Napolitano Says Roger Stone Arrest Was ‘Staged’: This Is ‘Kafkaesque’

‘It’s like the behavior of a police state’

EXCERPT:

VARNEY: "So, implication, it was staged."
NAPOLITANO: "It was staged, It’s like the behavior of a police state. Charged with lying to Congress. They won’t give him a transcript of his alleged lies because the testimony for Congress was classified. This is really Kafkaesque —"
VARNEY: "Yes."
NAPOLITANO: "-- that he should have to defend against something, the government has the paper that claims contains his lies, he is not allowed to see that paper. But lawyers can see it in a secured facility. They can’t get a copy of it. No way will a federal judge allow this to be the basis for the prosecution, because your friend, the Constitution, says you're entitled to be confronted with the evidence against you."
