Apparently in New York, the defense is the first to present summations, then the prosecution. During this trial, the prosecution brought up a lot of 'potential' laws that Trump could have violated that were never mentioned in court or in the charging documents, with no way for defense to rebut.
Apparently New York likes to stack the deck in their favor...
If I was a juror and the prosecution threw in new content in the summation and expected me to be fine with not having anything documented or explained to me about the new material - I would be livid and would immediately vote to acquit, no questions asked. And I would not be moved.
Any prosecutor who tries to sell the snake oil like that is gonna get a big fat “NO!” from me, every time.
