Dave Aronberg: Fani Willis ‘Is Carpet Bombing Them into Smithereens’

EXCERPT:

ARONBERG: "And I have great respect for Fani Willis and what she did up there in Georgia. This is a tour de force. Jack Smith’s indictment was built for speed. Fani Willis’ was far different. I mean, his was a tactical strike on MAGA. Hers is carpet bombing them into smithereens, it's shock-and-awe, indict 19 people and 98 pages and 41 counts and 161 overt acts. And there are benefits to this ambitious approach. It's the first time the leaders of the attempted coup will be held accountable, including the lawyers who cloaked it with this false sense of legal legitimacy. But the downside, Jonathan, is that there is no way you’re going to try all 19 of the defendants at the same time. I know what my counterpart up there says that she wants to do, but I think that she obviously thinks that several defendants will flip ahead of time and the first one who gets into her office, hat in hand, will get the best deal. But these RICO trials can take months. The trial she had with the school teachers in RICO over testing scandal, that took eight months. And so I don’t think this trial is going to happen before the election. But as you guys said, she has the benefit of time because the Department of Justice will not be able to end her investigation and no one is going to be able to pardon Donald Trump out of it."
