IT'S BEEN A CRIME SCENE!
As of March 2024, Donald Trump has been personally charged wih 88 criminal offenses in four criminal cases. This total reflects charges related to Trump's attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 election, election interference in Georgia, falsifying business records after leaving the presidency. Donald Trump is the first former president in U.S. history to be criminally indicted.
A Manhattan grand jury approved a thirty-four count felony indictment against Trump for falsifying business records in the first degree in connection with his hush money payments to Stormy Daniels, made though Trump's attorney Michael Cohen and reported as legal expenses.
On June 9, 2023, Special Counsel Jack Smith charged Trump with thirty-seven felonies related to his handling and refusal to return hundreds of documents containing clasified information. On July 27, 2023, a grand jury issued an indictment alleging additional charges against Trump.
On August 1, 2023, Smith charged Trump with four federal criminal counts after a grand jury investigation into Trump's attempt to overturn the 2020 election, culminating in the January in the January 6th insurrection. In October 2023, Trump claimed in the case that he had absolutely immunity from prosecution for actions he took as president but Judge Chutkan, the trial judge in the case, rejected Trump's claim of absolute immunity, finding that "neither the Constitution nor American history supported the contention that a former president enjoyed the contention that a former president enjoyed total immunity from prosecution.
I confess, my list of Donald Trump's crimes most certainly is not complete. I could have easily missed a few. . . and he still has a long way to go on his presidential term of office.
