Arnon Milchan, whose production credits include “Pretty Woman,” “12 Years a Slave,” and “Bohemian Rhapsody,” is a key witness in one of three cases brought against Netanyahu. According to the indictment against Netanyahu, Milchan gave Netanyahu and his wife a “supply line” of lavish gifts valued at nearly $200,000. Milchan, who is not charged in the case, greeted him in Hebrew over the two-way video broacdcast, using Netanyahu's nickname: “Shalom, Bibi!” Milchan is testifying in one of three cases being brought against Netanyahu. Milchan's aide, Hadas Klein, testified last year that the Netanyahu family “loves gifts.” The idea of a plea bargain has repeatedly surfaced, but prosecutors for now appear determined to see the trial through, despite reports last week that the judges warned them that the more serious crime of bribery will be hard to prove.
