PROSECUTORS FILE MOTION TO PREVENT TRUMP FROM ATTACKING, INTIMIDATING WITNESSES

 From The Intel Drop


Donald J. Trump

Prosecutors in the hush-money case filed a motion Monday to ask Judge Juan Manuel Merchan for a protective order that would prevent Trump from blabbing about any evidence obtained during the discovery process.

“Defendant Donald J. Trump has a longstanding and perhaps singular history of attacking witnesses, investigators, prosecutors, trial jurors, grand jurors, judges, and others involved in legal proceedings against him, putting those individuals and their families at considerable safety risk,”

Assistant District Attorney Catherine McCaw wrote in the motion. If approved, Trump would be blocked from posting evidence publicly or giving it to third parties. He would also only be allowed to view certain sensitive records in the presence of his lawyers, and would be unable to copy, photograph or transcribe that material. Trump has pleaded not guilty to 34 counts of falsifying business records.
