Judge Merchan Provides Information Indicating Juror in Trump Case May Have Predetermined Guilty Verdict

June 7, 2024 | Sundance | 238 Comments

There’s just something very sketchy about this public release of information from Judge Merchan in New York City.  Merchan doesn’t have an integrity bone and the comment he is bringing attention toward is innocuous and random.  However, Merchan could be trying to get Trump to violate the gag order aspect and talk about jurors; thereby making the sentencing worse.

According to information Merchan is providing the lawyers in the Trump case, a comment was made on the court’s FaceBook page indicating one of the jurors said the Trump guilty verdict was predetermined. [SOURCE]

My cousin is a juror and says Trump is getting convicted. Thank you folks for all your hard work!!!” 


Why would Judge Merchan want to draw public attention to this?

Either something bigger is being diluted by this story, or perhaps Merchan is using it as a provocation to get Trump to talk about the jury and violate his gag order ahead of sentencing.

Or, perhaps Merchan is looking to create a mistrial to exit the case, or do it over again and extend the gag order.   Also, why not include the entire quote from the Facebook Page:

Not sure what’s going on, but something.  Something….

Suspicious Cat remains, well, suspicious.

Not writing the whole comment is Merchan once again putting his entire hand on the scale of justice. Everybody in the world was making predictions, but only one person said his cousin, the juror, told what verdict and when….was correct.

So, why didn’t merchan send all the info to the lawyers? The media will only show the letter if they talk above it it at all. The rest of the post is the important part.

The issue will drastically delay the appeal process after sentencing. This means one thing....Merchan is going to sentence Trump to jail.

It will take years to sort out a defective juror issue. Meanwhile the verdict will stand. No appeal will be filed until the juror issue is determined.Merchan will bever declare a mistrial; befpore the e;ection. He ,ight if TRump is elected, its his escape hatch from being later joined as a defendent in a malicious prosecution law suit, or i n a federal charge of espionage.
