Former President Trump faces serious criminal, civil investigations after White House
#1
  • Former President Donald Trump might have easily avoided conviction at his second impeachment trial — but he could find it a lot tougher to beat several serious criminal and civil probes that he’s now facing.
  • A conviction would be an unprecedented event in American history, as no ex-president has ever been charged with a crime, much less locked up for one.
  • Trump faces pending criminal probes in New York City and Georgia, and also could have criminal exposure to allegations that he incited the Jan. 6 Capitol riot in Washington, D.C.

Former President Donald Trump might have easily avoided conviction at his second impeachment trial — but he could find it a lot tougher to beat the several serious criminal and civil probes that he now faces.


And at least one of those investigations carries the potential for Trump to be sent to jail if convicted.

That would be an unprecedented event in American history, as no ex-president has ever been charged with a crime, much less locked up for one.

Trump, a Republican, whose spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment, has claimed that the probes are politically motivated witch hunts by Democratic prosecutors.

But judges in two of those investigations have repeatedly ruled against Trump’s lawyers in disputes related to evidence.
