On This Day In History
March 30th, 2023: Donald Trump is indicted by the New York grand jury, making him the first US president (current or former) to face criminal charges.
April 4th, 2023: Donald Trump has been arrested.
August 4th, 2023: Here’s the update!
Former president Donald Trump has three indictments, meaning criminal prosecutions. They are as follows:
The People of the State of New York v. Donald J. Trump (the Stormy Daniels case). Trump faces 34 state felony charges of falsifying business records. He has pleaded not guilty. The trial is set for March 25th, 2024.
United States of America v. Donald J. Trump, Waltine Nauta, and Carlos De Oliveira (the classified documents case). Trump faces 40 federal felony charges regarding his handling of classified documents, largely violations of the Espionage Act, as well as making false statements and conspiracy to obstruct justice. He has pleaded not guilty. The trial is set for May 20th, 2024.
United States of America v. Donald J. Trump (The 2020 election/Jan 6th insurrection case). Trump faces 4 federal charges: conspiracy to defraud the United States; obstructing an official proceeding related to the election; and conspiracy against rights. He has pleaded not guilty. We expect to find out the trial date on August 28th, 2023.
A fourth investigation has not yet brought charges against Trump, though we expect it to. it refers to Donald Trump’s actions in the 2020 elections in the state of Georgia, particularly concerning his phone call with Georgia Secretary of State Raffensperger. In this call, he pressures Raffensperger to adjust the collected votes, making Trump win. A grand jury is currently debating whether to bring charges against Donald Trump in this case; we expect the decision to be made sometime in August 2023.
If Donald Trump is found guilty of even a single charge, he will be a felon. From there, it will be up to the judge if he pays a fine or serves jail time. Felony status will not prevent Trump from running for President or becoming President (if he wins). Depending on his registration and the specific crimes and punishment, felony status may prevent Trump from voting in the election he is running in.
August 14th, 2023: The fourth grand jury has indicted Donald Trump.
State of Georgia v. Donald J. Trump (The Trump-Raffensperger phone call case). Trump faces 10 state charges including felony racketeering and multiple conspiracy charges. Trump has not yet entered a plea, and we do not yet know the trial date.
This was the final investigation we have been expecting to bring charges against Donald Trump.
August 24th, 2023: Donald Trump has been booked at Fulton County Jail on multiple felony charges. His mugshot has been released.
