Trump Lawyers Told During Special Counsel Meeting to Expect Another Indictment

Trump’s team met prosecutors at the office of special counsel Jack Smith early Thursday ahead of a potential indictment.

Donald Trump’s legal team met with federal prosecutors at the office of special counsel Jack Smith early Thursday and were told to expect another indictment, according to NBC News. Attorneys Todd Blanche and John Lauro met with prosecutors, including Smith, for about an hour, according to several reports. Earlier, NBC News reported that Trump's political and legal teams were making preparations for a federal grand jury to vote on charges against Trump as early as Thursday. Trump himself announced earlier this month that he’d been told he’s a target of Smith’s investigation into the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol and attempts to overturn the result of the 2020 presidential election. The letter to Trump reportedly mentioned three federal statutes concerning the deprivation of rights, conspiracy to defraud the U.S., and witness tampering, according to NBC News sources. In a statement to NBC News, a spokesperson for Trump said the network’s report on the meeting with Smith was “incorrect.”
