statement. is there a conspiracy charge in here? i believe so. i don t have it in front of me right now. again, this is not biblically accurate because i m not looking at a charging document. i m looking at a summary sheet. there s language in there that might actually be reflecting a single count in stead of two, but i think there was a conspiracy count as well. that means there could be other indictments. have you been told if anyone else was indicted here? we weren t advised of anyone else being indicted. i have a theory that maybe some of the outrageous misconduct has affected the equation in some of the case, a potential target. but bottom line is right now all we know about is our client. what s your theory? well, over the last 24 hours, it s become public that members of the department of justice, led by jay bratt, who was a pivotal figure in this investigation this is the guy who wanted to do a raid before they even had a subpoena out.
prosecutors, jack smith s investigation of the documents continues right now. this is a special, live edition of the last word. the new york times is reporting tonight that the charges include willfully retaining national defense secrets and violations of the espionage act. making false statements, and an obstruction of justice conspiracy, according people familiar with the matter. donald trump has been ordered to surrender for arrest in processing an arraignment in the federal court in miami on tuesday at three pm. here s what donald trump s lawyer said on television tonight. this is not biblically accurate, because i m not looking at a charging document, i m looking at a summary sheet. so there is language in here that might be reflecting a single, counted set of two. but i think there was a conspiracy count as well. so that means that there could be other indictments. have you been told that anyone else is indicted here? we went advised of anyone else being indicted. i have a
charge, is there one on the willful retention of documents? yeah, 18 usc seven 93. and then there several 18 usc 15 12, 15 19, great television to say these numbers. the bottom line, it breaks down to the retention charge, as you would call it, obstructions and false statement. is there a conspiracy charge in here? i believe, so i don t have it in front of me right now. again, this is not typically accurate. i m not looking at a charging document, i m looking at a summary sheet. there is language in there that might actually be reflecting a single count instead of two. i think there s a conspiracy count as well. that means there could be other indictments, have you been told that anyone else was indicted here? we weren t advised of anyone else being indicted. i have a theory that maybe some of the outrageous misconduct has affected the equation, in some other case. potential target.
in here? i believe so. i don t have it in front of me right now, and again, this is not biblically accurate, because i am looking at a summary sheet, and so there is language in there that is reflecting a single count instead of two, but i believe there is a conspiracy count, too. and the important point is that the trump team is saying that it is ludicrous, and the former president did not speak to prosecutor, and so it is going to be important to see how they arrived at the false statement charge. thank you, evan. new insights from inside of the trump camp, and from trump himself in an off camera interview, he is saying that he will plead not guilty to the charges. christine hohmanns is there at
