Corrupt Manhattan DA asks for gag order in Trump hush money case after dozens of supposed threats

The Witch hunt never ends. The Left is intent on destroying Trump. He is under attack, all coordinated by the Leftist controlled DOJ, under Biden-Obama.

From the Left:

BREAKING: Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg seeks gag order on Trump ahead of his New York criminal hush money case

 

Just the facts: 

  • Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has requested a limited gag order on former President Donald Trump regarding his New York trial for falsifying business records related to a hush money payment to Stormy Daniels.
  • Prosecutors highlighted Trump’s history of attacking perceived adversaries and are seeking to restrict certain prejudicial extrajudicial statements by Trump, similar to a gag order already in place in his federal election interference case in Washington, D.C.
  • The request was supported by an affidavit from NYPD Sgt. Nicholas Pistilli, noting a surge in threats against Bragg following Trump’s social media posts targeting him. In 2023, there were 89 threats logged against Bragg and his office, a significant increase from one threat in 2022.
  • The prosecution included evidence of harassing messages, firearms, and handwritten threats linked to Trump’s social media activity.
  • Prosecutors also want the “Access Hollywood” tape played for the jury, arguing its relevance to Trump’s motive for the hush payment to Daniels, especially considering the timing of the payment shortly after the tape’s release.
  • Trump, who has pleaded not guilty to 34 counts, has publicly criticized Bragg, Judge Juan Merchan, and witnesses, including his former attorney Michael Cohen.
  • Prosecutors are seeking to prevent the defense from questioning Cohen’s credibility and have requested a bar on Trump making public statements about the case participants.
  • They are also asking for a protective order to keep juror names confidential, limited to Trump and his attorneys.
  • Trump’s campaign spokesman Steven Cheung criticized the proposed gag order as an unconstitutional infringement on Trump’s First Amendment rights and the public’s right to hear from him.
