ew is not a lawyer, and Bower is in the peanut gallery. Which does not exempt Willis from criticism, but the judge gave Georgia six months to correct this error:,I.e., to file a superseding indictment.I agree the building a case on the call alone has never been as easy as ppl think. But here the dismissal of that count doesn’t reflect the sufficiency of the phone call as evidence…he dismissed bc of how the indictment was drafted, which the state easily could have prevented.

Everybody loves to say “You shoulda known better!” But in the end, the only opinion that counts is that of the judge of the case. When the judge decides against you, “you shoulda known better!” When the judge agrees with you: you’re just doing your job. Whaddya want, a cookie?
Overall, this is a hiccup. It’s also how complicated legal cases are tried before trial, and why such cases take so long to get to trial. This is not “delay,” it’s due process (analysis void in SDF because Loose Cannon is a biased idiot looking for a way to exonerate Trump. She’s going to spend days of court time on motions to dismiss that barely deserve hearing. (The argument that the Espionage Act is too vague should be tossed out on precedent alone. In 100 years, how many times do you think that issue has been adjudicated?) Trump is going to show up and fall asleep because he doesn’t hear his name mentioned enough.). If you’re still whinging about “delay,” you’re still expecting the courts to be the deus ex machina of democracy. And when have they ever done that?
