Former President Donald Trump, the Republican Party’s leading presidential candidate, faces a crisis of indictment by a special prosecutor behind the January 6 intrusion into the Congress.<\/p>\n
On the 18th, former President Trump posted a post on his social media ‘TruthSocial’, saying, “‘Crazy’ Jack Smith, special prosecutor of the Department of Justice Joe Biden, sent me a letter on Sunday night.”\u00a0Former President Trump claimed, \u201cI was given only a short period of four days to report to the grand jury,\u201d and \u201cthis almost always means arrest and prosecution.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Washington Post (WP) pointed out that \u201cthis letter shows that former President Trump, a leading Republican candidate, is likely to face another prosecution crisis.\u201d Prosecutor Smith, appointed in November last year, has conducted a long-term investigation focusing on former President Trump’s role in the invasion of Congress.\u00a0It is known that the investigation focused on various meetings held by former President Trump from the end of 2020 right before the US presidential election to January 2021, and what discussions were held to overturn the results of the presidential election here.<\/p>\n
In fact, the fact that the official investigation letter was delivered to former President Trump means that prosecutors have secured enough evidence to prove the crime, and it can be interpreted as a sign of imminent prosecution, the WP said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
