NY DA Bragg invites Donald Trump to testify in grand jury; next prosecutorial step? An indictment




The New York Times broke the story, "Prosecutors Signal Criminal Charges for Trump are Likely."

When prosecutors are investigating cases in the grand jury, the last step before an indictment is often inviting the target of the investigation to testify in an effort to convince the grand jury not to indict them. This is precisely where the New York District Attorney's office is in their grand jury investigation of Trump's hush money crimes.

DA Alvin Bragg's prosecutors seem to be on the verge of asking the grand jury to indict Trump. Of course, we should not count our justice chickens before they hatch, particularly given Bragg's spotty track record on the Trump accountability front. Still, the signs are ominous for Trump, as this video discusses. - Glenn Kirschner - 03/09/2023.
