And ya missed all the salient bits
• exaggerated allegations, imprecise legal theories and persistently unaddressed problems
• This case is still an embarrassment of prosecutorial ethics and apparent selective prosecution.
• This case should serve as a cautionary tale about broader prosecutorial abuses in America
• Eight years after the alleged crime itself, it is reasonable to ask if this is more about Manhattan politics than New York law
• a broad “election interference” theory is unprecedented,
• they could not cite a single judicial interpretation of this particular statute supporting their use of the statute
• this novel attempt is a sign of overreach.
• Manhattan D.A. is now pushing untested legal interpretations and applications.
• it is unclear how this case would even fulfill the misdemeanor requirement of “intent to defraud” without the federal crime
• Calling it “election fraud” is a legal and strategic mistake
• None of the relevant state or federal statutes refer to filing violations as fraud.
• Matthew Colangelo still evaded specifics about what was illegal about influencing an election,
• weak theory of “election interference,”
• is a novel interpretation with many significant legal problems
• Manhattan D.A. has made a historic mistake.
