Former President Trump's attorney, Will Scharf, expressed strong criticism following the guilty verdict in a New York court case. Scharf labeled the trial as a sham, accusing the judge of bias and alleging that the legal system had been weaponized by political factions. He vowed to appeal the verdict, citing numerous errors throughout the trial.
Scharf hinted at potential expedited review of the case, emphasizing the need for justice and highlighting the gravity of the situation for the American legal system. He also mentioned exploring all options, including a possible direct appeal to the Supreme Court.
Regarding District Attorney Alvin Bragg's response to the verdict, Scharf anticipated a celebratory tone, criticizing Bragg for what he perceived as an abuse of power and a politically motivated prosecution. He accused Bragg of lying to the public and expressed disappointment in the handling of the case.
Addressing Trump supporters who may feel disheartened by the outcome, Scharf urged them to remember the alleged political motivations behind the legal actions. He insinuated a connection to the Biden administration, suggesting a coordinated effort to undermine Trump's candidacy through legal means.
Despite the challenges ahead, Scharf remained optimistic about the appeal process, expressing confidence in ultimately overturning the verdict. He emphasized the need for diligence and hard work in pursuing justice in the days to come.
