Special Counsel Jack Smith to End Two Federal Cases Against President-elect Trump by January 20, 2025
Nov 6, 2024, 07:07 PM
Special Counsel Jack Smith is reportedly in discussions with senior leadership at the Department of Justice (DOJ) to end his prosecutions of President-elect Donald Trump. This decision is based on the DOJ's longstanding policy that a sitting president cannot face criminal prosecution while in office. Smith is evaluating ways to wind down two federal cases against Trump, which involve charges related to the January 6 Capitol riot and the mishandling of classified documents. The decision to drop the cases will take effect at noon on January 20, 2025, coinciding with Trump's inauguration as President. NBC, AP sources, and ABC have all reported on these developments.
