Judge releases prosecutors’ evidence against Donald Trump in Jan. 6 case

The federal judge overseeing the election interference case against Donald Trump has released prosecutors’ 165-page motion detailing a trove of new evidence against the former president.

United States District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan released the motion by special counsel Jack Smith after Smith and his team hit Trump with a revised indictment that keeps the same four counts against him.

Trump is charged with four counts of interfering with the 2020 election. Those counts allege that he conspired to defraud the United States, that he conspired to obstruct the certification of the electoral vote count, that he did obstruct that certification, and that he conspired to deprive voters of the right to have their votes counted.
