politically motivated cases
washington
Former US President Donald Trump said Wednesday that the government is putting all its effort to put him in prison for more than 500 years, urging his supporters to fight against the “tyranny”, days after his indictment for the third time in what he called “politically motivated” cases.
In a fundraising email made public, Trump castigated US President Joe Biden stating that “with Crooked Joe’s corrupt [Department of Justice ] DOJ having unlawfully INDICTED yours truly yet again, reports indicate that I could now face a combined 561 YEARS in prison from the Left’s witch hunts.”
On Tuesday, 77 –year-old Trump was indicted for the third time in a case of overturning 2020 election results and capitol riots of January 6, 2021.
Trump was also earlier indicted two times in cases concerning hush money payments made to an adult film star and alleged mishandling of classified documents after leaving the White House.
The cases are being investigated by Special Counsel Jack Smith, whom Trump called a “deranged prosecutor”.
According to the 45-page indictment, Donald Trump was charged with conspiracy to defraud the US, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of an attempt to obstruct an official proceeding, and conspiracy against rights.
