It seems really straightforward. If you falsify a business record that’s a misdemeanor. Of you do it with intent to cover up a crime it’s a felony.
It makes sense that the record falsifying person doesn’t have to have been the one that committed the crime, as long as he’s intentionally helping to cover it up.
Take it out of a political context. A CFO falsifies records to cover up the fact that his company bribed a local official. He knew about it and is covering it up even though it was the head of sales who paid the actual bribe.
This is the same concept as ‘aiding and abetting ‘ or ‘accesory after the fact’.

Did we listen to the same advisory opinions last night?

And when this conviction gets overturned, I guess it will still be a good law?
Look...If I was somebody running a major corporation, do you think it wise to headquarter in New York?
Let’s address the “overturning” of the conviction. Let me introduce you to the appellate court that will be the next stop for Justice Impacted President Trump -

Not if I were going to falsify business records.
If I walked into the firm where you were previously employed, with 30 auditors, unlimited time and unlimited budget, do you think I could find something Twinkie Bragg could prosecute?

I saw that pic that got deleted.
It's a publicity shot of the 6 Black women who are part of the 25 member appellate court.
Now, remember 1.5% of the lawyers in the country are black women.
What are the odds they comprise 25% of the appellate court.

Better odds than the fact that only 0% of all the US Presidents have been women, and 2% black?
