I expect he will be denied bail if they can show the evidence against him is strong enough. Even if you have enough money, that’s just not a guarantee. They don’t set the bail at $50mn or something, it’s just not an option offered.
The boring but probably correct answer is he never breathes free air again, and his best case scenario is avoiding the death penalty.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't the jury decide not to convict him and he'd be a free man? I've read that in some places at least. Or is there a mechanism to prevent that?
It’s theoretically possible but it requires a justice system that is actually blind. A justice system that didn’t just assign him a judge who’s married to a dude that was a former executive at a pfizer and still holds hundreds of thousands of dollars in healthcare companies, which apparently is something that she feels doesn’t require her to recuse herself even given the stature of this case
The jury selection process will be rigorous and will ensure that the people sitting on the panel are sympathetic to capitalists
Karen Friedman Agnifilo is an absolute pro who worked in the system for 30 years, I think he's in very capable hands and if its unduly stacked against in him, I gurantee she will be very vocal about that publicly and she has a massive platform inside and outside the courtroom since she's an original player in the Meidas Touch Network which is fantastic.
There's no other lawyer or person in general I would trust more than her for something life or death like this
