Donald Trump replaces his lawyers in the Georgia case hours before turning himself in

The former president of the United States donald trump has decided to replace the team of lawyers in charge of his defense in the case against him in Georgia hours before turning himself in in that state to be booked, US media reported.

According to CNN, Drew Findlingthe lawyer who has defended Trump in this case, will be replaced by Steven Sadowa professional with an office in Atlanta whose website defines him as a “special legal advisor for the defense of white collar crimes and high profile cases.”

A source close to Trump explained to the same chain that it is not about Findling’s performance, while another justified the change because Sadow is “the best criminal defense attorney in Georgia.”

In a statement, Trump’s new defender in Georgia considered that the former president should never have been charged in this case and is “innocent of all charges against him.”

He added that his team hoped the case would be thrown out or that an “open-minded” jury would ultimately find Trump not guilty and accused prosecutors of acting at the bidding of the former president’s opponents.

“Prosecutors who tried to advance or serve the ambitions of the president’s (Trump) opponents have no place in our judicial system,” added the former president’s new lawyer.
