10:33 pm
given, certain evidence that was let in that didn't go directly to the charges but was so cold "other acts evidence". i don't see any other particular attack that the jury pool itself was unfair, given the time and attention and involvement of the lawyers on both sides injury selection. i should also say the trial teams on both sides were very competent, is not a situation where there would be ineffective assistance that could be raised by trump's team. assistance that could be raised by trump's team-— assistance that could be raised by trump's team. faith richards, keep it there, i want _ trump's team. faith richards, keep it there, i want to _ trump's team. faith richards, keep it there, i want to remind _ trump's team. faith richards, keep it there, i want to remind our- it there, i want to remind our viewers what's happening at the moment. donald trump guilty on all 34 moment. donald trump guilty on all 3a counts in on the criminal hush money chart while in new york. these are images outside the courthouse and we are getting reactions pouring in from republicans who are condemning this verdict and saying that it condemning this verdict and saying thatitis condemning this verdict and saying that it is a shameful day in america, and we do now have a statement from the biden harris
10:34 pm
campaign thati statement from the biden harris campaign that i want to read out, this is from the communications director michael tyler. " in new york today we saw no—one is above the law. donald trump has always mistakenly believed he would not face consequences for breaking the law for his own personal gain. but today's verdict does not change the fact that the american people face a simple reality — there is still only one way to keep donald trump out of the oval office at the about box, convicted felon or not trump will be the republican nominee for president. it goes on to say the threat to democracy has never been greater and he's running on an unhinged campaign on retribution. i'll start with you, rainer, if you would give us your statement on the biden harris campaign. i would give us your statement on the biden harris campaign.— biden harris campaign. i think it's unfortunate _ biden harris campaign. i think it's unfortunate two. _

10:38 pm
public. but yes, he will face the potential of an incarcerated tory sentence and i think the judge will give it serious consideration. it's also possible he could serve a split sentence, may be home confinement, other restrictions on his freedom. with regard to the president's statement today, this is a tragic day for the american people. to have the candidate of a major party be found guilty of incredibly unseemly acts is not a joyous moment for anyone. i would suggest, however, that the president would be remiss not to have commented and not to have commented on the meaning of this verdict. it have commented on the meaning of this verdict-— this verdict. it was indeed the campaign _ this verdict. it was indeed the campaign there _ this verdict. it was indeed the campaign there that - this verdict. it was indeed the campaign there that we - this verdict. it was indeed the campaign there that we heard commenting. i mention some of the republican reaction, i want to bring that in because we have heard from house speaker mikejohnson reacting house speaker mike johnson reacting to house speaker mikejohnson reacting to the verdict, saying,", today is a shameful day in american history.

trump has turned into a campaign stump for himself as well, as he stuck to the media regularly. how pivotal is this for him, do you think? �* , �* , . pivotal is this for him, do you think? �* , h . . _ think? i'm sure it's an incredibly stressful experience _ think? i'm sure it's an incredibly stressful experience because . think? i'm sure it's an incredibly stressful experience because as| stressful experience because as faith just meant —— stressful experience because as faithjust meant —— mentioned, what's going to happen to them? his life is literally in the hands of this judge as to what's going to happen to them potentially. so it's a very difficult position to be in. so i'm sure this is a very, very tough day for donald trump. as far as his campaign, he is still the republican nominee, so there is an election coming up in a couple of months. he has to try to make lemonade out of lemons so to speak. he has to try and make the best of it so it's not surprising that he sends out a missive to his supporters to try and raise money.
10:44 pm
and he's got to again continue to be the presidential nominee at this point. there isn't anyone else at the moment. we point. there isn't anyone else at the moment-— point. there isn't anyone else at the moment. . . , . the moment. we are seeing donald trump walk— the moment. we are seeing donald trump walk out _ the moment. we are seeing donald trump walk out the _ the moment. we are seeing donald trump walk out the of _ the moment. we are seeing donald trump walk out the of the - the moment. we are seeing donald l trump walk out the of the courthouse to his car, we are expecting a convoy to leave shortly, there he is of course donald trump surrounded by lawyers so we can't see exactly who he is talking with, he shaking hands with someone, i can't see, unfortunately, who exactly he was just shaking hands with but he's there with his entire group of lawyers and his team that has been on hand for this trial, entire trial as well. this is the manhattan criminal courthouse and this has become a regular occurrence. donald trump showing up in court every day and of course leaving after often speaking to the media and this has been going on for six weeks now, richard, as we are looking at these pictures. expecting the president and his convoy to leave shortly, just remind us again how unusual and how unprecedented this entire experience has been.-

