One of Donald Trump’s co-defendants in a wide-ranging election-fraud case in Georgia remained behind bars on Friday, after he told a judge that he could not afford a private attorney to represent him and was denied bond.
Harrison Floyd said at his first court appearance that he could not afford a private lawyer and had been denied representation by a public defender because he did not qualify.
Floyd, who appeared virtually, said that it typically cost between $40,000 to $100,000 just to retain a private lawyer to fly to Georgia.
This headline is technically true, but it’s complete bullshit in it’s implications.
The judge said the reason she denied bail is because he is considered a flight risk and a risk for continuing to commit crimes.
So is Donnie
Its* implications
IT IS IMPLICATIONS
