OK - now Jan 6 multi-defendant case 21-cr-40 DDC incl MCCAUGHEY, MORSS, CAPPUCCIO, SILLS & KLEIN, Judge McFadden is holding a proceeding- with a public call-in line, like US v. #GhislaineMaxwell could/should have had. Inner City Press will live tweet, thread below
The proceeding begins with not-guilty pleas to superseding indictment, now by (former US State Department employee) Federico Klein, count 34, obstruction of a civil proceeding, count 51, violence with a deadly building in a restricted building. Pleads: Not guilty
In the wider case, Judge McFadden: Defendant claims a fire cracker is not a deadly weapon. I deny the motion to dismiss. Also before me is Morss' motion for release. The government has submitted photos & evidence of what happened on Jan 6. Detention is warranted.
Note: the Klein charge, count 51, is violence in a restricted building with a deadly *weapon*
The overall case will meet again on Feb 4, 2 pm. Any plea offer must be accepted or rejected in writing.

OK - in US v. #GhislaineMaxwell, it's the Saturday "charging conference" to argue how the jury will be instructed before they deliberate on Maxwell's fate. Inner City Press will live tweet, thread below. #MaximumMaxwell
Judge Nathan: I have distributed my draft charge. Now we will discuss it.
Maxwell's lawyer Everdell: We say foreign commerce should be excluded. There's no evidence in the record about Ms. Maxwell enticing Virginia Roberts, only of Roberts enticing Carolyn.
AUSA: We're OK with removing foreign commerce from Counts 1-4.
[Note: Ghislaine Maxwell is here, sitting in the corner as ever with two (female) U.S. Marshals behind her, today in gray sweater.]
Judge Nathan: Mr. Everdell, help me find each "foreign commerce."

OK - it's US v. #GhislaineMaxwell trial Day 12, defense arguing to keep their case open until Monday for a final, 81-year old witness. Inner City Press is reporting on the case and will live tweet, thread below patreon.com/posts/60022486
Judge Nathan: I'm letting in the documents about residence versus ownership. If I weren't, you might have a point. Is this deposition transcript new to you?
Maxwell's lawyer: She was deposed in a slip and fall case.
Judge Nathan: You'll provide the transcript.
Judge Nathan: I have a rule, you have your next witness or you rest. If otherwise the case closes today, it closes today.
[Couldn't Maxwell's lawyers just do super-long direct examination? And what about the 3 day hiatus?]

Judge Nathan: What else?
Maxwell's lawyer: The US' rebuttal expert, I'm prepared to file something if they actually call the expert.
Judge Nathan: Hamilton?
Everdell: We reached him, he can do WebEx tomorrow.
Sternheim: Because of his condition, we haven't spoken.
Jury entering!
Maxwell's lawyer: Dr Loftus, are you aware of image enhancing memory distortion?
Loftus: It makes people feel better about themselves.
Maxwell's lawyer: I asked you about C.V. So I move into evidence your C.V.
AUSA: Objection.

OK - Now Trial Day 11 of US v. #GhislaineMaxwell, Inner City Press is reporting on the case including 3 day (DC) hiatus and will now continue live tweeting the trial day(s), thread below patreon.com/posts/59982178
Judge Alison Nathan, who yesterday in DC forwarded her nomination to 2d Circuit Court of Appeals, takes the bench & just begins ruling on the filings that built up over the 3 day hiatus (request for call in line amid Omicron and all flight logs still UNacted on)
Judge Nathan: About Doctor Loftus' testimony. The US seeks to exclude 2 aspects, her testimony on leading questions and therapists' techniques. I have ruled that these are generally admissible. I deny the government's motion to preclude.

OK - in Day 3 of 3 hiatus in #GhislaineMaxwell trial, now another sexual exploitation case, Columbia's "Dirty Doc" Hadden. Inner City Press has reported on it innercitypress.com/sdny29straussh… and will live tweet, thread below
Judge Berman (joining the proceeding after a meeting): If you want to have some additional argument, I'm happy to hear that.
Defense lawyer: We believe an evidentiary hearing is appropriate. There was been more than normal cooperation between the two prosecutors
AUSA Kim: Defendant has failed to justify any sort of evidentiary hearing. It's all speculation. There are numerous cases where there has been a Federal prosecution after a state case.
[Uh, like US Attorney Alex Acosta sending Epstein case back to the state?]
