With a K: "Sir, we're going to need a bigger laptop"

Exciting boring update in Trump trial—the jury has a note!

@fleerultra.bsky.social Get ready for the cable pundits to go wild with speculation

The jury note contains 4 requests: (1) David Pecker testimony regarding phone convo during investor meeting, (2) Pecker Testimony related to McDougal's life rights agreement, (3) Pecker testimony regarding Trump Tower meeting, and (4) Cohen testimony regarding Trump Tower meeting (via Anna Bower)

Kyle Cheney jumps on the speculation train early, but why not: "Apply all the caveats here, but first instinct is this is not welcome news for Trump. Prosecutors spent a lot of their lengthy close focusing on value of Pecker's testimony. This is the roadmap they asked jurors to follow."

SECOND JURY NOTE: "We the jury request to rehear the judge's instructions." (via Anna Bower, Lawfare)

Judge Merchan asks if the laptop the jurors were given containing exhibits into evidence has Wi-Fi access. When told that it does, he asks if the Wi-Fi can be disabled. (via Anna Bower)

"Sir, we're going to need a bigger laptop"

I'm picturing the laptop that a courthouse keeps around to provide to a jury, and it has a Windows 95 sticker on the cover.

“The jury requests to know what we should type next to the c:/> prompt.”

"It says, please insert Disc #2. We only have discs 1-17 _except_ 2."

"Now it's saying 'Abort, Retry, Fail' . Requesting clarification on the difference between Abort and Fail"

"And we've retried like two dozen times."

Then finally: “the document you seek, does not exist”.
