Public statements made by the defendants and their representatives do not count. This was not a statement, this was a blatant rewriting of events and testimonial using his position and platform as a way to influence a possible outcome and jury pool. There is a reason lawyers tell their clients to let them do the talking at press conferences and it's not just because they might say something incriminating.
But you're including every single person in America as a jury pool. That means any public statements would count as jury tampering, and yes that would have to include the attorneys themselves. Hell, that would include people like Nick Rieketa regarding Kyle Rittenhouse.
You're standard isn't reasonable.
Yes, he's trying to influence public opinion, but he's not engaging in jury tampering; otherwise we'd have to have a gag order on all public commentary.
Technically, everyone who has a license or permit is a potential juror. (at least in florida, I'm not sure how they do it on other states.)
It's a very fine line in this situation, but his laying out the crime according to him, his past rhetoric against people who disagree with him, and past attempts at influencing public opinion, I believe this could count. It's not a violent call to action, it is an influence scheme, which is still considered jury tampering. Like I said, there is a reason they make a base public statement and let their lawyers do the talking.
What jurists? Wait, you mean a public statement? No, press releases and public statements of innocence do not count as jury tampering.

Comment Reported for: Rule 12 - Falsehoods
I don't see how.
I have reviewed my own statements and found no evidence of wrongdoing.
