APPEARS???? WAS TAINTED!! MISTRIAL !!
Agreed. Apparently It’s only “fair” when the lib dems have their way. Anything short of that a cover-up etc....the impeachment hoax was a perfect example of that
There was NOTHING TO ROLL OVER ON!
The juror was Democrat activist. It is very likely she had contact - and discussed the case with other Democrats.
Jury tampering.
The FIX was in. Lead juror anti-Trumper to the max.
There is a legal term called “fruit of the poisonous tree.” If the evidence, or tree, is tainted, then anything gained from the evidence — the fruit — is tainted as well.
Fruit of the poisonous tree
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fruit of the poisonous tree is a legal metaphor in the United States used to describe evidence that is obtained illegally.[1] The logic of the terminology is that if the source (the “tree”) of the evidence or evidence itself is tainted, then anything gained (the “fruit”) from it is tainted as well.
History:
The doctrine underlying the name was first described in Silverthorne Lumber Co. v. United States, 251 U.S. 385 (1920).[2][3][4] The term’s first use was by Justice Felix Frankfurter in Nardone v. United States (1939).[citation needed]
Such evidence is not generally admissible in court.[5] For example, if a police officer conducted an unconstitutional (Fourth Amendment) search of a home and obtained a key to a train station locker, and evidence of a crime came from the locker, that evidence would most likely be excluded under the fruit of the poisonous tree legal doctrine.
The testimony of a witness who is discovered through illegal means would not necessarily be excluded, however, due to the “attenuation doctrine”[6], which allows certain evidence or testimony to be admitted in court if the link between the illegal police conduct and the resulting evidence or testimony is sufficiently attenuated.
For example, a witness who freely and voluntarily testifies is enough of an independent intervening factor to sufficiently “attenuate” the connection between the government’s illegal discovery of the witness and the witness’s voluntary testimony itself. (United States v. Ceccolini, 435 U.S. 268 (1978))
The “fruit of the poisonous tree” doctrine is an extension of the exclusionary rule, which, subject to some exceptions, prevents evidence obtained in violation of the Fourth Amendment from being admitted in a criminal trial.[1] Like the exclusionary rule, the fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine is intended to deter police from using illegal means to obtain evidence.[2]
The doctrine is subject to four main exceptions.[citation needed] The tainted evidence is admissible if:
It was discovered in part as a result of an independent, untainted source; or
it would inevitably have been discovered despite the tainted source; or
the chain of causation between the illegal action and the tainted evidence is too attenuated; or
the search warrant was not found to be valid based on probable cause, but was executed by government agents in good faith (called the good-faith exception).
This doctrine was also used by the European Court of Human Rights in Gäfgen v. Germany.[citation needed] In certain cases continental European countries have similar laws (e.g. in cases of torture), while the doctrine itself is generally not known.[citation needed] Illegally obtained evidence is used by the courts to ensure that the judgment is factually correct, however the person obtaining the illegal evidence typically faces independent consequences.
My personal opinion: Probably every so called criminal case against our people by the FBI/DOJ was tainted by the same FBI/DOJ.
“The politically-driven prosecutor and politically-biased judge are tainted too.”
Absolutely!
Then, throw in the tainted AGs from the DOJ!
Thanks for posting this reality of a tainted jury foreman. A vile racist bitch, who hated/hates our president
“There was NOTHING TO ROLL OVER ON”
That’s their problem...and will be their downfall. They think everybody is dirty like they are.
Stone, a first-timer, was eventually convicted of lying to Congress, interfering in the House’s Russian Collusion Hoax investigation, and tampering with a witness.
*************
These offenses inherently involve vagueness, subjectivity, and opportunity for venting by biased juries. Especially juries drawn from Republican-hating jury pools like DC. They can be used to criminalize politically incorrect politics.
Geraldo Rivera pointed out that a cadre of 4 Democrat heavy hitters from the DOJ were assigned to this case of political jay-walking.
Four high-level prosecutors were needed to take down Stone.
WTAF?
Vacate the trail.
BTTT.
And, from a couple of hours ago...
This is the FISA court all over again, another corrupted court.
RE: Roger Stone jury foreperson comes forward to defend prosecutors - but social media history of the failed Democrat candidate reveals she mocked his arrest, labeled Trump supporters racist and posed with ex-DNC chair Donna Brazil
Juries are usually questioned by the Defense and the Prosecution for eligibility. Did the Defense know about this?
Be sure to check out that second link.
