Judge Delays Trump's Florida Documents Trial to Investigate the FBI's Mishandling of Evidence; Georgia Court Agrees to Hear Trump's Appeal to Disqualify Fani Willis
This isn't even about the FBI falsifying the evidence by photographing documents inside of "CLASSIFIED" folders that they brought to the crime scene and put the documents in.
This is about Jack Smith's own misrepresenations to the court about his sloppy evidence handling.
Judge Aileen Cannon's decision to indefinitely delay former President Trump's trial stems from significant pretrial litigation issues, including a crucial admission by Special Counsel Jack Smith that may reshape the prosecution's standing. In a recent filing, Smith disclosed that the documents from Mar-a-Lago might not have been maintained in their original order, contradicting earlier representations to the court.
I confess, I have no idea why the ordering of the documents is important, but apparently it is. Anyone know why this is important?
This revelation came as part of the Special Counsel's response to a co-defendant's request for a delay to prepare his defense, asserting that the state of discovery provided was inadequate. Smith's admission acknowledges that some boxes of documents had been accessed and their contents possibly rearranged, which he claims still does not affect the integrity of the evidence. However, this could provide a substantial basis for Trump's defense team to argue evidence tampering.
Moreover, Smith admitted that the replacement of classified documents with placeholders was not initially disclosed accurately to the court, which could lead to significant legal repercussions for the prosecution. Judge Cannon now faces the task of deciding how to address these admissions, including the potential sanctioning of the Special Counsel and further delays in the trial proceedings.
Meanwhile, in the matter of MSD (Mobile Snizz Dispensary) Fani Willis:
The cowardly, biased chickenshit political operator posing as a judge did not disqualify her; he gave her a choice to recuse herself, or fire Sweetdick. She chose the latter.
Trump says she should have been disqualified outright. He's right.
The Georgia Court of Appeals has agreed to consider Trump's appeal. This is an "interlocutory" appeal, which is harder to get. Usually appeals are heard after a trial is completed. An interlocutory appeal is a request to hear an appeal while a trial is still underway.
The decision by the intermediate appeals court to take up the case is likely to cause a delay, further reducing the possibility of the case reaching trial before the November general election. This is particularly significant as Trump is expected to be the Republican nominee for president.
Trump's lead attorney in Georgia, Steve Sadow, has expressed that the former president looks forward to presenting arguments to the appeals court as to why the case should be dismissed and why Willis "should be disqualified for her misconduct in this unjustified, unwarranted political persecution." A spokesperson for Willis declined to comment on the Court of Appeals decision to take up the matter.
