Making Sense of the Georgia Trump RICO Pleas (Vol. I)

Three lawyers (so far) have plead guilty in the Georgia State RICO case.   I had so many questions about what these pleas and sentencings really meant - for the lawyers who entered them, the remaining defendants, and the pending federal matters.  But, I don't practice in Georgia state court.   Therefore, I put out the "bat signal" on the NACDL listserve and found two wonderful lawyers to help us break it all down:  Thomas Church & Jeff Brickman.   IN THIS EPISODE:   First Offender Act sentencings in Georgia; Consequences for violating these agreements; Remorse, acceptance, and letters of apology; Significant differences between state and federal diversion pleas; The efficacy of pleading in GA, when they still likely face federal charges; The possibilty of deals being already in place with Jack Smith (i.e. "global resolution"); The beef over Jenna's legal fees; Predictions for what comes next.
