Judge refuses to allow Hillary Clinton's tweets claiming Trump colluded with Russia to be admitted as evidence in trial of her 2016 campaign lawyer for 'lying to feds'
2022-04-28
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News]
  • U.S. District Court Judge Christopher Cooper denied John Durham's request to allow Hillary Clinton's tweets in the trial against her former campaign lawyer

  • The October 31, 2016, tweets involve Clinton demanding Donald Trump answer to a Slate article alleging his connections to the Kremlin-tied Alfa Bank

  • The allegations against Trump stem from leaked documents from former Clinton Campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann, with the files heavily scrutinized

  • Sussmann was indicted for lying to the FBI when he denied working for the Clintons when he released the files, which Durham said were fabricated

  • The judge ultimately denied allowing the tweets in court, excluding them as hearsay and that it would be 'duplicative of other evidence'

#1  How are those tweets hearsay? If that's true then ALL tweets are hearsay and not admissable in court.
