The potential legal hurdles in the Trump trial come under scrutiny, including jury biases and the strategic defense maneuvers that could prolong the legal battle. Our discussion concludes with a forward-looking perspective on the legal repercussions for the planners of the January 6th events and the enduring significance of these proceedings.

Is RICO Next for Larry Nassar's Enablers? Shan Wu, a partner with Cohen Seglias, a former federal prosecutor and a CNN Legal Analyst, joins host Richard Levick of LEVICK to discuss the recent Capitol Hill hearing with Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles and three other elite gymnasts on the mishandling of the sexual abuse claims against Larry Nassar. Does the inaction and worse by multiple parties give rise to consideration of RICO sex trafficking charges against officials who facilitated and enabled Larry Nasser's abuse of children and young women?
Anti-Asian assaults are sky rocketing across the country so why aren't more hate crime charges being filed? Antoine Watson, the suspect in the murder of 84-year old Vichar Ratanapakdee, the elderly Thai man who died after being pushed to the ground, has only been charged with murder and elder abuse, but not a hate crime. Salman Muflihi, the man who stabbed a 36-year old man in the back in New York City was initial charged with a hate crime, but then authorities retracted it. Patrick Mateo, who shoved and injured an Asian woman to the ground in Queens after yelling racial slurs at her, was released one day after his arrest without bail and only charged with a misdemeanor. These incidents seem to be obvious hate crimes so why aren't we seeing charges and convictions? In this episode, May speaks with Shan Wu, attorney, former federal prosecutor and CNN legal analyst. He helps break down the complex nature of what constitutes a hate crime and why prosecutors need to be more courageous and creative in their pursuits. This episode is guaranteed to answer burning questions and clarify a lot of confusion.
Child tax credits are being debated in Congress, Representative Liz Cheney has strong words about Trump ahead of Tuesday’s Senate impeachment trial, and former federal prosecutor Shan Wu analyzes Trump’s defense.
He led the effort to impeach President Clinton, but now Ken Starr says 'like war, impeachment is hell.' Starr was one of several members of President Trump's legal team to speak at the Senate trial a day after the New York Times reported on Ambassador John Bolton's forthcoming book. According to the Times, Bolton alleges that Trump explicitly linked security assistance to Ukraine with an investigation into the Bidens. The bombshell revelation intensifies the fight over witnesses. CNN political director David Chalian unpacks the latest impeachment developments with CNN Politics congressional reporter Alex Rogers and CNN legal analyst Shan Wu.
President Trump is officially on trial. Lead House manager Adam Schiff began his opening argument today by emphasizing abuse of power and appealing to the Senate's 'common sense.' CNN congressional reporter Lauren Fox describes the historic scene and provides insight on the Democrats' ongoing search for four moderate Republicans to aid their quest for documents and witnesses. Plus, CNN legal analyst Shan Wu evaluates the arguments set forth by both sides with CNN political director David Chalian.
It's been a whirlwind 24 hours. Yesterday, explosive new evidence from Lev Parnas - the Ukrainian-American businessman with ties to Rudy Giuliani - suggested that the then-ambassador to Ukraine was under surveillance before she was quickly fired by the Trump administration. Last night, the Democratic presidential contenders rallied around the President's impeachment. And this morning, the House members who'll 'prosecute' the impeachment case were unveiled. CNN senior writer Zach Wolf dives into the latest developments with CNN White House correspondent Stephen Collinson and CNN legal analyst Shan Wu.
For just the fourth time in American history, the President faces articles of impeachment. Democrats claim President Trump committed two 'high crimes and misdemeanors' - abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. But did they pull their punches in order to protect center-left members of their caucus in swing districts? Plus, did the FBI director undercut one of the GOP's main defenses of the President? CNN political director David Chalian unpacks a historic day with CNN reporter & producer Marshall Cohen and CNN legal analyst Shan Wu.
Key witnesses blew off their scheduled testimony today, but Democrats filled the void by releasing transcripts of their depositions with former US Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch and former senior diplomat Michael McKinley. Among the many revelations is the bizarre involvement of Sean Hannity in getting Yovanovitch fired. Meanwhile, Kellyanne Conway dodges a clear question on quid pro quo, and President Trump defies whistleblower protections. CNN political director David Chalian previews the week ahead with Zachary Wolf, the senior writer behind the Impeachment Watch newsletter, and CNN legal analyst Shan Wu.
