Topics
Andrew Weissmann: 本集主要讨论曼哈顿的审判,特别是Stormy Daniels的证词以及随后提出的误审动议。Weissmann详细描述了Stormy Daniels事件调查的起源,以及该事件与Michael Cohen以及潜在的竞选财务违规行为之间的关联。他还分析了对Daniels证词的盘问策略,认为辩方律师的策略存在不合理性,因为Daniels证词的可信度并非关键,关键在于其他证人的证词。 Mary McCord: McCord强调了此案的核心是关于伪造商业记录的指控,Stormy Daniels证词的可信度并非关键,关键在于证明特朗普为了掩盖丑闻而支付封口费的意图和动机。她分析了法官驳回误审动议的理由,指出辩方律师在开场陈述中否认了与Stormy Daniels的性行为,从而为检方提供证据来证明特朗普的意图和动机;辩方律师未对某些证词提出异议。McCord还讨论了其他证人的证词,例如出版商的证词和白宫员工的证词,进一步证实了特朗普的意图和动机,并补充了案件细节。 Mary McCord: McCord还讨论了佛罗里达州机密文件案审判的无限期推迟,以及佐治亚州案件的最新进展。她分析了为什么政府目前无法以此为由要求法官回避,以及佐治亚州案件仍在继续推进的原因,尽管特朗普及其共同被告对法官的回避申请提出上诉。

Shownotes Transcript

We head into the “eye of the storm” as MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord explore the nature of Stormy Daniel’s testimony in depth, and why her credibility is less at issue than that of others who facilitated the hush payments to her. Then, they turn their prosecutorial expertise to understanding why the defense’s mistrial motion was denied by Judge Merchan. And lastly, Andrew and Mary detail what to glean from Judge Cannon’s indefinite postponement of the classified documents trial in Florida.
