The Gateway Pundit Roger Stone’s DC trial opened on Tuesday and it was full of drama.
Longtime Trump advisor Roger Stone was ensnared in the Mueller witch hunt for the ‘crime’ of helping Donald Trump win the 2016 election.
Mueller ultimately charged Stone on a process crime of making a false statement after questioning Stone for hours.
Roger Stone on Tuesday left the courtroom early because of food poisoning so his lawyers handled the jury selection process in his absence, a process that could go into Wednesday as there are 80 potential jurors to choose from.
“I have, apparently, some food poisoning,” Roger Stone told Judge Amy Berman Jackson. “I don’t want to waste the court’s time or the time of the jurors.”
Several potential jurors in Stone’s case ended up being Trump-hating, Obama-era officials who admittedly voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016 so Stone’s lawyer’s tried to strike them as potential jurors.
