Former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani suggested the former president’s alleged co-conspirators are « white-collar type who would roll very easily. »
Members of Donald Trump’s inner circle will be quick to « flip » on the former president to ensure they will not be prosecuted in the classified documents investigation, according to a legal expert.
Neama Rahmani, a former federal prosecutor and president of West Coast Trial Lawyers, was reacting to reports that Trump has been indicted on at least seven criminal charges over allegations the former president retained classified materials after leaving the White House and obstructed federal attempts to retrieve them.
The details of the indictment have not been revealed as it is currently sealed, but Trump announced on Truth Social that he has been informed about the upcoming charges in the « boxes hoax » and will appear at a courthouse in Miami, Florida, on Tuesday, June 13, as part of Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation.
Trump’s lawyer, James Trusty, told CNN on Thursday that one of the charges the former president faces falls under the Espionage Act; other charges related to obstruction of justice and the destruction or falsification of records, Trusty said.
