Trump could face crippling court-ordered 'restrictions' after indictment: Former prosecutor
Raw StoryDuring an appearance on MSNBC on Friday morning, a former federal prosecutor claimed Donald Trump's ability to flit around the country and engage in campaign-related activities could be hampered if he is hit with one or more criminal indictments prior to the 2024 Republican primaries and general election. Reacting to news that the former president has been invited to testify before a Manhattan grand jury next week – a move that could lead to a possible indictment over hush money paid to adult film star Stormy Daniels in 2016 – Glenn Kirschner said a judge could make the former president life's more difficult before going to trial. Kirschner claimed an indictment looks likely, and Trump's ability to run for president could face court-ordered hurdles. "I don't think anybody believes Donald Trump will be detained pending trial the way, you know, so many other folks charged with crimes are in this country, but the judge could restrict his travel," he explained.
