I've been biking to work and it's great. I would like the bus system to be more robust for further travels so I can avoid expensive ubers.

What are the plausible outcomes of this process? Will he be freed under bail? Put under house arrest? Jailed??

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

He'll walk out of the courthouse and be free until after he's convicted. He'll plead "Not Guilty", and the case will go to trial. That could take up to a year. Until he's convicted and sentenced he's free just like NY. He'll be posting to Truth Social later this evening from Mar-a-Lago.

Sad we don’t get to see his mugshot or see him in handcuffs. If only the rich were treated the same as everyone else

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I'm torn on the mugshot. On the one hand, I agree with your general point. On the other hand, he'll just use a mugshot to bilk money out of his marks. But on the gripping hand, last time they just photoshopped a mugshot, so does it really matter if he has a real one?

We will hope they will keep it civilized.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I hope they bring him in using the exact some methods they would use for a homeless black man.

How anyone still supports this dude is beyond me. The horrible shit he's put a lot of people through for his own gain is pretty astounding. I'm amazed he can even find a lawyer at this point.
