CNN’s Honig: Prosecutors ‘Took Some Cheap Shots’ Yesterday in Their Examination of Stormy Daniels

‘It‘s way beyond the scope of anything the judge was willing to allow’

EXCERPT:

HONIG: “Kate, if we think about this, strategically, prosecutors have stressed to the jury throughout this case, they've stressed to the public in their public statements this is not a case about sex, this is a case about business records, falsifying business records. It's our bread and butter here at the DA's office. It's what we do all the time. We do it to ensure business integrity. OK. Why then did prosecutors go into so much extraneous detail about the sexual encounter to the point where Judge Merchan sustained numerous objections he found that the questions were inappropriate? And I have to say this also, Kate, prosecutors took some cheap shots yesterday in their examination of Stormy Daniels.”
