In a seismic development for American politics, the Department of Justice indicted former President Donald Trump on 37 felony charges on June 9, 2023. The 49-page indictment detailed the allegations and established evidence against the former president and resulted from an exhaustive probe by a special counsel that began at the beginning of the year.
With the intense due diligence involved prior to charges, over 90 percent of all federal indictments end in a guilty verdict.
The charges levied against Trump include:
Conspiracy.
Dozens of counts of mishandling classified documents.
Violations of the Espionage Act.
Mr. Trump is the first American president, present or former, to be indicted on criminal charges, though these are expected to be the first of several. He has yet to face charges for his involvement in the January 6, 2021, insurrection, for which over 1,000 people have already been arrested or convicted. And he's also facing federal election interference charges in Georgia.
Trump, who consistently refutes all accusations of criminal wrongdoing, immediately played the victim card and described the indictment as "another witch hunt." He used the occasion to launch another fundraising campaign and market paraphernalia trumpeting his victimization. A civil indictment, which he lost earlier in the year, netted him $12 million in funds. Though a current presidential candidate, as of this writing on June 9, 2023, his opponents have yet to condemn the former president's mishandling of top secret, nuclear, and other classified information and its consequences to the United States' security.
The trial may be the most high-profile trial in American history. Under US Law, Mr. Trump and his co-conspirator are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. That trial is expected to occur between September 2023 and March 2024.
