Trump's new lawyer gave advise to Epstein for years!

With his impeachment trial looming in just nine days, former president Trump announced he had a new team of lawyers on Sunday, including David Schoen, who met with disgraced businessman and paedophile Jeffrey Epstein about representing him before his death.

Based on the tone of their five-hour conversation, Schoen is skeptical about the circumstances of Epstein’s death. “I don’t believe it was suicide. … I think someone killed him. I don’t like to speculate. I’m not a conspiracy theorist,” he told the Atlanta Jewish Times in an interview Sunday.

“It was just the two of us in a room, though other people came and went” during their Aug. 1 meeting at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York, Schoen said. “We talked about the future, all sorts of plans for the case, things he hadn’t thought about before. “He was very upbeat, eager to go. I’ve heard from other people who told me how much that meeting meant to him.”

No stranger to controversy, David Schoen weighs in on police misconduct, representing Roger Stone and having some fun acting in a Jeffrey Epstein docudrama. He often appears on Fox News to discuss high-profile criminal defense work.

Schoen has worked with accused rapists, capital murderers and international narcotics dealers. “I represented all sorts of reputed mobster figures: alleged head of Russian mafia in this country, Israeli mafia and two Italian bosses, as well a guy the government claimed was the biggest mafioso in the world.”

On a current hot topic, Schoen said, “I think the so-called ‘defund the police movement’ is misguided, and the violence attending the protests is way out of control and inexcusable.

committed suicide. If someone killed Epstein, surely trump is a suspect to have had it arranged. He knew Epstein for 10 years. Guess they all can compartmentalize?
