What do you think? If you were a juror, would you vote to convict? Or do you have concerns? Are there places where you think the government hasn’t met its burden? The question is a little bit disingenuous in that, unlike the jury, we are not watching the trial but rather, reading about it in notes from courtroom observers. (I will try to avoid my usual harangue about how out of step it is with reality not to have cameras in the courtroom in 2024), But let's engage in the exercise. Put yourself in the place of a juror. Imagine the very high burden the court has imposed upon you to do justice. With Cohen's direct testimony complete and cross-examination underway, where do you stand and why?
Good article from Joyce White Vance but I unfortunately could not be an unbiased juror. I want to see his incontinent ass roasted on a spit for a whole life of crimes he has committed to only enrich himself. I'd be the first one to say "count me out" and I believe the judge would agree with me. 🤐😇
