In a long thread, @innercitypress typed out the transcript of Trump’s case today v. E Jean Carroll, and this little bit came out:
The simple facts are:
- Carroll DELETED evidence that was subpoenaed
- Trumps attorney, Habba, sought to clarify if Carroll knew this was illegal
- Carroll’s attorney objected
- Habba moved for a mistrial on the basis of ADMITTED evidence deletion.
- Judge Kaplan denied the move to mistrial
- Judge Kaplan ordered the jury to disregard this mistrial-able offense.
These are criminals.
The whole thread is worth a read: (8) Inner City Press on X: “Habba: Ms. Carroll, are you aware it is illegal to delete evidence? Carroll’s lawyer: Objection Habba: I move for a mistrial, evidence has been deleted Judge Kaplan: Denied and the jury will disregard everything Ms. Habba just said” / X (twitter.com)
