  • Both the defense and the prosecutor can select witnesses to call. Why would the prosecution (The State) not want to call the flipper?

    “A Trump Pac paid-for lawyer told me to lie or I wouldn’t get free legal counsel” is exactly the dream answer the prosecution would like.

    Of course they’re gonna want to ask it if they thought the answer was 99% that.

    Unless the lawyer [or the article] is saying the State is the one afraid because the State is the one that told him to lie for a public defender and the State wouldn’t want the defense to ask something that would bring that up during cross examination?

    Which would make no sense and is not how public defenders work but isn’t surprising to be coming from the caliber of lawyer still willing to represent the defense here.
