Grand Jury to Reportedly Vote Wednesday on Possible Trump Indictment
NEW YORK (Sputnik) - The Manhattan grand jury will reportedly most probably vote on Wednesday about whether to indict former US President Donald Trump for hush-money payments during his 2016 presidential campaign.
Earlier Tuesday, New York City Mayor Eric Adams said authorities have been monitoring social media regarding the Trump case, and that the New York Police Department was on the lookout for any illegal actions. New York City has increased its police presence in all five of its boroughs.
Insider reports have speculated Trump is likely to be indicted Wednesday but that he may not appear before a US judge in Manhattan until the following week, allowing the Trump camp to make arrangements for the former president's anticipated arraignment.
Although much about how the legal process will play out remains unknown, reports have indicated the grand jury reviewing evidence presented by the Manhattan District Attorney's Office will first need to undertake a vote on charges. A majority must first be established before investigators can proceed with any officials charges.
Tensions have at an all-time high since the weekend, when Trump took to his Truth Social platform on Saturday to allege he would be arrested on Tuesday. He also called for his supporters to: "PROTEST, TAKE OUR NATION BACK!"
Officials with the NYPD have told Sputnik that police officers in Big Apple remain on standby in light of the former president's call for action posted on social media.
