Chesebro, who was charged alongside Donald Trump and more than a dozen other codefendants with attempting to delay the transfer of power after the 2020 election, was scheduled to stand trial this week. He accepted the offer as jury selection was underway on Friday, and after rejecting an earlier deal.
Yeah, I also see that. But I think the public interest would have been better served by litigating this case in public next week, rather than waiting for some indeterminate period of time.
I also think that having evidence and arguments presented related to people higher on the chain of responsibility, without their attorneys being able to object to anything, could have served to solidify the case against them when they do go to trial.
