IMO, this case was bullshit from the beginning. First the statute of limitations had expired for the business fraud charges. The elevation of the charges to avoid the statute of limitations is highly questionable because the prosecutor never charged Trump with an underlying crime, and the judge's order to the jury saying they didn't have to agree on the underlying crime deprived Trump of a defense. or due process.
Not to mention how contrived the 34 charges were
The charges were broken down into 11 counts for invoices, 11 counts for checks, and 12 counts for ledger entries, all documented as "legal expenses”
To me, that’s like charging someone who stole a bag of candy for 122 separate charges representing the pieces of candy inside
