Roger Stone and the Department of Justice have been sparring for a month over whether jurors can be shown a four minute and twenty second clip from the film.
"On multiple occasions," the indictment says, Stone told associate Randy Credico to "do a 'Frank Pentangeli' before [the House intelligence committee] in order to avoid contradicting" him.
In July, the Justice Department asked Judge Amy Berman Jackson to show jurors the clip in order to reveal "what Stone intended to communicate.", filed in U.S. District Court in Washington, cites an email from Stone to Credico in 2018 in which Stone mimics Pentangeli's language from the scene. "A fictional demonstration of Mafia intimidation does so much more than the government's purported explanation of context, seeks to introduce. Its introduction is harmful to a fair trial. But introduction of the movie does more," Rogow wrote.
"As opposed to the message which was a joke between friends, or a suggestion to follow [Credico's] lawyer's advice and remain silent. It implies that Stone kidnapped [Credico's] brother and kept him hostage. It implies that [Credico] is in a witness protection program like Pentangeli, who has to reside at an Army barracks because of the threat to Pentangeli's safety," Rogow wrote.
