Indictment. This one handed up this week charges trump with four counts related to subverting the result of the 2020 election. Paula reid has more. Reporter former President Trump is expected to come here to washington to appear in person for this hearing which is expected to be both an initial appearance and also an arraignment. It is unclear if well see him arrive because this federal courthouse, it is designed to deal with people who have Security Details and vips. So it would be easy for him to pull into the underground garage and we wont get to see him at all. But once he is inside the federal courthouse where of course there are no cameras, he is effectively under arrest and it is expected that he will be processed like any other defendant but we dont expect a mug shot because those are used to identify suspects if they go on the lam. But this will be a quick procedural hearing. It will be in front of a magistrate judge. This is expected that he will hear the charges, have the op
Im max foster. Bianca is off today. But just ahead someone who engaged in that kind of bullying, a process that is fundamental to our system and to our self government, shouldnt be anywhere near the oval office. Sadly the president was surrounded by a group of crack pot lawyers that kept telling him what his itching ears wanted to hear. I strongly disagree with fitchs decision and i believe that it is entirely unwarranted. Hate has no place in our community. Even though nothing will bring my dad back, i feel like a weight has been lifted and i can breathe a sigh of relief. Live from london, this is cnn newsroom with maxes s fos and bianca nobilo.

Hes been fingerprinted and processed more recently in the case of florida. All of this should happen very quickly. And then we expect that the judge will start setting up a timeline, which the Justice Department wants to happen, obviously, before the 2024 election. Something that i think is very, very possible. What we know about the judge assigned to hear this case . Because i believe shes had some pretty strong dealings with january 6th defendants. Reporter she has. And look, the judge is a jamaican born obama appointee. Shes been on the bench since 2014. Like a lot of the judges there, they dealt with this violence at the capital, right across the way from the federal courthouse. They have been processing a lot of the january 6th defendants in that courthouse. One of the things that she and others have said is, you know, essentially that people who carried out this assault on American Democracy needed to have their day in court and needed to make sure that they paid the consequences
not an issue they have been particular strong on, but trying to channel tony blair s tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime, kind of mantra. i think this particular idea is pretty disastrous and ill thought through an unworkable. basically hand out more committee service, sentences, but usually getting the victims of anti social behaviour involved in the sentencing, whichjust behaviour involved in the sentencing, which just sounds like so many things could go wrong with that community service. people should be sentenced for the crime they commit, as the evidence dictates, not according to what the victims think ought to happen to them, but nonetheless it is very tough stance from the shadowjustice secretary, really setting out labour s stands and showing that as we get toward the run to election campaign, there is not any issue that labour is shying away from. they are taking the battle to issues and areas where the conservatives used to be safe. and areas where the
