All the lawyer had to do is be honest about what’s going to happen in this prosecution, and how many years he would spend in federal prison in order to maintain the lie.
Was the footage actually erased? I thought that Trump’s crew asked him to erase it (but he either wasn’t able or willing to) but the actual issue was he initially lied to the Feds saying they never asked him to erase it. After getting a new attorney he’s recanted and told the feds that they did ask him to.
I never saw mention of the tapes actually being erased but maybe I just missed that detail? I assumed the Feds had the tapes.
The guy who erased the footage already flipped…
He had a trump lawyer and said it was never erased. Then he switched to a public defender and recanted his statement that it wasn’t erased.
Even if he didn’t take a deal, that counts as “flipping”

Yeah that was my understanding, too but I wasn’t sure if I was remembering correctly. :)
