Based on what? Is there any precedence for this? And why would Trump’s attorneys be happy about this?

Such a move would be transparent and result in many questions about any guilty verdict.

I don’t think a judge can switch out longer, just because that juror won’t go along with the others. Especially after less than 4 hours.

I thought something like this was 100% illegal.

You must bring in an alternate juror BEFORE all the testimony, or that new juror will know nothing about the case.

I thought alternate jurors sat through the case just like the official jurors so they can replace disqualified jurors.

That would be the whole point of alternate jurors.

Some states allow it, but it will be so obviously a corrupt move here.

I thought dershowitz is an attorney? He says he would be saying this guy is innocent If he was on a jury. That’s not what attorney say they say This guy is not guilty.

I predicted this.

They have had everything planned out and coordinated - of course they have a plan for a holdout Juror.

The Judge definitely strategized with Bragg and his people.

The Judge said “We” in court when referring to the Prosecution.

I was an alternate juror once, and sat through everything up to the point of deliberation. Then I was released/not needed, even though it was a couple days before they reached a verdict.

He's not saying it in court. He's saying it in a podcast. He can say whatever he wants in a podcast.

You are correct.

This judge could simply swap out all 12 if he doesn’t feel the guilty verdict is coming.

It’s insane.

Do you think they care?

Everything in this trial has been obviously corrupt. What's one more little issue?

You gotta ask why has no one charged Biden?

It was Election interference to lie about Hunter and his $30 Million and to recruit Intel officers to write a letter swearing to his Lies.

There are many other things, but no jurisdiction has charged Biden.

That’s the way to stop this. The SCOTUS would freak:

Or Donna Brazile or Hillary - or Strzok.

It took Texas busing their problems to DEM cities before that subject got any attention at all.

Brett Baier would jump off a building if Dems were pursued by the Courts,

I've been on several juries. The alternates were always thanked and released when the sitting jury got the case.

Had to be a bit of a bummer, all the time invested, and then when it's time to decide?...toodles.
