I am still hoping that Judge Juan Merchan has the integrity to dismiss this clearly invalid indictment.Given Bragg’s failure to even state the key offense allowing him to bring these 34 felonies, Merchan should have scheduled a hearing on the threshold legal questions in two weeks — not schedule all motions to be heard in December.
Indeed, with even legal analysts on CNN and MSNBC expressing disbelief at this indictment, few beyond Karen Friedman Agnifilo and Norman Eisen are claiming that this is actually a “strong” claim. In running the column, the New York Times proved it is also willing to “suspend disbelief” to watch this Ed Woods quality horror production. If this horror show is going to happen, it should play anywhere other than Manhattan. Call it “Plan B from Outer Manhattan.”
