Craig’s Colorado Corner brings you Colorado lawyers and pundits who are voicing their opinions on the Trump trials and tribulations. New York v Trump is off and running with Opening Statements and first witness, David Pecker. There was a gag-order hearing too with Judge Merchan taking the matter under advisement.
Our New York v. Trump jury trial correspondent, Colorado attorney Greg Gold, was there in the Manhattan courthouse on Jon Day 6, at the New York courthouse, and in the overflow television viewing room with many media celebrities. Greg Gold describes the scene and the excellent credibility of witness Pecker. https://www.thegoldlawfirm.net/
Greg Gold lives a life of litigation and adventure and has joined us before from Ukraine. His description of the dramatic events in Lower Manhattan is vivid as he leaves the courthouse fresh after witnessing Day Two of the evidence portion of Donald J. Trump's New York trial.
Prominent Colorado criminal defense attorney Chris Decker has tried over 200 jury trials in his three-decade career. He’s the past president of the Colorado Criminal Defense Bar and a longtime member of its Board of Directors.Â
Decker and the host go over every aspect of New York v. Trump so far. Issues include immunity for Pecker, not Cohen, and why. We also discuss difficult defendants and problems with Todd Blanche’s Opening Statement on behalf of defendant Trump. We consider how best this case can be prosecuted, and defended.
