Trump prosecutors' case is 'dead' and cannot be revived, says former Michael Cohen adviser
Fox News
Former Cohen adviser Robert Costello sounds off on the NY v. Trump prosecution, saying the judge should have dismissed the case, calling it "dead on arrival."
ROBERT COSTELLO: There's nothing that I know about this case that could give the prosecution more life. This case is dead. It was dead on arrival. It never should have been brought. It should have been dismissed by this judge. He still has an opportunity to do that, but I doubt very much he will do that. So I don't think there's any downside with me [testifying]. I think there's only an upside, but it's a judgment call, you know? And I haven't been sitting in court, and I'd never seen any of these 12 jurors. So I have no feeling for what those people are like or which way they're leaning, or whether they made facial gestures during the weeks of trial that indicate which way to lean. So I'm not the right person to ask. The right person is the Trump team. They'll make whatever the correct decision is. This article was written by Fox News staff.
Costello told "America's Newsroom" on Thursday that he believes he should be called to testify, that the Trump trial grand jury did not get all the information they needed and that some jurors might have "Trump derangement syndrome."
