Trump May Be Facing 34 Counts, McCarthy Says House Will Hold DA Accountable for 'Abuse of Power'
00:37 GMT 31.03.2023 (Updated: 16:55 GMT 03.04.2023) WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - Former US President Donald Trump may be facing up to 34 counts in connection to allegedly falsifying business records, CNN reported citing sources familiar with the matter.
A Manhattan Grand Jury on Thursday voted to indict Trump in the coming days in a case involving an alleged hush-payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels in 2016 amid his run for US president. Prosecutors asked him to surrender and to face arraignment on charges that remain under seal.
Meanwhile House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said in a statement that the US House of Representatives will hold Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg to account for his alleged abuse of power over the indictment of former President Donald Trump.
"The American people will not tolerate this injustice, and the House of Representatives will hold Alvin Bragg and his unprecedented abuse of power to account," McCarthy said on Thursday.
Trump said the jury's decision to indict him was tantamount to election interference, but believes the so-called witch hunt will backfire on President Joe Biden.
The Manhattan District Attorney’s office said it contacted Trump's legal team to coordinate his surrender for arraignment, but the specific date is not set yet.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, Trump's possible Republican rival in the 2024 election, said in a statement that the state will not assist in an extradition request for Trump due to questionable circumstances surrounding the Manhattan District Attorney.
CNN reported that Trump's arrest is likely to come early next week. Trump has denied any wrongdoing called the indictment election interference and political persecution.
