Dershowitz: Hunter Plea Deal Shouldn’t Be Accepted Unless Judge Calls Garland and Weiss to Testify
Breitbart ^ | June 28, 2023 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 06/28/2023 7:45:03 AM PDT by Reno89519

On Tuesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Hannity,” Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz argued that the judge who has to approve of Hunter Biden’s plea deal needs to call Attorney General Merrick Garland, U.S. Attorney David Weiss, and the six witnesses who whistleblower Gary Shapley’s legal team say can corroborate his statements before accepting the deal.

Dershowitz said, “[T]he judge who is sentencing Hunter Biden and who has to approve of the plea deal, must call Garland, must call Weiss, must call these six witnesses, and must say, look, Hunter Biden’s lawyers, we know you want the deal to go through. Justice Department, we know you want the deal to go through. But I’m a judge, I represent the people of the United States of America.”

He added, “The law provides that a judge need not accept a plea bargain agreed to by both sides if there is a problem here, and if he concludes, for example, that Weiss was denied the ability to investigate beyond Delaware, then the deal’s off. Because the deal probably ends any possibility of prosecution in the District of Columbia or in Los Angeles, and if those were foreclosed in violation of what Garland said would be available to Weiss, then the deal’s off, and you have to go back to square one, you have to conclude the investigation, and then you decide whether or not to make a plea bargain. Right now, the judge should not accept this plea bargain without hearing from Garland, Weiss, and the six witnesses.”

Yes, but will the judge do this? Will congressional investigation give the judge pause? Can public opinion sway the judge to reject the deal?

Almost a month until the court date, we can hope.

Maybe the prosecutor will withdraw the plea deal?

They need to trace every single penny. Especially if it is alleged, it went to 10 different Biden family members. How do they file their tax returns. There’s a lot more to see here than what’s been unpacked so far.

How did they receive the proceeds. If it was a gift were their gift tax returns filed. Did they file any tax returns. This can’t be over just by saying it’s past the statue of limitation’s when it’s definitely a case of fraud, pay for play with foreign governments. Not registered aHow did they receive the proceeds.

What no one on our side can ever get their head around is that they cannot allow Biden to go down for corruption because he knows that they are all corrupt. The deep state is Washington Inc. which includes Republicans and democrats at all high levels. Biden smiles because he knows there’s nothing that they can do to him.

"...But I’m a judge, I represent the people of the United States of America.”

Ha! Nice thought. But the judge represents they who have greased him beforehand.

It so cute listening to people, including many on this forum, talk about how the judicial system should work in this country.

Yes, wishful and idealistic thinking. All trumped by family, money, and politics.

My initial reaction: There’s no chance that the judge will reject Hunter’s plea deal. The fix is in.

But then I looked it up. The judge, Maryellen Noreika, was appointed by Trump. So I’m raising the chance from 0 to 5%.

The courts mostly are marching in lockstep with the Deep State. This judge will do what s/he is told to do. There will be no questioning of Garland or Weiss.

Judges are as corrupt as politicians. When they do the right thing it's generally a surprise.

Dersh is going Ann Coulter: “Let me see how outrageous I can get and still appear on TV”.

Yeah, you’re gonna get Garland to testify. Sure.

It should be a Nero moment for Biden and his stooge crew if justice is still a working system.

Remember the judge in the General Flynn case? The government prosecutors and of the defense wanted to drop the whole case, but Judge Emmet G. Sullivan wouldn't let them, and continued to be both judge and prosecutor.

Now compare and contrast this judge for Hunter Biden...
