    “Most significant” fact is that Trump directed them to do the crimes. Their deal doesn’t really matter, their testimony will be damning.

      Unless they renege? What would be the consequences?

        You get resentenced by the judge for what you’ve pled guilty for and have a trial for what the prosecution withdrew.

          Thank you. I knew about double jeopardy, I did not know the judge could resentence.

            On further research, I’m actually not sure that they can. More they can wait for the person to testify before they sentence. Once they rule, they no longer have jurisdiction unless it’s some sort of suspended sentence.

            Part of the plea will be the agreed testimony. They have it on record and they cannot change that story on the stand without hanging themselves

              If they’re threatened, they may be willing to take contempt charges and not testify.
