Fox News legal analyst Gregg Jarrett said Saturday that Michael Cohen 'stumbled, fumbled and mumbled' during his cross-examination in the criminal hush money trial against the former President Donald Trump, which he added was 'devastating' to the prosecution's case.Trump, the presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee, became the first former president in U.S. history to stand trial in a criminal case last month.
In Jarrett's view, Cohen's testimony 'invites the standard jury instruction that says if you find that a witness is lying to you about one thing you may disregard all of that witness' testimony.'The 12 member jury is responsible for determining whether the former president is guilty or not guilty of the 34 offenses charged.
