Former FBI general counsel Andrew Weissmann reacts to recent decision from judge overseeing the classified documents case.
The judge overseeing Donald Trump's classified documents case has been criticized by a former prosecutor after she ruled in favor of the former president's co-defendants in the case.
'Cannon rejected these calls and suggested that Section 3 of the CIPA statute is not applicable in this way as Section 4 'specifically refers' to discoverable information being made available to the defendant without the information being disclosed.'So again, we are left with the broad and unconvincing theory, which is that the Court must change the meaning of the word 'defendant' to mean, essentially, 'defense attorney to the exclusion of defendant.
