Remember that time Stone was indicted and immediately after I said as a former criminal defense attorney that his claims he'd never plead guilty, credited by many former prosecutors on TV, shouldn't be? Let's check in with Stone to see how his answer on this has evolved in 1 DAY:
2/ There is great value in speaking with attorneys who've worked with thousands of criminal defendants on a 1-on-1 basis. I think, generally, I'd trust an opinion about how a given defendant may think through a case from a defense attorney over a prosecutor 100 times out of 100.
3/ If Trump is secretly offering a pardon to Stone of course all bets are off the table, but on the basis of the indictment itself and Stone's age and the quality of the prosecutorial team you'd normally expect what Stone is doing now publicly is merely negotiating a better deal.
