on a jury I’d like to see what it is they are claiming”

Right.

It’s for Grand Jury (part of the indictment process—they “hand up” a “true bill” to the judge in a criminal case, who then “hands down” an indictment) to be treated like mushrooms—meaning, kept in the dark, and fed B.S.. Defense lawyers play no part in the indictment process and so cannot challenge what prosecutors choose to present to or keep from Grand Jury jurors.

The jury members for the actual criminal trial, by contrast, can’t legitimately be kept ignorant in any way in terms of the gravamen of the complaint.

Not just Presidents—if I were on the jury I would want to know exactly what Hillary had on her home brew server that led to no indictment.

Ditto for Biden as Senator and Vice President.

I would want a full understanding not just of what the law says but how it is been applied in the real world.
