A grand jury voted Monday evening to bring a total of 13 felony charges against the former president, including violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations, or RICO, law, as well as violating his oath of office. A slate of others were indicted along with Trump, including former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani — one of Trump's attorneys — as well as former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows. The process played out live on national television, as cameras inside the courthouse staked out the clerk's office, where the indictment paperwork was signed and walked down to the courtroom, where it was presented to Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney. The criminal case comes as Trump leads the field of Republicans seeking their party’s 2024 presidential nomination. It's his fourth indictment this year, following charges in two federal cases, as well as a hush-money case in New York. =========================================================== Clients are reminded to adhere to all listed restrictions and to check the terms of their licence agreements.
