In this episode of #SistersInLaw Sidebar, Jill Wine-Banks and Joyce Vance answer your questions on everything from Judge Cannon’s continued defenses of Trump, Epstein, war, and more.  Together, they discuss the prospect that Judge Cannon will be disbarred for protecting Trump, if there is a way to access the Jack Smith report that she sealed, whether executives and other employees can be considered legally responsible for corporate crimes, how the Epstein files are stored and managed, the ability of the UN and international law to prosecute US citizens for war crimes, and what determined the structure of the Constitution.
