It would be a tragedy if we were losing one person to drug overdose every day.
Even five, seven, or twelve people.
It would be unimaginable if fifteen families a day
received news of a lost loved one to overdose.
But in Canada, we lose 20 people to overdose.
Every single day.
That's a crisis.
At CAMH, we won't back down until there's no one left behind.

I'll see I'm a trip where I go.
I'm giving big flavor.
I'm your cool red refreshing drink savior.
Alan's grandberry cocktail.
There's nothing like it.
The silent witnesses.
This is prosecution number 101, as they say.
If you're a prosecutor and you're investigating a case
especially if it's a case involving people who are wealthy
There's often staff people around who are the silent the silent witnesses, right?
They're the people who especially wealthy individuals
Act as if they don't exist. They act that they're not there. You'll have the housekeepers, the drivers,
the maintenance workers, the guy building,
you're doing your building and your renovation
and your house, whatever it is,
you can't imagine what they are privy to
and what they see.
They don't just go in and clean or cook
or whatever it is that they're hired
to do and don't have eyes and ears. And oftentimes these high net worth individuals will speak
in front of them, leave things out. You know, like I said, we've gotten it when I was a prosecutor,
the maids in particular are the ones who they see everything, they know everything,
they know where all the bodies are buried, as you, if you will.
And CNN has reported that Donald Trump is, went ballistic when he found out that those
are the very individuals who federal prosecutors contacted and is going, are going to testify
against him at his Mar-a-Lago, his Mar-a-Lago trial.
So I'm not surprised by that. I'm not surprised that Jack
Smith, who's a lifetime lifelong prosecutor, we both came up in the Manhattan DA's office together
in the early 90s. And it worked with him there at that time. You know, he was trained. This is
exactly what he and I were both trained to do. So I'm not surprised. This is what he's doing.
And you know, what CNN is reported is that a
plumber, a maid, a chauffeur, and a woodworker are the staffers that will be contacted and potentially
called to testify against Donald Trump. So it'll be very interesting. Some of them are going to talk
about, you know, the fact that he left papers around. One of them thought that they were movie props because don't
forget that classified documents are marked and very dramatically in a way to
show that they are classified so that there's no mistake. No one that you'll
know that this is what you're dealing with and so treat them as such. And, you know, these low level eyes and ears of
Mar-a-Lago are going to show us a lot about what the club is
like, right? Just they're going to tell us what it was like
generally speaking, not just the documents themselves, but set
the stage, really set the stage for, how do you get in? How
secure is it? Is it, you know, something that you have to worry about?
Is it a secure place that nobody can get in or are the doors open and the rooms open and where these documents were found?
How irresponsible and dangerous was it for him to leave all of these documents and boxes and papers in various rooms?
And these are people who don't have an axe to grind one way or another, right?
These are people who are neutral, who are just neutral witnesses,
who are going to be able to tell it like it is.
Not anyone who's entered into a cooperation deal,
not someone who's necessarily loyal to one side or the other,
just very neutral, salt of the earth people,
who will be able to testify about
what went on and what they saw.
And so I think this is going to be very critical for the prosecution and Jack Smith to be able
to really put the pieces together of their case.
There was a woodworker from South Florida that testified about installing crown molding in Trump's bedroom in February 2022.
And it's going to testify that he noticed papers.
And there were stacks of papers that may have been classified.
And he eventually told investigators he's the one who said they might be a movie
prop. So that'll be I think really very interesting. There was
also a maid who was the personal maid to Donald Trump's suite
where he and his wife live. And she is apparently going to also
testify some maintenance workers who were there are also going
to testify. And so I think it'll be, I think this will really paint a picture.
Reporting is that, you know, that, that when Donald Trump learned that this was going to
happen, he was not happy and apparently went ballistic.
But I think that, you know, that makes sense because they will have seen a lot.
So the other thing I think they're going to be able to testify to is how many people were in and out, right, at the social club,
the weddings and movie premieres and fundraisers, etc. And then of course there's the chauffeur,
right, the driver who will drive Donald Trump around while he has his conversations, you know,
he's not one to necessarily text or email,
but he is one who will have spoken, right?
And maybe spoken in front of these drivers.
So that will be interesting to see exactly what they say.
So stay tuned, watch for these silent witnesses, right?
The witnesses who you don't expect,
and they're gonna be the ones
so I think are gonna be critical to Jack Smith's case.
Now, let's see if it's actually going to go forward
when it's scheduled to go forward in May of 2024.
Good health starts with good habits.
Quip makes it easy by delivering
all the oral care essentials you need to care for your mouth.
The Quip Electric Toothbrush has timed sonic vibrations
with 30 second pulses to guide.
A dentist recommended two-minute clean.

