Judge stops Trump from unsupervised access to Manhattan DA’s evidence.
Trump Restricted from Discussing Sensitive Evidence on Social Media
What Happened?
Former President Donald Trump has been restricted by a New York State Supreme Court judge from reviewing and discussing sensitive evidence related to his criminal case on social media. Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg requested the restriction, citing Trump’s past critical comments of their office and judges.
The case involves 34 felony counts of falsifying business records against Trump, which were brought in February over alleged hush money payments to a porn star.
What’s the Latest?
Two weeks ago, a federal judge denied Bragg’s attempt to stop a House GOP investigation into the charges and case. Bragg sought to prevent Republican Jim Jordan (Ohio) from subpoenaing one of his former employees.
Bragg is also facing criticism from Manhattan residents over his handling of rising violent crime. House Republicans held a hearing last month in New York City where victims told their stories, including a bodega clerk who killed a criminal in self-defense and was subsequently charged by Bragg for murder.
What Does This Mean?
The restriction on Trump’s ability to review and discuss sensitive evidence on social media is a significant development in his criminal case. It remains to be seen how this will impact the case’s outcome and whether Bragg’s handling of the case will face further scrutiny.
