Former US President, Donald Trump may soon face charges of conspiracy, civil rights violations, and obstruction of justice following a Justice Department investigation into his actions on and before Jan. 6, 2021.
Trump, 77, said his attorneys had received a target letter on Sunday from special counsel Jack Smith (pictured top left) in connection with charges stemming from the Capitol riot.
The letter cited potential violations by the former president, accusing him of conspiring to commit an offense or to defraud the United States, deprivation of rights under color of law, and tampering with a witness, victim, or informant
No one else has been charged in the Jan. 6 investigation, and there was no mention of charges of sedition or insurrection, an anonymous source told the outlet.
The charges would mark the third indictment this year for the former president, who has already been hit with 37 counts by prosecutor Smith for his alleged mishandling of classified documents and by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg for purportedly falsifying business records related to alleged “hush money” payments to porn star Stormy Daniels before the 2016 election.
Trump motivated thousands of supporters for a rally to protest the 2020 election in January 2021, urging them to march to the Capitol and help overturn the results.
The ex-commander-in-chief also pressured former Vice President Mike Pence to decline to certify ballots from key swing states.
The 45th US president, is the first sitting or former commander-in-chief in US history to be indicted by the federal government.
