Scripps News: Trump GA Indictment, Analysis with Andrew Lieb - Part 2
Attorney Andrew Lieb joins Scripps News to discuss our unusual visibility into the indictment process against former President Trump in Georgia. Lieb notes that seeing interactions between the judge and reporters is unusual compared to typical court proceedings in New York. He says this trial could become one of the most "living room" high profile trials since OJ Simpson. Lieb also comments that while Trump's team is attacking the prosecutors, the evidence and facts of the case will be publicly visible, so they can only spin it so much. He says Trump's team needs to hope the evidence works in their favor.
Scripps News: Trump GA Indictment, Analysis with Andrew Lieb - Part 1
In an interview with Scripps News, Attorney Andrew Lieb emphasized the importance of allowing the judicial process to unfold without political interference. He clarified that it is the Grand Jury, a group representing a community's cross-section, that decides on indictments based on presented evidence, not the prosecutors. He stressed the foundational legal principle of "innocent until proven guilty" and argued that claims suggesting violations of free speech in the context of this indictment are not valid legal arguments and would be considered "laughable" in court. Lieb also mentioned that the First Amendment has its boundaries, particularly when it comes to conspiracies or ordering crimes. Furthermore, he noted that arguments based on legal advice might be undermined if the advising lawyers are unindicted co-conspirators or co-defendants.

FOX LiveNOW: Trump Georgia Indictment: What You Need to Know - Analysis with Attorney Andrew Lieb
The Georgia indictment against former President Donald Trump, and his allies, has major implications. Here are the key takeaways from legal analyst Andrew Lieb's breakdown of the case in a recent interview on LiveNOW from FOX.
The indictment alleges a "criminal organization" involving Trump and 18 others related to election interference in Georgia. It includes 19 counts and 98 pages detailing Trump's attempts to overturn the election results in the state. The indictment claims Trump solicited state officials and legislators to change the election outcome.
If convicted, Trump and the others face a minimum sentence of 5 years in prison under Georgia's racketeering statute. Lieb said many of the defendants may turn on each other to avoid jail time.
The case has the potential to restore faith in the justice system because the Georgia court will allow cameras, giving the public a firsthand view of the proceedings. This will be different from other cases against Trump that do not allow cameras.

Newsmax: Attorney Andrew Lieb Talking About Georgia Prosecutors About To File Charges Against Donald Trump.
Attorney Andrew Lieb recently joined Newsmax for Breaking News where he delved into the possible Trump indictment in Georgia, as suggested by certain court filings.
Lieb highlighted the need for prudence, wherein he stated, "Until we have the full facts from the indictment, jumping to conclusions is premature. Every charge deserves a thorough review before passing judgment."
The potential use of RICO statutes, or Georgia's anti-racketeering law, is under debate. Andrew stressed the fact that details, such as who exactly is indicted or whether RICO was even invoked, are still unclear. He advocates for a wait-and-see approach.
Additionally, Andrew illuminated the distinct reactions to the indictment from legal and political perspectives. Legally speaking, it's crucial to present just the necessary information to prevent a dismissal, but politically a robust speaking indictment would be far better.
