Trump’s Criminal Profit Motive

Did President Trump take classified documents to Mar-a-Lago in part to benefit his business interests? According to recent reports, Special Counsel prosecutors explored possible business-interest motives, a theory that was not part of Jack Smith’s eventual indictment. In an excerpt from this week’s Insider episode, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance break down the news and the significance of motive in criminal prosecutions. In the full episode, Preet and Joyce discuss: – The $1.2 million settlement in Michael Flynn’s malicious prosecution lawsuit against the Department of Justice; and – Attorney General Pam Bondi’s proposed rule deferring state bar ethics investigations into federal prosecutors to the Department’s own ethics committee.
