And Now Another One Rolls Over

[Babagounj]

Trump isn't a very good Mob Boss, his body count is much lower than say Hillary or Obama.

 

[bbsam]

They are allowed to plead guilty to lesser charges in agreement to testify against Trump.
This is a very common tactic used in RICO cases against Mob Bosses.

…and cult leaders.

 

[728ups]

Defendants make a judgment regarding whether they believe the prosecution could convict them of what they were originally charged with based on the evidence the prosecution already has

There is also a Mandatory Five Tear sentence in Georgia if convicted of a RICO crime. None of these people want to take the chance of serving time so they are Rats abandoning ship.
Betcha Trump takes a deal too.
I predict he will plead guilty to a lesser crime and quit the race

Not likely.
His defense will be that the state brought charges without proof.

As the number of people that flip and agree to testify against him that defense ain’t gonna hold water

That's what grand juries are for.

Except the cult only believes what Orange Jesus says.

Of course they do.

Are you saying defendants should call the prosecution's bluff if they're offered a plea deal in exchange for testimony and cooperation against a "bigger fish" because such an offer somehow likely means the prosecution doesn't have sufficient evidence to convict them of the original charges against them?

Prosecutors make a judgment regarding whether they believe they could convict them of what they were originally charged with based on the evidence the prosecution already has.

And the Grand Jury decided there was enough evidence for all of them to stand trial

Of course they do.

They're offering them the plea deal because the prosecution doesn't have sufficient evidence to convict them of the original charges.

Why would someone spend hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees to avoid a nothing burger misdemeanor with zero jail time?

The Grand jury does what the prosecutor wants them to do.

Sounds like you are ignorant about the grand jury process. Wise up buddy.

Hardly . Again enjoy your delusions

Sure. Enjoy your ignorance.

Had no idea you believe Trump. Welcome aboard!

Remember too, if you are convicted of a felony you cannot practice law in the state of Georgia.

 

[burrheadd]

They want to help humanity?

Locking a bunch of these knuckleheads up would help humanity for sure

 

[burrheadd]

This is not justice, it's a fishing expedition.
If the state had solid evidence, they would not have had anyone plead out to a lesser charge in order to "find" new evidence.

This is a RICO charge educate yourself

But, If they can get some of the other crooks to start flipping makes a better case
