Nancy Gertner: “I would call it a coup.”

There is just none. There's no conceivable basis for that.

But what's troubling is the not so much the fact that the jury reached this verdict, but the implications of it.

This is unequal at the start. And there's no outside context. I can't emphasize enough how unusual it is to simply have people, you know, confront their accuser with no other evidence other than essentially their own words.

what he is doing and trying to do is lawless from top to bottom, and it would be shocking if judges did not respond.
