Trump campaign manager arrested for battery of reporter

[GennGreymane]

Isn't every lawyer an armchair lawyer?

Well, there are also litigators. They stand a lot.

[Super Friendly Kitty Cat]

Just glad that this vapid cry baby Fields has been exposed once again.

I laugh at all the idiots that rallied to her defense.

[Belize]

I don't like Trump, but this is good.

Look, the guy didn't commit battery. Period. If moving someone out of the way is battery, then fucking lock me up for life, because I've had to move people to get through crowds too.

In a statement issued Thursday by Chief Assistant State Attorney Adrienne Ellis, the state attorney's office explained that “While the facts support the allegation that Mr. Lewandowski did grab Ms. Fields’ arm against her will, Mr. Lewandowski has a reasonable hypothesis of innocence. There is insufficient evidence to rebut these defenses. Therefore, although probable cause exists, the state will No File this case.”
Link to the actual statement:

"Lewandowski and Trump’s campaign initially denied that the campaign manager even touched the reporter, saying Fields made it up. But after video was released from surveillance cameras clearly showing Lewandowski being the one who grabbed Fields, the campaign accused the reporter of exaggerating what happened.

The prosecutor noted Lewandowski’s initial denial. “Soon after the incident, Mr. Lewandowski publicly denied touching Ms. Fields in any way."

And also, "He also revealed that Trump personally spoke with prosecutors and the campaign shared a draft of an apology letter with Aronberg's office "earlier this week," though it apparently has not yet been sent."

Now Lewandowski is free to continue helping Trump steer the Trump campaign to a crash right before reaching the runway (before bursting into metaphorical flames at the Republican National Convention).

One does wonder why they were drafting the letter of apology when they were so adamant it was all made up. It's also amusing that an apology would have ended all this nonsense at the start. But it did provide GOP voters and other an insight into how Trump operates and cost him votes.

I think they have cottoned on to Lewandowski and how disastrous he has been, bringing in hired guns to deal with things he has fucked up. Of course one of them ran Walker's campaign for President and that worked out so well. So it's like replacing the pilot who crashed the plane with the stewardess.

Ok, I know I'm bumping an old thread but could you, "legal eagles" just admit that you were wrong?

You're finding new ways/straws to grasp at that somehow you're right. In reality, you're flat out wrong. This was not a battery at all.

Normally, if something is coming to court especially if you're a celebrity. You find some way to settle it as quickly as possible.

You do not want to have "BRUCE WILLIS HITS KID, THE TRIAL CONTINUES" blaring for the first few months after being charged then the month when the trial happens etc.

The Trump Camp drafted up the apology for potential settlement/deal with Corey if the prosecutor found that they could indict him. They didn't and therefore didn't go to the table for settlement on Corey apologising.

That is why the prosecution asked Michelle if it would be acceptable if he simply apologised to speed up the process.

It's going to be hilarious tomorrow if it turns out they're not prosecuting because he agreed to apologize - it will literally be Trumpers claiming that him admitting guilt is proof he didn't do it (a better metaphor for the Trump campaign and supporters is difficult to imagine).

I often have to apologize for something I didn't do wrong. It's called marriage. /rimshot

Charges dropped, no apology, she ignored secret service instructions, touched Trump's arm, multiple videos show her exaggeration. Corey gave an interview afterwards and said he didn't even remember anything because it was so minor and lasted just a few seconds. Like I said before, wouldn't be the first time Fields has tried to play up her victim status to get attention. Now she's contemplating a defamation suit against Trump and Corey, lol good luck.

He already replaced him though he got the guy (cant remember his name) who did Scott Walkers campaign when he ran for Governor and helped him with the recalls.

Has to be pretty damn good to get a republican who targeted unions in a blue state elected.

She tried to ruin that mans life with a lie.

Walker had awful opponents, and Lewandowski is still Trump's campaign manager - he hasn't been replaced afaik.

Pangean still beating on that horse!
