All Fani has to do is prove Trump conspired to violate this statute:
It shall be unlawful for any person employed by or associated with any enterprise to conduct or participate in, directly or indirectly, such enterprise through a pattern of racketeering activity.
Most of the evidence proving this violation is undisputed and a matter of public record, if not actually recorded. The “enterprise” is the “association in fact” formed for a common purpose – i.e., Trump, Rudy, Sidney, Eastman, Chesebro, Meadows and others conspired- and took many overt steps - to overturn the Georgia election results.
They did cut Sidney loose for a while but she came back in the infamous Oval Office meeting.
The “racketeering activity” is the commission of the many crimes listed in indictment, including dozens of lies told to state public officials. But she does not even have to prove they actually committed the crimes – any “attempt to commit, or to solicit, coerce, or intimidate another person to commit..." will do.
Fani does not have to prove them all– only two or more that are sufficient to show a “pattern.”
RICO is NOT a specific intent crime, so she does not have to prove these clowns intended to violate RICO. And apparently there is a five year MANDATORY minimum- if convicted, Trump has to go to jail for five years. Maybe he can suspend if elected president but he would still go to prison after his term. And I don’t think he will be re-elected.
There will not be 18 co-defendants at the time of trial. All Fani has to do is say “no jail time” – or maybe “less than a year jail time” - and the small fry will come charging through the door to plead guilty and say “Trump told me to do it.”
So really, how would you defend?