The Quip Toothbrush also has multi-use travel cover
that doubles as a mirror mount for less clutter and reusable
handles in a range of sleek metal hues as well as bright plastic colors sure to make a

And so you know the electric toothbrush isn't all that quip has to offer.
I love the water flosser.
It hits all the right spots with gentle or deep clean pressure and the touch of a button,
the quip mints and gum are incredibly refreshing too.
I truly have equipped a thing for my entire dental care routine and I don't know where I'd be without
them. I really love them. I love the sponsor and I'm so happy that they have sent us this and we
can use them and that they are our sponsor. So listen, it's time to skip the batteries and snap
into healthy habits with the new rechargeable electrical to electric toothbrush.

Now, you know, don't forget that that that judge Eileen Cannon, I apologize.
She has, you know, she's temporarily ruled and ruled today that she is going to keep the
trial date where it is, but she also said she's open to potentially extending it given the volume
of discovery. There's been more discovery that's come out.
And she thinks that it's much more
than she originally was told.
So she kind of is signaling that she's open
to moving the trial day.
I think she's been open to it for a very long time.
She's every time that she,
someone's asked her for additional time
to, you know, any time the
defense is asked for additional time for something she always has given it, but she says, oh, but we're
keeping the trial date. This is, I've said it many times, this is death by a thousand cuts,
because you can't keep moving dates and pushing them closer to the trial and then expect the
actual trial to happen. That's just not realistic because there's going to be so many things that bump into the trial date.
And of course, he's saying he needs more time to prepare because of the other cases.
So, let's see, if, you know, right now he's scheduled, the case that's scheduled to go first is the case in Washington, D.C.,
Tanya Chetkin, and the, the, the, the Jansix, you know, the the election still in election case. So let's see if that actually does go in March. I know Judge Chutkin has said that is definitely going in March, but the but Donald Trump is appealing some of the rulings, the presidential immunity in particular that has to go to the DC circuit and could go up to the Supreme Court. So that could get delayed if they were to do that.
The next one that would be scheduled to go is the New York
criminal case, which involves stormy Daniels
and that election interference case.
So that's supposed to go March 24th.
And so let's see if that one goes.
And then the third one is supposed to be Judge Eileen
Cannon. Now it's, I'm not a betting person, but I would bet 90%. She's going to move that
trial date in May and, and that she's setting it up to do that. So why hasn't she moved it yet?
Why hasn't she changed the date yet? I think some could, you know, if you're a conspiracy theorist like me, no, I'm just
kidding, but if you're someone who, you know, is it, if she's really kind of doing the bidding for
Donald Trump the way it seems she is and all her rulings are such, one could suggest potentially
that she is not moving the trial date because guess who will swoop in and pick that, that may date
before the November election, Fannie Willis, who still doesn't have a trial date because guess who will swoop in and pick that that may date before the November election
Fannie Willis who still doesn't have a trial date so
So you know perhaps judge canon is waiting so that
So that Fannie Willis can't take that date and and there's no case that happens before the election
But that's where we are right now and where we're teed up to to be
I think the more we that this case is not a hard I think the more we this case is not a hard case.
The Mar-a-Lago documents case is not a hard case. There's no doubt these are national defense
information. There's no doubt that he didn't keep it securely. There's no doubt that he obstructed
justice and lied when asked for them back. Had he given them back? We wouldn't be here, but he wanted to keep them.
And he was very, you know,
did very dangerous things with it.
So, you know, his, his, this is a witch hunt.
This is by Joe Biden trying to keep him from, you know,
winning is a ridiculous argument.
He declared, he knew that these indictments
were coming when he declared.
It's the other way around these investigations were ongoing, the indictments were coming when he declared, it's the other way around. These investigations were ongoing,
the indictments were coming,
and he declared his candidacy
so that he wouldn't be held accountable
so that he could make these claims,
not the other way around.
So let's not let him change the narrative
or change the facts.
Let's just keep the facts for what they are.
But this is not a complicated case.
This is, yes, there's some classified documents,
but and there's some special procedures
under the Classified Information Procedures Act
that have to be sorted out ahead of time,
but it's nothing that people have in government
hasn't done many, many, many times.
So there's no reason this case shouldn't go.
It's not that complicated.
The discovery is not that voluminous. And there's lots of witnesses. So if it does get delayed,
it's going to be because Judge Cannon is, you know, not is giving Trump what he wants,
frankly, this case should go and can go. And it's a very strong case and it's only getting
stronger with time. So thanks so much for listening. I'm Karen Friedman Agnifolo with Legal AF.
