Jack Smith May Release Revealing Report on Trump Cases Before Stepping Down

Legal analysts suggest Smith could issue a comprehensive report detailing evidence against Trump before his presidency begins.

Donald Trump, who recently won the 2024 presidential election, faces two pending criminal cases that are being paused due to his upcoming presidency.
Special Counsel Jack Smith is reportedly planning to conclude his investigations and resign before Trump takes office, potentially releasing a detailed report.
Legal experts believe Smith's report could document extensive evidence of alleged crimes by Trump, raising questions about future prosecution.
Barbara McQuade, a former U.S. attorney, suggests Smith could dismiss the cases without prejudice, allowing for potential revival after Trump's presidency.
Trump has vowed to dismiss Smith and has nominated Matt Gaetz as attorney general, indicating plans to leverage the DOJ against political adversaries.
