War of Words

According to the New York Times, "The text exchange between Mr. Robinson and his partner was reproduced by prosecutors in the charging document."


Breaking story in that NYT: The published text messages were fake. Not real. A fraud. Made up.
This is huge. The complete incompetence of these people is disturbing as it is bizarre.
This is going to hit big as word gets out.these people couldn't screw this case up more if they tried.

According to the New York Times, "The text exchange between Mr. Robinson and his partner was reproduced by prosecutors in the charging document."

Reproduced? So no one has seen the actual messages? No screen shots? No time stamps? Also, weren't they on Discord and not SMS? 1/

The article does not say what you think it says.

You’ve read the charging document right? You’ve seen that it’s not screen shots of text messages or discord messages but typed out in the charging document or “reproduced” as the Times calls them. The messages also include multiple ellipses so they are not the full messages between them but those necessary to support the charges.

I'm saying nothing more or less than what Mueller She Wrote is saying. She is a lawyer so I assume she knows what she is talking about.

Specifically you stated “Breaking story in that NYT: The published text messages were fake. Not real. A fraud. Made up.” That’s a stretch from what was in the thread.

So have you read the charging document?
