On Trial For Ghost Gun Man Defends Himself By Crossing Drug Expert Then ATF Nexus Man

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Maxwell Book

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Jan 25 -  In the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York a man charged with drug and "ghost gun" offenses is defending himself at trial.

  On January 24, the trial proceeded before Judge Lewis J. Liman, with defendant Eric Lesane's probation officer on the witness stand being cross-examined... by Lesane. He ended each question with, "Is that correct?" Sometimes it was, and sometimes it wasn't.

  Judge Vernon S. Broderick had the case but, now presiding over the death penalty trial of Sayfullo Saipov, on January 6 he docketed an order that trial would proceed before Judge Liman, and that the parties must proposed redactions to the sealed Docket Number 51 by January 9. It was ordered unsealed on January 10 - but the link is still dead as of January 24.

 On January 25, Lesane crosse examined the government's narcotics expert (did her tests reveal the origin of the cannabis? No); next up was ATF firearms interstate nexus expert Eric Dornbusch, who said he began with DoD then the Chicago anti-gang unit, Brooklyn arson and explosives unit and now Hudson Valley. The courtroom had various exhibit boxes. The trial continues.
 
  The case is US v. Lesane, 22-cr-110 (Liman)
