Dershowitz Tells Newsmax: Trump’s Legal Claims Unlikely to be Resolved by Early 2024
Former President Donald Trump is facing four criminal cases, including charges of racketeering and inciting the January 6th Capitol attack. Former Harvard Law School professor Alan Dershowitz believes that the trials are unlikely to begin in early 2024, as prosecutors want, due to the complexity of the cases. The Fulton County District Attorney in Georgia has given Trump and other defendants until Friday to surrender, with the trial potentially starting in March. Another federal case in Washington, D.C., is seeking a trial start date of January 2nd. Trump has pleaded not guilty in all cases. Dershowitz also mentioned that negotiations are ongoing regarding Trump’s surrender terms, such as mug shots and bail conditions, which are typical in such situations. He believes that the trials should be televised for the American public to see and judge for themselves, rather than relying on media reports.
