https://www.thedailybeast.com/judge-jeanine-pirro-melts-down-when-cornered-on-humiliating-trial-record/Trumps hand-picked top attorney in Washington, D.C., lashed out at CNN for pointing out that her offices conviction rate has been far below the Justice Departments usual average for federal criminal trials.
Over the past three years, about 90 percent of juries nationwide voted to convict criminal defendants, with the remaining 10 percent voting to acquit, CNN reported.
But under Jeanine Pirro, the U.S. attorneys office for the District of Columbia has won just half of its first eight criminal trials this year. The low conviction rate stems from several issues, including a jury pool that is skeptical of the DOJ under Trump, sources told CNN.
Asked by the outlet about her offices federal criminal trial record, Pirro insisted she was very proud of the conviction rate and claimed that acquittals and hung juries were not indicative of whats going on in the system.
She also responded to multiple questions by declaring, Hogwash!
