[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the posters above who are maligning Bragg...why don't you wait until you read the actual charges against Trump? [/quote]

Because once the 30+ charges are public they will be unable to defend trump.[/quote]

Statute of limitations in NY is 5 years.[/quote]

I don't think statute of limitations allows things to expire in the middle of an ongoing prosecution, does it?[/quote]

New York's Criminal Procedure Law establishes that the statute of limitations is two years for misdemeanors and five years for felonies, barring exceptions for certain heinous crimes like rape or murder. While it is not public knowledge exactly which charges Trump faces, it is expected that all charges are either non-violent felonies or misdemeanors, meaning that unless DA Bragg's office is able to indict Trump for a crime that took place in March of 2018 or later, Trump's alleged crimes are barred from prosecution under the statute of limitations.

This article is really dumb.  He’s starting the statute in Oct 2016 when Cohen made the payment to stormy.  But that’s not the criminal act that’s being charged.  The criminal act was the false booking of the reimbursements, and likely deducting them from taxes, all of which took place for several years after the payment to stormy. [/quote]
