8 years ago for the exact crimes Mueller is prosecuting for
The lawyer that exonerated him
Rod Rosenstein
Interesting development for sure
Its the cornerstone of Manafort’s defense if I understand correctly.
Would a lawyer make something like this a major price of the defense if it was false and could not be proven? @CowboyJD
Judge Nap talking about it
Looks like Rosenstein may be a witness. That would be worth the price of admission to watch him.
If the claims against him were criminal and Rosenstein exonerated him, I wonder if double jeopardy comes into play?

If that’s the cornerstone of the defense and it can be proven. I would guess new evidence would have to have been discovered for this to be legit right?
Rod Rosenstein investigating him and supposedly “exonerating” him has no real legal meaning. It isn’t a defense to charges subsequently filed by a different prosecuting authority. Double jeopardy doesn’t apply until legal jeopardy actually attaches the first time. Legal jeopardy at a minimum is the filing of charges (with subsequent dismissal WITH PREJUDICE TO REFILING) and usually is when a jury is empaneled and the first bit of evidence is heard then the case is dismissed due to actions of the prosecution.
I’ll be surprised if Rosenstein even ends up testifying. His exercise of discretion back then isn’t really relevant to the case and whether or not their is proof beyond a reasonable doubt.
Also, I’d be interested in seeing what in the hell Nap is talking about and referring to “exoneration”.
So...color me dubious.
No. Not necessarily.
Good example...Cosby was supposedly “exonerated” by the prior DA saying he wasn’t gonna file against him. New DA...boom....convicted.
And that supposed “exoneration” was a formal agreement to not file charges because the civil case settled.
Judge Nap is a moron.
Thank you

Reviewing some live blogs, opening statements, and first witness....this is looking like a garden variety tax/bank fraud prosecution with a garden variety “no intent to deceive or knowingly violate ... laws” defense.
Actually it’s the opinion of one L. Hollis. Never heard of her, and it is unknown whether she is bankrupt or not. Not sure what bankruptcy has to do with the opinion piece, or in what way bankruptcy discredits the opinion. Can you explain?Two things...
First, begging for dick on this board isn't a good look for you. Get that app, the one that lets you find other dudes and have at it. No judgement from me.
Second, an opinion piece from the bankrupt Boston Herald - surely you can do better no?

Your sarcasm meter is broken. Time for an overhaul.Actually it’s the opinion of one L. Hollis. Never heard of her, and it is unknown whether she is bankrupt or not. Not sure what bankruptcy has to do with the opinion piece, or in what way bankruptcy discredits the opinion. Can you explain?
All sarcasm aside. How does the claim that the newspaper is bankrupt discredit the opinion contained within it?Your sarcasm meter is broken. Time for an overhaul.

You might ask DJT. His go to line when faced with criticism from the media is "the failing XYZ" - the Boston Herald failed and was sold via bankruptcy auction a year or two ago.All sarcasm aside. How does the claim that the newspaper is bankrupt discredit the opinion contained within it?
As perfected by 45.It's the old discredit the messenger and ignore the message ploy.
