Doubtful. Our best chance is that he goes straight up Paterno on us.

He's never going to jail. He's never paying his debts. He will see no justice.

Because America.

So Fani Willis just had to appoint a dude she was fucking to go after Trump in his RICO case, huh?

And the dude just had to take the job despite the optics.

Good job, Georgia. Even if it was allowed you need to read the fucking room.

And then she had to rant about it publicly, after she's been rightfully attacked for openly saying she is going after Trump for her own political gain. She went on a rant calling it racist that the Right is attacking her for appointing a black man and not having an issue with the white man she appointed. No, it's not about race. You were fucking the black guy and not the white guy. Also, the guy she was dating doesn't have any experience and seems like a questionable appointment, but in no way disqualifying to him or Willis as Trump is claiming.

It's almost like local politicians bringing politically motivated criminal charges is a bad idea.

Though none of today's theater has anything to do with the merits of the criminal charges.

Without using MAGA-brain logic, what difference does this make negatively for a criminal defendant? Like normally, let’s say the DA isn’t banging anyone, she’d appoint the best prosecutor, right? But if she just appointed the guy she’s raw-dogging, he would by logic NOT be the best prosecutor in the county. That would seem better, right?

I get the defense is going after her for this in the hopes that a different, more TFG-friendly DA has to take over, but if anything, the guy she’s barebacking isn’t the guy you’d be most scared to go against.

IANAL (obviously) but to me it calls her ethics into question. Does nothing for the defendant except that she could get removed from the case if the ‘chief’ DA deems it appropriate.

When you can’t defend your client on the merits, attack the prosecutor. They are looking for anything to delay the trial or make an argument in the court of public opinion. Watch Trumps lawyers in all his cases, they aren’t making arguments to win the cases, they are making headlines and video clips for the RW media to feed the MAGA base. Trump wants Habba to piss off the judge so he goes off on her and Trump can claim the system is rigged.

It just really pisses me off that she would do that. She KNOWS this is the biggest case she'll ever handle in her life and the entire world's media is going to cover it, especially if she fucks up even a little. And despite all of that, she had to appoint her boyfriend. What an idiot.

Is there an issue about prosecutorial judgment? As in, the guy comes to realize the case is weak and shouldn’t be prosecuted, but his interest in keeping Willis happy causes him to pull his punches?

Though I suppose that dynamic applies to every prosecution. Every prosecutor wants to keep the boss happy.

The optics matter too. No matter how air-tight the case and flawless the prosecution is, there would be the scandal hanging over it.

Not that this matters, but he just got a verdict against him in his New York state civil trial only a million less than the combined 2024 payroll of both LA baseball teams.

true about the young thug (young slime life) trial. And judge glanville! If one wants to know what the young thug trial is watch the BMF movies/documentaries. Bleu da Vinci. Those fuckers were deep at the clubs in 2000s. Everyone goes through security then 20 menacing guys just walk by. Thin line between some rap labels and gang banging/organized crime. Case been going on about a year already... Same rico charges same DA

Young Thug should go to prison for singing the hook and his verse on this shit alone, IMO.

The first time I heard this I legit thought a Make-A-Wish kid got to make a wish.



Edit:

Holy fucking shit. Praise be to the Great YouTube Algorithm. My weekend just got better and I already had 4 days off. I thought it was against him, but his lawyer wanted to introduce the video as evidence for his argument that Young Thug has no gang ties, and that much of the prosecution's case simply criminalizes the rapper's art.

Which seems so much dumber.

And all the lawyers want to spin his music in court. Stuff gets boring.

“If you decide to admit your crimes over a beat, I’m going to use it,” Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has said. “I’m not targeting anyone. You do not get to commit crimes in my county, and then get to decide to brag on it, which you do that for a form of intimidation and to further the gain and to not be held responsible.”
