At this rate they don’t need anyone to “flip”. At the end of the day these morons got busted doing illegal shit and there is more than enough evidence that they don’t need someone else’s testimony. Flip or not then are fucked.
Was the footage actually erased? I thought that Trump’s crew asked him to erase it (but he either wasn’t able or willing to) but the actual issue was he initially lied to the Feds saying they never asked him to erase it. After getting a new attorney he’s recanted and told the feds that they did ask him to.
I never saw mention of the tapes actually being erased but maybe I just missed that detail? I assumed the Feds had the tapes.
I could be wrong. But my understanding is that the guy didn’t have the ability to erase the security footage even if he wanted to. That was part of the whole discussion about “the boss” wanting the footage erased. The IT guy lied about even being asked at all when he had a Trump lawyer, then recanted that when he got his own public defender.

The guy who erased the footage already flipped…
He had a trump lawyer and said it was never erased. Then he switched to a public defender and recanted his statement that it wasn’t erased.
Even if he didn’t take a deal, that counts as “flipping”

Yeah that was my understanding, too but I wasn’t sure if I was remembering correctly. :)
