During the trial involving Michael Cohen, Trump, and his former bodyguard Keith Schiller, Prosecutor Joshua Steinglass reenacted a fake conversation based on a call from October 24. The prosecution aimed to counter the defense's argument labeling it as the 'big lie.'
Steinglass animatedly acted out the fabricated dialogue, pretending to be Michael Cohen speaking to Trump and Schiller. He initiated the scenario by saying, 'Hey Keith, how’s it going? It seems like this prankster might be a 14-year-old kid.'
To emphasize the conversation, Steinglass used his hand to mimic a phone, with his thumb and pinky finger extended as if holding a handset. This theatrical demonstration was part of the legal proceedings to illustrate a point in the case.
The trial has been marked by intense scrutiny and legal maneuvering, with both sides presenting their arguments and evidence. The use of dramatic reenactments, such as the one performed by Steinglass, is not uncommon in high-profile court cases to help convey complex information to the judge and jury.
As the trial continues, observers are closely following the developments to see how the evidence and arguments presented will shape the outcome of the case. The use of creative tactics like the fake conversation reenactment adds a layer of intrigue to the legal proceedings, highlighting the strategic nature of courtroom advocacy.