10:47 pm
decision not to take the stand. there were loads of documents, loads of witnesses, loads of statements he could have been cross—examined with both of you would have been faced with a difficult issue of the incredible —— committing perjury. it could have switched to sentence to a noncurrent incarcerated tory sentence to an incarcerated tory one. ~ p, , sentence to an incarcerated tory one. . . , one. we are seeing the convoy drivin: one. we are seeing the convoy driving on _ one. we are seeing the convoy driving on the _ one. we are seeing the convoy driving on the road _ one. we are seeing the convoy driving on the road and - one. we are seeing the convoy driving on the road and both i one. we are seeing the convoy i driving on the road and both sides of the road packed with people there, some of them ostensibly supporters, we can't exactly hear what's being said, but we see the convoy driving down and it's slowing down slightly but we see some people waving flags. one american flag i see, i can't see what the others are waving at the moment but here it is, after this historic moment seeing donald trump convicted on all 3a counts of falsifying business records. and as we are taking a look at this, ann—marie, take us through again what these 3a counts were and how the jury came to this.
10:48 pm
basically, it was one action but what they did was there was a separate account for each of the entries and checks and so on. so it was really the one payment to stormy daniels that was involved, but it was broken down into 3a counts. so it's not a surprise that they found that he was involved with the decision relating to the stormy daniels payment and the entry of the business records that they would then find that he was guilty for all of those. all of the 3a counts. but it makes sense the way the jury came to it. it would've actually been more problematic if they had just picked a couple of them out of the 34, picked a couple of them out of the 3a, so it's at least consistent. but they, you know, they took a look at all the evidence, certainly there were witnesses that testified and they made a decision that they believed michael cohen, the one that said donald trump was involved with the decision, as to how this would
10:49 pm
be recorded, they had to of made a decision that he was involved in that process even though he was already in the white house at the time that the business records were actually recorded. the jury must have found that he was involved with that decision. this have found that he was involved with that decision.— that decision. as we are watching this convoy _ that decision. as we are watching this convoy continue _ that decision. as we are watching this convoy continue in _ that decision. as we are watching i this convoy continue in manhattan, we do have are reporters that were inside the courtroom throughout the entire trial looking at some of the notes that they've been putting on our live page about that moment that donald trump was found guilty. our reporter kayla epstein wrote that after several moments of unbearable silence you for the court officers voice ring out and she asked the jury voice ring out and she asked the jury to read the verdict, and as the wave of verdicts washed over her donald trump him he did not flinch or react physically, and for those washing, kayla said it felt like the air had turned to stone. we could imagine that must�*ve been a dramatic moment. we see donald trump as my car as it striving here. we want to

10:55 pm
so there are a lot of issues there. that certainly, undoubtedly will be brought up on appeal and he may well get the case reversed based on some of the actions and statements of the judge. and thejudge, by the of the actions and statements of the judge. and the judge, by the way, of the actions and statements of the judge. and thejudge, by the way, he did donate tojoe biden and he, you know, he does have a daughter who is very active in the democratic party and has apparently used this case in part for fundraising and so will on. there are some issues there and he was not picked out of a hat, he was chosen specifically for this case. it was not done just by putting it in a wheel and having a random judge picked for this. so there are definitely some questions there. and one of the issues that came up before as far as being in manhattan, when a defendant cannot get a fair jury, there is the potentialfor a change in venue, so that may also be. i don't know if they're going to
10:56 pm
raise that on appealed at this point, but that is certainly an issue and given that the large majority in new york would have voted against donald trump, there is a question relating to whether he could get a fair trial in new york or not. he could get a fair trial in new york or not. �* .. . , could get a fair trial in new york ornot. �* . , ., or not. he didn't actually say that at the very _ or not. he didn't actually say that at the very beginning _ or not. he didn't actually say that at the very beginning of - or not. he didn't actually say that at the very beginning of his - at the very beginning of his comments, he said he asked for a change of venue, that didn't happen. it was part of why he said he believed it was a rigged trial. a richer, coming back to you, this is going to be then, of course, a continuation going forward. take us through what the possible appeals process would look like. well. through what the possible appeals process would look like. well, there will be on appeal— process would look like. well, there will be on appeal and _ process would look like. well, there will be on appeal and a _ process would look like. well, there will be on appeal and a think - process would look like. well, there will be on appeal and a think it - will be on appeal and a think it appeal would _ will be on appeal and a think it appeal would focus— will be on appeal and a think it appeal would focus on - will be on appeal and a think it appeal would focus on jury - appeal would focus on jury instructions, _ appeal would focus on jury instructions, admissibilityl appeal would focus on jury i instructions, admissibility of evidence, _ instructions, admissibility of evidence, the _ instructions, admissibility of evidence, the usual- instructions, admissibility of evidence, the usual issues l instructions, admissibility of. evidence, the usual issues that instructions, admissibility of- evidence, the usual issues that come up evidence, the usual issues that come up in _ evidence, the usual issues that come up in an— evidence, the usual issues that come up in an criminal— evidence, the usual issues that come up in an criminal appeal. _ evidence, the usual issues that come up in an criminal appeal. and - evidence, the usual issues that come up in an criminal appeal. and i'm - up in an criminal appeal. and i'm sure— up in an criminal appeal. and i'm sure those— up in an criminal appeal. and i'm sure those issues _ up in an criminal appeal. and i'm sure those issues will— up in an criminal appeal. and i'm sure those issues will be - up in an criminal appeal. and i'm i sure those issues will be mitigated in front— sure those issues will be mitigated in front of— sure those issues will be mitigated in front of the _ sure those issues will be mitigated in front of the court. _ sure those issues will be mitigated in front of the court. —— _ sure those issues will be mitigated in front of the court. —— litigated i in front of the court. —— litigated in front of the court. —— litigated in front— in front of the court. —— litigated in front of— in front of the court. —— litigated in front of the _ in front of the court. —— litigated in front of the court. _ in front of the court. —— litigated in front of the court. this - in front of the court. —— litigated in front of the court. this will. in front of the court. —— litigatedl in front of the court. this will not be argued — in front of the court. this will not be argued in _ in front of the court. this will not be argued in front _ in front of the court. this will not be argued in front of— in front of the court. this will not be argued in front of the - in front of the court. this will not. be argued in front of the new york applet— be argued in front of the new york applet courts — be argued in front of the new york
