Trump Grand Jury to Reconvene as Bragg Considers Indictment Despite Immense Backlash

The grand jury responsible for considering an indictment against 45th President Donald Trump will reconvene on Monday.

The reconvening of the jury comes after their meeting was suddenly canceled on Wednesday last week and then delayed until today.

The grand jury did meet on Thursday, however, they did not consider the Trump case.

Prosecutors could call more witnesses in the case or present formal charges which would be the final step for the grand jury to decide whether to indict Trump or not, as reported by the Wall Street Journal.

“The Manhattan D.A. Witch Hunt against me is DEAD, no evidence at all, & it has been conclusively proven that I did nothing wrong!” Trump wrote on Truth Social last week, adding, “The evidence against their ‘Star’ witness, however, is overwhelming.”

As previously reported by the DC Enquirer, chaos was reigning in the District Attorney’s office and doubts were being raised about the wisdom of bringing their weak case forward. 

PRESIDENT TRUMP SAYS ALVIN BRAGG IS INTERFERING IN ELECTIONS WITH POTENTIAL INDICTMENT

Sources within the office told The New York Post that Bragg was concerned following the testimony of former Cohen lawyer Bob Costello on Monday which could lead to the grand jury voting against an indictment.

“The only thing I’m doing is trying to tell the truth to the grand jurors because I read all these lies in the media that are being promoted by one side,” Costello said to the press following his testimony. “Listen if they want to go after Donald Trump and they have solid evidence, so be it. But Michael Cohen is far from solid evidence.”

“I wouldn’t have touched a guy like Michael Cohen, especially if he’s a convicted perjurer,” added the former deputy chief of the criminal division in the Southern District of New York.

Due to the innate weakness in the case and Costello’s testimony, assistant district attorneys are reportedly “shaking their heads” about Bragg’s judgment in bringing the case.

”They don’t understand how this case is going forward,” the source said. “These ADAs are not fans of Trump but they are professional lawyers and know the law.”‘

The reconvening of the grand jury against Trump showcases that Bragg may still be considering an indictment despite the shaky legal groundwork.
