Wu on Attorney Nessel Calling Defendants ‘Brainwashed’ in Fake Electors Case: It Seems Like a Careless Mistake

RUSH EXCERPT:

WU: "Well, she shouldn’t be speaking about it at the political event. It seems like this is a careless mistake, classic unforced error. Ultimately, I don’t think substantively it will tank the case. It certainly does hand some ammunition to the defense team to make some hay with. They can argue that she’s showing some bias. She may be tainting the jury pool potentially. And most importantly of course, the use of that term “brainwashed” plays right into the defense counsel’s likely argument that there is no criminal intent, they were just following orders, they genuinely believed what they were doing was correct. So she’s created some issues for herself."
