For the third time in as many months, Trump is expected to be indicted on criminal charges. Yahoo News spoke with legal experts for answers to some frequently asked questions surrounding Trump’s latest potential indictment and more.
According to Bernstein, this charge refers to an agreement made with others to commit a crime, regardless of whether the crime itself was actually committed. “Jack Smith would have to lay out that Donald Trump and one other person agreed to commit an act that would defraud the U.S. government,” he said. “So it’s a very good sort of catchall charge.”“This is anyone who is trying to stop a witness or an informant from coming forward and giving correct testimony,” Bernstein explained.
Any time someone is charged with a felony, it’s serious for the defendant. But if Jack Smith’s office indicts Trump a second time, it could be even more serious for the U.S. justice and political system than the others.
