Insider Finance - Business - What’s next for Trump

June 9, 2023

Hello! This is Kieran Corcoran, an executive editor in Insider’s News division, chewing over a second presidential indictment. The next thing we’re desperate to see is the document itself and precisely what former President Donald Trump was charged with — last night even his lawyer couldn’t say. The MAGA faithful rallied around him, but Trump’s former VP was suddenly nowhere to be seen. While we wait for more, today’s Big Story looks at what comes next.

In today’s edition:

Tesla drivers escaped wildfire smoke by enabling “bioweapon-defense mode.”
Sam Altman says he worries making ChatGPT was “something really bad.”
Saudi Arabia's crown prince is making his financial presence felt across the sports world.

THE BIG STORY

Trump indicted

Former President Donald Trump appears in court for his arraignment on charges related to falsifying business records in a hush money investigation in Manhattan.

Andrew Kelly/AP

No former president has ever been charged with a crime before, much less twice. Donald Trump has been indicted again. But this time, it’s much more serious.

Less than three months ago, Trump was accused of falsifying business records relating to a “hush money” payment. Now, Trump has been indicted on charges of mishandling documents at his Mar-a-Lago home — and his enemies were nothing short of gleeful and vindicated upon hearing the news.

We’re once again in unchartered territory, so we sought to answer some questions you may have:

Will Trump be arrested again? Yes, if you’re criminally charged, you get taken into custody — but don’t expect him to be held in jail before trial.
Will we get any pictures? Probably not. But, hey, we’ll likely get some cool court illustrations.
Will the Secret Service stay with him if he goes to prison? Probably yes. The agents likely wouldn't share a cell with Trump, but they would be nearby.

We’ve also answered whether Trump will get a mugshot, whether he will be handcuffed, and how this is all going to play out.
