Tomeka Hart, the juror in question, said she didn't watch C-Span on her questionnaire..



She said she didn't pay close attention to political news.

This is egregious. This person should have never been accepted as a juror.

Stone already petitioned the judge to do that and the judge said no.

And, now that evidence of a lack of impartiality on the part of the foreperson has been revealed along with the fact that one juror was a member of the Obama admin, this decision should be revisited.

No, the attorneys at the time had the opportunity to knock the jurors our during the selection process. Apparently none of these people hid their employment or views. Having sat as a juror and potential juror a number of times, I know the questions the judge and attorneys ask, it all would have been disclosed.

And, the defense objected to accepting these jurors. They TRIED to have them knocked out. The judge allowed them to be jurors. Tell me how this works again........

You're halfway to an ineffective assistance of counsel claim. Keep going and maybe you'll get there.

You guys are so cute. Apparently you've never tried a case in WASHINGTON DC, where everyone either works for the government or is related to someone who does. And, amazingly, they also are very interested in politics. Imagine that.

Like this Trump supporter who managed to find Paul Manafort guilty, even while wearing her MAGA hat.

And then they take an oath of impartiality, just like the Senators did. Are you saying the Senators lied too?

Meh. Trump lies 100000x per day. Doesn't really matter if people lie anymore. She gets a few mulligans.

This thread shows "the rest of the transcript" where Stone's attorney is aware that the juror is a democrat with political aspirations and decides NOT to strike despite the knowledge.

Really, there was nothing opaque or out of the ordinary about this process, other than, perhaps, bad lawyering.

If this woman had not stepped in to defend the prosecutors, we would likely not have been reading her tweets.

Roger Stone is guilty. The time suggested by the prosecutors was way over the top.

Now, let's do Comey and Clapper for lying to Congress.

This is going to be an overturned conviction.


He's going to walk.

Lying to Congress is not why Stone is guilty and deserves 7-9 years in prison. But then you can't point fingers at "lefty" Clapper.
