Interesting New Book Details How DOJ Blundered The Classified Documents Case Against Trump​

 
The disaster began when Jack Smith decided to try the case in Florida. Others in DOJ disagreed vehemently disagreed with Jack Smith on this decision, because they were rightfully worried that the case could end up in front of the hopelessly corrupt MAGA judge Aileen Cannon. And that is what happened.

From the Washington Post --

Federal prosecutor David Raskin was expecting that the criminal case he had helped build against former president Donald Trump would be filed in Washington, D.C., when a colleague bumped into him with surprising news: Their boss, special counsel Jack Smith, had decided to bring the case in Florida.

“Are you all f---ing insane?” Raskin blurted out to his fellow prosecutor on that spring day in 2023, in a hallway at a Justice Department building in D.C.


Smith and his top deputies had concluded that trying the case in Florida put them on firmer legal ground, reducing the risk of the most serious charges being overturned on appeal. And members of their team had initially calculated that there was just a 1 in 6 chance that a case in Florida would land in Cannon’s courtroom.

“I’m not worried about Florida,” Smith said later when presenting his decision to Justice Department officials.

But the early calculation of the odds that Cannon would get the case — and Smith’s faith that the evidence could win her over even after she did — turned out to be wrong.

Raskin, who had been investigating Trump for keeping dozens of classified documents at his Palm Beach golf club, was alarmed by what he saw as a huge gamble. In Florida, the case could wind up before U.S. District Judge Aileen M. Cannon, a Trump-appointed jurist who had already temporarily blocked federal agents from reviewing sensitive records seized from Trump’s club during the investigation.

This behind-the-scenes account reveals new details about the inner workings of Smith’s highly secretive team as he pushed it to complete a historic investigation in record time, including the venue choice that led to the unraveling of the most clear-cut criminal charges that Trump faced. It lays bare previously unreported dissension on the Smith team over how to manage the classified documents investigation. And it recounts for the first time Smith’s effort to remove Cannon from the case, an idea that a top Justice Department official rejected and that Smith never presented to Attorney General Merrick Garland.


Smith’s decision to bring the documents case in Florida, rooted in an extensive internal legal analysis, ran counter to what Raskin and others believed was the surer path to a conviction: charging Trump in D.C.

Taking home classified documents is not a crime???
Depends on who you are. Not a crime for a sitting POTUS or former POTUS depending on circumstances. In this case the nat'l Archives told him what was required for secure storage which he complied with. In the case of Joe Biden, senators and former VPs have NO RIGHT to possess them or take them off premises and certainly not to store these illegally possessed docs in an unsecured garage.

Correct, but because he was senile he escaped prosecution

Clifton on the other hand, Obama clearly decided there were two justice systems

Carol Leonnig has done some incredible reporting on many stories related to Dotard. I think she broke the story (along with Ken Dilinian) on Seibert, the US Attorney who raised doubts about the viability of the case against Comey, and Seibert's subsequent resignation. She's terrific and thus why she was hired by MSNBC as a senior investigative reporter. She's not with the Post any longer.

The docs case may be one of those times when Smith just flat under estimated how corrupt trump appointees are willing to be on his behalf.

The prosecutor that thought there wasn’t enough evidence, but then a grand jury said there was??

That prosecutor?

There is no msnbc anymore, nbc distanced itself from the network is now called MS NOW, because their parent company didn’t want to be connected the lies and propaganda
 
The topic of the thread really is about democrats judge shopping and why they do it.

It’s pretty clear they can’t run their cases through any constitutional based or written law based judges or they lose. This also ties into where they go to get all of these injunctions.

Sounds like Ratskin wanted a DC jury really bad. I wonder why?
