Ty Cobb: Guilty Verdict in Trump New York Case Likely by Friday
EXCERPT:
BURNETT: "All right. So you think by Friday. You also think the jury will find Trump guilty. How come?"
COBB: "I do. I think — well, I think it's a combination of things, but primarily it's because the jury instructions almost require it. The judge is not going to instruct on any level of intent or knowledge that Trump should have had or must have had with regard to the second crime, the generically referenced campaign finance crimes. And the jury certainly can't be unanimous on whatever that crime is, because the crime itself hasn't been identified. It's out there as multiple possibilities. And both those concepts are a little at odds with traditional criminal requirements of knowledge and intent and unanimity, but this is a very odd statute. I think as applied here, the defense is going to have a good argument on appeal that it was unconstitutionally applied."
