WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - The Manhattan Grand Jury probing US President Donald Trump’s alleged involvement in a hush payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels is not expected to hear evidence for the next month due to a scheduled hiatus, a US media outlet reported on Wednesday.
Citing sources familiar with the proceedings, the report says that any potential indictment of Trump over the alleged payment to Daniels, would effectively be delayed until late April, at the earliest, nonetheless noting the jury’s schedule may be subject to changes.
Although the grand jury would typically convene on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, the report said there will be no meetings in the coming weeks due to different hearings and Passover. That will be followed by two weeks planned hiatus which was reportedly decided as the jury met in January.
Although there is no fixed deadline for the hearings, the report says the jury’s activities led to believe they were close to a vote, notably since the prosecutor allowed Trump to testify, a step usually associated with an ending investigation.
