For example, Chesebro argued that one charge against him – conspiracy to commit impersonating a public officer – was improper because the Republican electors were, in fact, electors under federal law but never claimed to be Georgia’s certified presidential electors.
So let me get this right. He was impersonating a certified presidential elector sent to DC to fraudulently perform the duties of a certified presidential elector, but that’s OK because he never said he was a certified presidential elector?
“Sir, you were arrested trying to get access to the bank’s safe using an employee badge you found on the ground.”
“Yes, but I never said that I was trying to impersonate him, therefore these charges of attempted bank robbery are invalid!”
Is he paying an actual lawyer actual American money for this advice? Because if so, he’s getting ripped off.
My (divorce) lawyer constantly reminds me “this is your case, if you want to go with that we’ll go with it”. I interpret this as “don’t be a dumbass”, I guess Chesebro took it as an actual offer.
I think that legal theory is intended to prevent the trial from even reaching a jury. This was in a motion to get the case tossed out of state court, citing the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution.
Sir, I never said he was the president of the United States, I said be was president of the states. As in our larping group called The States. He really was the president!
There goes that speedy trial. Makes sense now that she did that to angle for a faster plea deal. Saved herself potentially dying in prison. Cheese bro really really should take the plea too https://www.ajc.com/news/judge-rejects-request-to-dismiss-charges-against-chesebro-powell/QO2F5HTS65BBHCVS7W3KU35LEE/
If chesebro thinks that
is going to save him from a jury, he’s fucked.
