CRS Reports – Week of 6-3-23 – Trump Classified Info Indictment

This week the Congressional Research Service (CRS) published a report on “The Mar-a-Lago Indictment: A Legal Introduction”. The Report provides an overview of the legal issues in the charges involved in this week’s indictment of former President Trump. The topics discussed include:

• Summary of the charges,

18 USC 793,

• Presidential Control over Access to Classified Information and Materials, and

• The Special Master, Grand Juries, and Special Counsel

The report very carefully avoids looking at the political issues associated with indicting a former President or an active political candidate for President.
