  • Summary

  • Jeffrey Lichtman dives into the art of trial summation, sharing how a line from a 1977 Robbie Benson film unexpectedly found its way into the John Gotti, Jr. summation. Bottom line: the more that’s in your brain, the more that can come out — and help you — at unexpected times.

    Next, Jeff unpacks the bail denial of Sean "Diddy" Combs, highlighting the challenges of defending a high-profile client when the media circus and public perception play a heavier role than the facts of the case. From alleged jailhouse rule-breaking to a judge unwilling to take the risk, Jeff explains why this outcome isn’t surprising — and how defense lawyers need to be careful not to help the judge hurt their client.

    Finally, a blistering critique of Joe Biden: the President was spotted with a book by an anti-Israel provocateur while Americans remain hostages in Gaza. Jeff connects Biden’s public nod to Palestinian propaganda with the surge of anti-Semitism in North America and abroad, calling out the administration’s complicity in enabling global Jew-hate.
