Prosecutor DePhillipis with final rebuttal: * This case isn't even close * Reminds jurors that 5 months after meeting w/FBI (Baker), Sussmann takes tip to the CIA and notes say he wasn't representing a client (BIG!) * Sussmann bills everything to the Clinton Campaign * Says there are numerous pieces of evidence that show Sussmann lied without a reason of doubt * He buys thumb drives on 9/13/16 and then delivers thumb drives on 9/19/16 to James Baker * Note of Baker, Anderson and others (Priestap) say Sussmann said he was not representing a client * Says Sussmann, an experienced lawyer represents one thing to Congress and another to someone else, he knows exactly what he is doing * Says defense analogy of a magic trick is nonsensical * People focus on little things for a reason: Why did Sussmann buy thumb drives and make a point to bill to the Clinton campaign? * Sussmann's motive is paramount: he wanted to lull James Baker away from the idea he was representing a client * Had he told the truth, he knew Baker may not have taken the meeting * In Sussmann's congressional testimony (Dec 2017), he admitted he was representing a client (Joffe) and concealed his representation of Clinton * Billing thumb drives to Clinton, going to the press before and after the FBI meeting. It wasn't about national security, it was about conducting opposition research into Donald J. Trump * Sussman's statement to James Baker on 9/19/16 was false and he knew it to be untrue when he said it. * Sussmann had the capability to influence the FBI. The government only has to prove Sussmann's statement had the ability to influence the FBI * The prosecution asks jurors to review testimony, billing records and Perkins Coie contrats with Neustar, Fusion GPS and Hillary FA * An engagement letter shows Sussmann represented Rodney Joffe as well as his company * The defendant, Fusion GPS and Joffe were working with Clinton campaign on opposition research * Shows evidence (exhibit) of July 29, 2016 initial meeting w/ Marc Elias and Fusion GPS. Later that day an email with the parties and HFA, showing subject: 'Hillary'. A 30 minute meeting was billed to Hillary that day. * Jury has seen indisputatable evidence of Sussmann billing Hillary campaign (Evidence of July 31, 2016 communications w/ Marc Elias discussion on Alfa Bank Server) (Aug 12, 2016 1.5 hrs billed to Hillary, confidential meeting w/Elias, Fusion GPS and Joffe) (Aug 15, 2016 - Origins of Alfa Bank allegations: Joffe tasks Novick with opposition research on Donald Trump and associates) * Shows email from ex. Reuters reporter Horsenball where he says he knows Alfa Bank is under investigation. Suggests Sussman leaked this info * Says case is not about conspiracies, it's about truth; reiterates that politics should not enter into decision * Says the FBI didn't do everything right in this case * Brings up the defense analogy w/Statue of Liberty and suggests its real meaning: 'truth' -- and says Sussmann used the FBI for personal gain Final Statement: * Defendant is guilty as charged
