Bragg could wait to file Trump indictment — no matter when grand jury votes: experts
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg could take “as long as he wants” to actually file an indictment against former President Donald Trump — no matter when the grand jury votes, experts say.that has been hearing evidence against the former president in the DA’s Stormy Daniels “hush money” investigation since late January.
Any delay could be an attempt “to keep the arrest and arraignment process from being a circus,” Uris said. “But it’s going to be a circus no matter what.” “I think an atmosphere has been created that lends itself to the possibility of political violence and I do think that law enforcement will take every opportunity to try to tamp that down.”
Another former Brooklyn prosecutor, Julie Rendelman, agreed that because a former president being indicted would be an “unparalleled event,” Bragg would want “as much time as possible” to prepare “for what’s to come and allow law enforcement along with the court to put safety measures in place for any potential public unrest.”
The process of voting on an indictment is much faster than jury deliberations at trial — which can take days and even weeks — since only 12 of the 23 members of the grand jury need to agree and since the bar for an indictment is much lower than for a conviction.
