"Judge's Unconventional Moves in Trump Case Raise Legal Eyebrows"

Judge Aileen Cannon overseeing Donald Trump's classified documents case has issued a court order with two legal scenarios, one of which could direct the jury to find Trump not guilty. The order instructs lawyers to propose jury instructions, with one scenario assuming Trump did not have authorization to keep classified documents and the other assuming he had authority as president under the Presidential Records Act. Critics, including former federal prosecutor Joyce Vance, have called the order "perplexing" and "crazy," while others have accused Cannon of bias towards Trump. The trial's start date is expected to be pushed back from May 20.
