Randy Credico, a mercurial radio host, comedian, and impressionist, is now a key witness in the government’s case against Roger Stone.
On the first day of his trial, onetime Trump campaign adviser Roger Stone fell ill. Another person collapsed in the courtroom, and people tangentially related to the case squabbled in the hallway. On day two, an ex-FBI agent read aloud lewd, profanity-laced text messages Stone sent an associate. Later, the judge scolded Stone’s lawyer for being too boring.Credico, a mercurial radio host, comedian, and impressionist, is now a key witness in the government’s case against Roger Stone.
At the heart of the government’s case was the role Credico played as a conduit between Stone and Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks – the web operation that published thousands of stolen emails as part of an effort to hurt the campaign of President Trump’s 2016 political opponent, Hillary Clinton.
More than anything, though, Credico’s testimony was viewed by many as just bizarre. He made references to everyone from Dick Tracy to a 1950s Campbell’s soup advertisement. The prosecutor conducting the interview repeatedly interrupted Credico – the government’s own star witness –to try and nudge him back on track.
