No Judge Will Overturn Donald Trump's Conviction?Alan Dershowitz

Attorney Alan Dershowitz believes former President Donald Trump's
conviction in his criminal hush money case will not be overturned due to
the New York legal system and judges not wanting to be held
"responsible" for such decisions.

Trump has lashed out at the Manhattan jury's decision to find him guilty
of 34 counts of falsifying business records in relation to purported hush
money payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels in the months
leading up to his successful 2016 presidential election victory. Daniels
alleged that she had an affair with Trump in 2006, which he has denied.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg brought the case forward as part
of a March 2023 indictment.

"This was a disgrace. This was a rigged trial by a conflicted judge who
was corrupt," Trump said outside the courtroom following the verdict.
Trump, who has long denounced the prosecution as a "witch hunt," has said
he is innocent of all charges in this case and other criminal and civil
cases he is facing.

While appearing on Steve Bannon's War Room podcast on Thursday,
Dershowitz said the former president "has to appeal first through the New
York system, and the New York system are all judges that don't wanna be
responsible for freeing Donald Trump."

He added: "These are people who have to live with their families. These
are people who don't wanna be Dershowitzed."

Newsweek has reached out to Dershowitz via email for further comment.

The longtime lawyer and Harvard Law School professor emeritus compared
Trump's legal anguish to his own personal strife, mentioning how Harvard
Law School "canceled" him after 50 years of service due to him
representing Trump during his first impeachment.

"People know what happened to me when I defended Donald Trump on the
floor of the Senate. Nobody on Martha's Vineyard would speak to me....I
am not encouraged that he'll get a fair appeal," Dershowitz said, adding
that the case may reach the Supreme Court, but not prior to the November
5 election.

The legal analyst also said he predicted a Trump conviction in this case
due to the location of the trial and strong Democratic leaning in New
York City, echoing Trump's words about the overall case being "rigged."

Dershowitz's Thursday remarks are contrary to what he said earlier this
month, in which he said during the first days of the trial that
prosecutors in the hush money case were perhaps following a doomed
"roadmap" in attempting to reach a Trump conviction?comparing the case to
the New York Court of Appeals' overturning of Harvey Weinstein's 2020
rape conviction.

"I can't imagine how the Court of Appeals in New York that reversed the
Harvey Weinstein conviction?which was a harder case to reverse?wouldn't
reverse this conviction if it got up there," he said on Fox News.

The longtime lawyer also said in April that some Democrats wanted Trump
"killed" based on legislation introduced by Representative Bennie
Thompson, a Mississippi Democrat, called the "Denying Infinite Security
and Government Resources Allocated toward Convicted and Extremely
Dishonorable Former Protectees Act"?or the DISGRACED Act?intended to
terminate Secret Service protection for individuals convicted of either
state or local felonies.

New York City-based attorney Nicole Brenecki recently told Newsweek that
Secret Service has very likely already been involved in any potential
incarceration discussions should Trump be sentenced to prison time.

Trump's sentencing will be on July 11.
