Summary

Today Glenn gives his podcast outdoors while on vacation. First up - he untangles the knotted mess of Donald Trump's numerous lawyers. With so many lawyers and so many cases it's hard to keep track of who's who - and what attorneys are in and out. Then, Glenn defines a few words you might need to know when the Trump indictments start pouring in. He explains evidentiary standards including probable cause. And finally, the standards which jurors must use to decide a verdict are different depending on the case. Glenn explains what probable cause actually means vs beyond a reasonable doubt.

It's time for Justice Matters with former Federal Prosecutor and MSNBC analyst Glenn Kirschner.

Today, Glenn gives us his podcast from Outdoors while on vacation.

0:19.8

Hey all, Glenn Kirschner here. Welcome to what I am going to call a special edition of my Justice Matters

0:29.6

Audio Podcast, although truth be told, it may be special for me, but not necessarily for you.

0:36.4

The reason I say that is because at the moment, I'm on vacation. So, in the event you hear

0:43.6

a little bit of wind blowing in the background, maybe a sea-gullar, too. Perhaps even some waves

0:50.4

lapping up against the shore. It's because I'm not sitting in my normal studio back in Leesburg,

0:57.4

Virginia, where the sound quality is somewhat better than it is where I am right now.

1:05.2

Truth be told, I'd probably rather be where I am right now looking out over some beautiful

1:10.4

blue water, but you'll excuse me if you hear some noises in the background that are foreign

1:17.5

to my normal audio podcast. And the other thing I'll say is I swore I was going to try my best not

1:25.0

to do any work while I was on vacation. And as you can see, I have failed miserably in that task.

1:33.6

And it is because, you know, I've read a series of stories over the last couple of days

about Donald Trump's lawyers first abandoning what is clearly a sinking ship and then

1:47.2

beginning to feed on one another while that ship goes down. And I wanted to take on a quick

1:56.6

podcast, first about Donald Trump's lawyers and their current circumstances. And then I want to talk

2:05.3

about something that is near and dear to my heart, perhaps not near and dear to the hearts of many

2:13.2

sane people, but it is to mine. And I want to talk for a few minutes about probable cause.

2:21.1

And the nature of probable cause, what does that evidentiary standard mean? How do we go about

2:30.5

satisfying it in the criminal law? And I will tell you upfront the reason it is so darn important

2:38.8
