I have observed and participated in trials throughout the world. I have seen justice and injustice in China, Russia, Ukraine, England, France, Italy, Israel, as well as in nearly 40 of our 50 states.

But in my 60 years as a lawyer and law professor, I have never seen a spectacle such as the one I observed sitting in the front row of the courthouse yesterday.

Alan Dershowitz was allowed to stay in the courtroom during former President Donald Trump’s hush money trial while Judge Juan Merchan scolded witness Robert Costello. Steven Hirsch

Many experienced lawyers raised their eyebrows when the judge excluded obviously relevant evidence when offered by the defense, while including irrelevant evidence offered by the prosecution.

But when the defense’s only substantive witness, the experienced attorney Robert Costello, raised his eyebrows at one of New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan’s rulings, the court went berserk.

The judge in Donald Trump’s trial was an absolute tyrant, though he appeared to the jury to be a benevolent despot. He seemed automatically to be ruling against the defendant at every turn.

Continuing to do business in New York City It’s like continuing to do business in Venezuela.

The risk is on them. If anybody is doing any kind of business in New York City or investing, it would probably be a good idea for them to get out now

Inside a courtroom, especially during a criminal trial, it's the judge's job to maintain order and decorum - two things unfamiliar to Trump.

If Trump doesn't like it, he's free to appeal.

Hold that thought until you get a look at the Jury Instructions.  It appears that deck is being stacked as well.

I think that the very best case scenario for Trump is a hung jury.  Otherwise I'm afraid that he may be convicted; of what, it's not quite certain. How can they prove fraud when Cohen admitted to lying???

In all likelihood all the people who created this sham "trial" will suddenly retire wealthy because they got the outcome their paymasters wanted.

Never mind the law, justice or ethics.

There is no way the results of this trial will stand on appeal - but that wasn't the goal. It was all theater for a short-term result before an election which they likely achieved.
