Judge Arthur Engoron, who previously handed Trump a gag order for attacking a court clerk on social media, ordered the former president to quiet down after he expressed frustration and interrupted real estate appraiser Doug Larson’s testimony by speaking loudly to his legal team.
New York State lawyer Kevin Wallace had complained to Engoron, saying that Trump’s “exhortations” were distracting to those on the witness’ side of the room, the Associated Press reported.
A few hours later, a reporter for Law 360 reported that an unnamed woman had “walked up to the front of the [public] gallery, approaching ‘the well’ where Trump was seated.” She was immediately confronted by law enforcement, who told her to return to her seat then later led her out of the courtroom.
In a statement to The Independent, a spokesperson for New York State courts said the woman was a court employee who had since been placed on administrative leave. She was “yelling out to Mr. Trump indicating she wanted to assist him,” the spokesperson said.
During a break in the trial, Trump vented his anger, saying, “The government lied… They didn’t reveal all the evidence that made me totally innocent of anything that they say.”
So your defense attorneys certainly will, right? And you'll be completely exonerated, right?
No, because the Derp State is going to hide all the evidence so Trump's lawyers can't release the information. The only other person who has the info is Trump's Canadian girlfriend, you've never met her since she goes to a different school.
I mean, if such evidence exists, his defense would already have it from the prosecutors due to laws that require prosecutors to turn over any exculpatory evidence.
So, his lawyers better hurry up and exonerate him, because that millstone of justice is grinding ever closer. 🍿
