We got a real roadmap as to how this case is going to do. Rachel, one of the things i keep Hearing Aboutnd reading about is how complex this actually is, when you want to make the dots to go together, for some people its not going to rise to the level in their mind of a crime. Its up, obviously, to the prosecutor to make that case this isnt just about hush money, but here is why this is a Felony Offense under the law. Did they do that . What was a clear, cogent story
