Former President Donald Trump has been indicted by a grand jury investigating the events of Jan. 6, 2021. Here are some questions and answers about what this means, and what’s next.
Before Trump, no American president was indicted on criminal charges either while in office or afterward.
Besides the indictment over the events of Jan. 6, Trump is at risk of being indicted in Fulton County, Georgia, over the post-election calls he made to Georgia state officials and other efforts to overturn the election. The two other existing indictments currently playing out are elsewhere. The case over payments to Stormy Daniels, the adult film actor, is being tried in New York, where Trump was based when the alleged crimes occurred. The federal documents case is playing out in South Florida, near Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort, where the government says he stashed classified material.
The indictment alleges that Trump and others"conspire" to"obstruct" and"defeat" the"lawful federal government function by which the results of the presidential election are collected, counted and certified by the federal government."
