those indictments in a maximum of three hours or kind of maybe at the half. to a point. now our understanding is that the clerk has to manually type the indictment into the system here for it to become public. once that happens, we ll learn much more who is potentially named in the indictments here in fulton county shun all right. thank you. matt finn outside the fulton county courthouse tonight for us and joining us now legal spokesperson for president trump. alina harbor is back with us. let s go pick up where matt left off here. um, and that is the atlanta prosecutors inadvertently earlier today, revealing offenses to which they plan to charge president trump. um and then claiming it was fictitious . although matt riley pointed out, they did look authentic and, you know, facing a number of charges that we have spoke all throughout the night. rico anti racketeering laws conspiracy false statement asking public official to violate their oath of office. we re again we re waiting for
unindicted co conspirators. what you re watching on your screen is the cover of that page of the indictment if we can put that up on the screen that would be great here. now, with more we go back to law professor and fox news contributor jonathan turley. jonathan i m looking at that. if you look at the document that made it to the media talking about 10 specific indictments, how do you read it? using your background as the great law professor, you are. ah well, when you re talking about 10 of diamonds, it has that classic profile of racketeering case that s where willis really gained her fame as a local prosecutor, you often will have large numbers of people linked in a conspiracy to make out that case, you have to establish a pattern. just a relatively few crimes are may predicate crime list. that is a list of crimes

the indictment we saw earlier today on that website. um, but it talks about that s this is the official apparently violation of the georgia rico racketeering influenced and corruption act, solicitation and violation of oath by a public officer. conspiracy to commit impersonating a public officer, and then we ll start putting these up on the screen is quickly as we can, um, conspiracy to commit forgery. in the first degree. these are all felonies by the way. conspiracy to commit false statements and writings, conspiracy to commit false documents, comeere conspiracy to commit forgery and first degree conspiracy to commit false statements and writings, filing false documents, solicitation of violation of both by public officer false statement in writings, solicitation of violation of oath by a public officer, uh, and false statement and writings once again. again this
