Topics
Andrew Weissmann: 本期节目主要回顾了特朗普刑事审判第三周的情况,重点关注了庭审现场的氛围、证人凯斯·戴维森的证词及其交叉盘问,以及对禁言令相关听证会的讨论。Weissmann详细描述了法院外排队等候的场景,以及法院内法官和律师的表现,并对证人证词进行了分析,指出检方策略性地引导证人承认关键证据,并提前揭示Michael Cohen证词的缺陷,以增强证词的可信度。他还强调了特朗普没有签署与Stormy Daniels的协议,但检方可以通过其他证据证明他知晓并参与了掩盖计划,这对于指控其伪造商业记录至关重要。此外,他还分析了辩方律师的盘问策略,指出其试图将Keith Davidson描绘成敲诈勒索者,但未能有效地质疑关键证据,并对检方选择重点盘问Keith Davidson而非David Pecker的策略表示疑惑。最后,Weissmann还分析了录音证据,指出特朗普和Cohen之间的录音揭示了特朗普对向Karen McDougal付款的知情和参与,并试图通过现金支付来掩盖交易记录,而Cohen和Davidson之间的录音则提供了新的证据,支持特朗普知晓并参与掩盖计划的论点,并为进一步调查提供了线索。 Mary McCord: McCord主要从法律角度分析了法官对特朗普违反禁言令的裁决,以及该裁决对其他案件的影响。她指出,法官在平衡保护证人与维护被告权利之间表现出谨慎的态度,并对法官对特朗普某些言论的反应表示惊讶。McCord还分析了辩方律师Emile Beauvais的盘问策略,指出其试图将Keith Davidson描绘成敲诈勒索者,但未能有效地质疑关键证据。此外,McCord还讨论了录音证据,指出特朗普和Cohen之间的录音揭示了特朗普对向Karen McDougal付款的知情和参与,而Cohen和Davidson之间的录音则提供了新的证据,支持特朗普知晓并参与掩盖计划的论点。最后,McCord还回答了听众关于特朗普违反禁言令是否会影响其他案件保释条件的问题,指出虽然特朗普因违反禁言令而被判犯有刑事藐视罪,但这并不构成刑事定罪,不会影响他在其他案件中的保释条件。
