Former President Donald Trump says that he will be arrested on Tuesday. Trump called on his supporters to rally to his defense and 'to take back the country.'
Manhattan district attorney Alvin L. Bragg apparently will assert that Trump paid $130,000 to Daniels to buy her silence about an affair between the two of them. The intermediary for the alleged payoff was Trump’s former attorney, Michael D. Cohen. In addition, Bragg will assert that the payoff was falsely accounted for in Trump Organization's financial statements. Bragg reportedly will argue that the $130,000 payment violated campaign laws.
Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz says that an indictment would be a"targeted" prosecution. The U.S. criminal justice system will certainly be on trial if Trump is indeed arrested and tried. Bragg will use the fig leaf of a grand jury indictment to obfuscate his true motives: a progressive vendetta against Trump and publicity for future political campaigns for higher office.
In a grand jury proceeding, the prosecutor — the hidden power in the criminal justice system — presents all the evidence. The prosecutor decides whether exculpatory evidence will be introduced or not. In a grand jury, the person or persons being investigated are not allowed defense counsel. Some experts say that the current grand jury system is an unfair and biased system.
