Jonathan Turley: “Everything about this case, in my view, is legally absurd…”
Video transcript0:52
Everything about this case is, in my view, legally absurd. This case is basically a state misdemeanor that had run out on the statute of limitations, and Bragg was forced, after he declined for a long time to bring this charge, to do so. His predecessor rejected it, and so they took a dead misdemeanor and bootstrapped it into effectively trying a federal crime. But the federal crime here under election law was rejected by the Department of Justice. They didn't feel that this should be charged. So you have this crazy case that's going to go forward, and it's going to turn on the testimony of people like Michael Cohen. And Michael Cohen just recently had a judge call him a serial perjurer, and he's going to appear as the center of this case. Unbelievable. Jonathan, great to see you this morning. Thanks very much. Thank you.
