Now, federal Judge Amy Berman Jackson is holding a closed hearing on Stone's motion for a new trial, but the first half hour will be open to the public before the closed portion begins. In the lead up to Jackson's call for a hearing on the matter, Stone's attorneys late Friday filed a motion for Judge Jackson to be dismissed from Stone's case and overseeing the bid for a new trial, citing Jackson's statements during Stone's sentencing a day earlier, which Stone's lawyers alleged indicated"an inability to reserve judgment on an issue which has yet been heard.

Earlier this month, unsealed court documents revealed that Judge Jackson denied a previous sealed motion for a new trial filed by Stone's defense team involving a post-trial objection to one of the jurors. The individual disclosed during the jury selection process that they had a legal background and had worked for the IRS.

President Trump has claimed the jury was 'totally tainted' and has called the jury forewoman 'anti-Trump.' He is taking his cue from there.

The idiots had their chance during voir dire. Obviously, like their client, they just ran their mouths. The key in voir dire is to keep the jurors talking. If the attorney is doing too much of the talking, they don’t learn anything about the juror.

That's his right. The dishonest media demonize everything.

Absolutely Stone should get a new trial.
