I thought that was supposed to happen before they went to the GJ.

My thanks, too, RC. For some reason I've been finding it hard to find the people reporting this.Reality Check wrote: ↑Wed May 25, 2022 11:20 amThanks, Kendra. I forgot she was also live tweeting. I added her to the list.
NB - I think emptywheel said she is overseas currently, and is purchasing the transcripts and commenting on them.

Closing arguments are this morning. Berkowitz is on fire for the defense. I think he is tearing the prosecution's case to shreds. To much to copy over, you just have to read it.

The jury was sent off to deliberate. The Judge says if they reach a verdict it will be held over the weekend and read when he is back on Tuesday.

Checked in on FoxNews, they're reporting that they had many experts agreeing that Durham proved "beyond a shadow of a doubt" that Hillary did only God knows what, unclear on that, something something Russian hoax, but that they said from the beginning that it would be difficult to get a "DC jury" to convict, so they are not surprised. Also Sussmann and Baker are close personal friends.

Sussmann will make a statement in person soon, we are told.
Team Durham will issue a statement but not give a presser, I was told earlier by DOJ. /14

The right verdict! Dunham was an asshole to even bring this case and the others.

I mean, I'm thinking the implicit promise of frogmarching made by his fans on his behalf was maybe exaggerated a tad.

IIRC, Dunham was ready to throw in the towel after his investigation turned up nothing but Sussman but Billy Barr talked him into the prosecution.

Popehat (posted above) -
But according to Charlie Savage, the jury deliberated about 4 hours on Friday and 2 hours this morning. IANAL, but that sure seems HUMILIATINGLY fast to me.Also, that’s not a HUMILIATINGLY fast verdict for a two-week white-collar case, but it’s definitely not a vote of confidence in the quality of the case.
