Trump's Hush Money Trial Jurors Will Be Kept Secret From Public, Judge Rules.

[Tommy Tainant]

I don't disagree, if a jury is threatened, if...it's not a fair trial.

Nobody has been threatened, they don't even have a jury.

The person, or persons doing the threatening, should be prosecuted.

They anticipate the threats due to trumps track record. He brought it on himself. Thats why he is being gagged.
His lawyers are involved with jury selection. The press is reporting events every day. It seems fair to me.

The identity of jurors in former President Donald Trump’s trial for allegedly paying adult film star Stormy Daniels “hush money” payments will be kept secret, New York Supreme Court Judge Juan Merchan ruled Thursday, citing potential threats of tampering or harassment.

The trial is set to begin on March 25.

Merchan issued a protective order keeping the jurors anonymous, but Trump and his lawyers and the Manhattan district attorney’s office will still know their identities.

Merchan found that there was the a “likelihood of bribery, jury tampering, or of physical injury or harassment of jurors,” and in a footnote added that Trump “has an extensive history of attacking trial jurors and grand jurors.”

The former president is preparing to go to trial on March 25 in the case brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg—the first indictment the former president faced after leaving office.

They want to make sure any juror voting to acquit isn't made into a cancel target by the violent left.

Oh I thought you were claiming in the UK they can do away with juries if they felt they could be threatened

What the heck have you been arguing about?

The Diplock courts dispensed with juries because they were being threatened.

As for publishing names and addresses I am not sure that is a right. It is not even a practice in the UK.

Wht purpose does it serve ?

Jury of peers means fellow citizens not a chosen demographic.

Remember we have had courts when you were stringing up rustlers.

The govt shouldnt publish their names in the press. Doesn’t mean that info can’t be made public or discovered

Well it is a chosen demographic, your peers.

They took the video taped course provided by you guys about illegally harassing SC justices at their homes

Trump’s a criminal, as are his thuggish, lawless supporters – any of whom are a potential threat to jurors, willing to commit acts of violence at the behest of Trump or on their own.

Wow, this sounds like a threat

 

[struth]

The reality is, after all the threats from leftist, the violence, the assaults on court houses, the riots when verdicts didn't go their way, Congressmen and women directly threatening violence.....the jury is going to have real concerns following the law in this trial.

Given that YOU responded to MY post, I guess you are.

 

[the watcher]

The jurors must remain anonymous and not questioned. That is The Law.

Let them pull their non peer bias bullshit in secret
It’s communism

Yes saying “they suck ” is so distressing to virtue posing fakes

Seven jurors were quickly sworn in this afternoon, filling the panel that will decide whether Trump is guilty of falsifying business documents to conceal a sex scandal with a porn star.

"We have our jury," Justice Juan Merchan said when the 12th juror was picked.
