Special counsel Jack Smith made a statement on the indictment unsealed today against former President Donald Trump.
Said Smith: “This indictment was voted by a grand jury of citizens in the Southern District of Florida and I invite everyone to read it in full to understand the scope and the gravity of the crimes charged.”
He added: “We have one set of laws in this country and they apply to everyone… My office will seek a speedy trial on this matter, consistent with the public interest and the rights of the accused.”
