A key witness against former President Donald Trump and his two co-defendants in the Mar-a-Lago documents case recanted previous false testimony and provided new information implicating the defendants after he switched lawyers, special counsel Jack Smith’s office said in a new court filing.
Yuscil Taveras, the director of information technology at Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s club in Palm Beach, Florida, changed his testimony last month about efforts to delete security camera video at the club after he changed from a lawyer paid for by Trump’s Save America PAC to a public defender, Tuesday’s filing says.
So instead of being bought, he’s being extorted? Yeah that totally makes the current version of his story more valid… Throw this motherfucker off the witness stand and send him on his way, he’s either full of shit or he’s full of shit…
Are we planning on indicting everyone who testifies for the defense on fraud charges? Is that how this shit works now? Tell me how this is an improvement over trump buying witnesses or slipping religious fervor inducing drugs into their food or whatever ye fuck he’s doing to get people to back up his bullshit?
Indicting witnesses isn’t the fucking high road. Fuck trump, but fuck this bullshit too. This is exactly the sort of shit that “defund the police” types bemoan when it’s done to a nobody, but hey, as long as we get trump, it’s all fucking good… it’s fucking not good…
I don’t understand. Isn’t the way not to be suspected of perjury just not to lie to the court in the first place? It doesn’t seem like extortion to me.
I think this was due to the conflict of interest by the old lawyer, who probably told this witness, “Just say you didn’t see anything or don’t remember and you’ll be fine.”
It turned out it wasn’t fine and the guy found a new lawyer. This new lawyer is being a zealous advocate and trying to keep this guy out of jail.
