LITERARY SDNY,
June 30 – For the CIA
witnesses, even just the
paper-pushers, the courtroom
was sealed in the Joshua
Schulte trial.
But when Carlos
Betances from the Dominican
Republic by way of the MCC was
the witness, the courtroom was
re-opened. Not that many
people went.
Kurt was
there as Betances on direct
said that he lived in Rockland
County. Why then was he in a
prison uniform?
He described
getting phones for not only
Schulte but also Omar Anamat,
scammer and first cousin of
Huma Abadeen. The political
echoes were everywhere, Kurt
thought. At least Maurene
Comey wasn't prosecuting this
case.
Betances
was being held, and not
deported, to squeeze
everything they could out of
him as a cooperator.
Now that two
jurors had been knocked out of
the Schulte case due to COVID,
the possibility of a second
mistrial this time on virus
grounds arose. Would they keep
Carlos on ice for a third
trial? The US would never let
Schulte go.
Meanwhile Reality
Winner, who pleaded guilty to
leaking NSA intelligence about
Russian interference in
election, was asking the
Administration for a pardon.
If convicted on
the CIA counts, or even now
with only lying to the FBI and
the pending sex charges,
Schulte would never get a
pardon. They'd left him no
option. He pressed forward
with cross examination, in an
emptying courthouse with a
shrinking jury. And the
blogger would remains. More on
