[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh wait, the Feds DO have an interest in Flynn's illegal activities associated with the Turks.

My prediction - the appeals court will rule  against the Feds.

[quote]Rafiekian’s case is in an unusual posture. While the defense is almost always the side appealing in a criminal case, prosecutors find themselves seeking the appeals court’s intervention after the district court judge who handled Rafiekian’s trial ordered his acquittal despite the jury finding him guilty on both counts after a few hours of deliberations last July.

Judge Anthony Trenga said the guilty verdicts went against the overwhelming weight of the evidence in the case. During the trial, he repeatedly indicated that he thought the government’s evidence was very weak when it came to showing actual Turkish government control of the lobbying and public relations project Flynn and Rafiekian undertook.[/quote][/quote]
