The judge overseeing the classified documents case against Donald Trump asked prosecutors to explain why they used two grand juries in Florida and Washington D.C. Prosecutors had been questioning witnesses before a grand jury in D.C. for months before charges were filed in Florida. Prosecutors said the grand juries continued investigating further obstructive activity after the initial indictment. The judge also wants prosecutors to explain a potential conflict of interest issue regarding one of the defendant’s attorneys who has represented multiple witnesses in the case. This raises the possibility the attorney may need to cross-examine his own clients during the trial.
What’s with that last bit? It’s completely the opposite.
Prosecutors are the ones petitioning the judge to review the attorney’s conflict of interest.
