That judge is completely corrupt. Evil man.
He is operating like a communist criminal judge! Soon, it will take just ONE juror to convict.
Is there no judicial oversight on how corrupt this judge is??????
Read the instructions. They clearly state that conviction on any charge requires a unanimous vote.
How will Merchan stop Trump from appealing ? A Trillion dollar bond ? LOL
RE: They clearly state that conviction on any charge requires a unanimous vote.
Sure, a unanimous vote of any group of 4. Not a unanimous group of 12.
Judge Merchan has already decided that Trump is guilty of innumerous unspecified crimes.
Just let him pronounce his sentence and be done with it.
That's what the Leftists want.
They have not defined the ‘crime’ that was committed.
They have produced no evidence that a crime was committed.
All testimony indicated that everything that was done was legal.
But the prosecution wants to tie it all together with a big red ribbon and say that even though all these things were and are legal, they add up to an illegality that we will not name.........................
The secondary crime - the one th e false business records facilitated - was never charged as a crime. Prosecution said, it was this, or that, or something else, take your pick, but never charged it.
That someone can be charged with conspiracy to commit a crime, but the crime itself never charged to anyone is astonishing.
I hope there are some jurors with enough common sense and enough staunch courage to hold against the others. Two, at least. Merchan could remove one, two would be laughable.
“Read the instructions. They clearly state that conviction on any charge requires a unanimous vote.”
Page 31: Jury is not required to be unanimous on underlying crime.
The judge should at least be honest and come out and say if we can agree that we don’t like Trump, then he is guilty
We shoulda done been shooting by now! This just insane liberal crap!
“Find me the man, and I’ll find the crime.”
From the instructions:
“Your verdict, on each count you consider, whether guilty or not guilty, must be unanimous; that is, each and every juror must agree to it.”
How does “each and every juror” equal four?
From that page:
“Although you must conclude unanimously that the defendant conspired to promote or prevent the election of any person to a public office by unlawful means, you need not be unanimous as to what those unlawful means were.”
From page 49:
“Your verdict, on each count you consider, whether guilty or not guilty, must be unanimous; that is, each and every juror must agree to it. “
Under our law, although the People must prove an intent to commit another crime or to aid or conceal the commission thereof, they need not prove that the other crime was in fact committed, aided, or concealed....
Although you must conclude unanimously that the defendant conspired to promote or prevent the election of any person to a public office by unlawful means, you need not be unanimous as to what those unlawful means were.
In determining whether the defendant conspired to promote or prevent the election of any person to a public office by unlawful means, you may consider the following: (1) violations of the Federal Election Campaign Act otherwise known as FECA; (2) the falsification of other business records; or (3) violation of tax laws.
They even named all of Cankles laws that she broke 1 by 1 but in the end she didnt even get charged!
Corrupt judges better be very ware of the thoughts that circulate thru the magnificent brain of President Trump as he is put thru these legal hoops with fire for the circus that is the Biden presidency. Me thinks their glory days may be counting down.

RE: How does “each and every juror” equal four?
The Jury was divided into groups of 4. Each group is given SPECIFIC felony charges to consider, not all 34 of them.
Therefore, even if the other 8 declare Trump to be innocent on the counts they are considering, it only takes 4 to unanimously agree on one specific count to declare Trump guilty on that count of FELONY. Remember, Alvin Bragg has a 34-count FELONY indictment.
The odds are quite high for this to happen.
