  • Introduction to Video Content
  • Former President Donald Trump is currently involved in a number of investigations, some of which are being conducted in New York, while others are taking place in Georgia and Washington D.C. In New York, Trump is facing 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to a hush money payment made to adult star Stormy Daniels. The next court date for this case is scheduled for December, with the trial potentially beginning in January 2024.In Georgia, the Fulton County District Attorney has impaneled a grand jury to investigate whether Trump and his allies criminally interfered with the state's handling of the 2020 election. The grand jury spent six months examining the evidence and has made charge recommendations, although much of the information is still sealed.In Washington D.C., there are two cases related to Trump. The first is the Mar-a-Lago documents probe, where special counsel Jack Smith has been appointed to determine if Trump mishandled classified documents after leaving office. Around 300 items with classification markings have been recovered from Mar-a-Lago, and a judge has ordered Trump's lawyer, Evan Cochran, to provide certain files to the grand jury.The second case in D.C. is the federal election interference examination, also led by special counsel Jack Smith. Investigators have been conducting interviews and gathering documents for months. These investigations are ongoing, and their outcomes remain to be seen.
  • Subtitles section
  • Today, former President Donald Trump was back here in New York City to answer questions as part of Attorney General Letitia James' lawsuit against him for fraud.
  • But as you all know, that's not the only case related to the former president making its way through the legal system.
  • We're going to break down several of them now.
  • We'll begin with the other New York probe.
  • Trump was indicted by the Manhattan D.A. on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records.
  • You'll remember that's related to a hush money payment made to adult star Stormy Daniels.
  • The next court date for this case will be in December.
  • The trial may begin in January of 2024.
  • Another closely watched inquiry is this one.
  • Down in Georgia, the Fulton County D.A. impaneled a grand jury to determine if Trump and his allies criminally interfered with the state's handling of the 2020 election.
  • The grand jury spent six months examining the evidence and compiled a final report.
  • Much of that is still sealed, but released portions reveal the grand jury did make charge recommendations.
  • And that brings us to the two D.C. cases.
  • First, the Mar-a-Lago documents probe.
  • The Justice Department appointed special counsel Jack Smith to determine if Trump mishandled classified docs after he left office.
  • About 300 items with classification markings have been recovered from Mar-a-Lago.
  • And most recently, a judge ordered Trump lawyer Evan Cochran to provide the grand jury with certain files.
  • Finally, there is the federal election interference examination, which is also being led by special counsel Jack Smith.
  • Investigators have been interviewing witnesses and gathering documents on this for months.
  • They're looking into any attempts by the former president and his team to prevent the transfer of power following the 2020 presidential election and all those wild circumstances surrounding the January 6th Capitol riot.
  • Former Vice President Mike Pence was recently ordered to testify in this case.
  • Trump's legal team has appealed that decision.
  • There are also multiple civil cases involving the former president, including columnist E. Jean Carroll's lawsuit against him for defamation and battery.
  • That trial is expected to begin April 25th.
