Trump is accused of hiding top secret documents at his Mar-a-Lago property in Florida. He is expected to plead not guilty in federal court on Tuesday.
Over the weekend,Monday, his motorcade arrived at the airport in New Jersey preparing for his arraignment in Miami federal court.
"This indictment tells me that this prosecutor has done a very thorough job of investigating the case, getting the testimony in the grand jury, looking at all the angles," said John Helms, the former Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Texas.Images from the indictment shows boxes of documents stored in bathroom and other rooms on the Mar-a-Lago property.Helms said on Tuesday Trump will be treated like any other person preparing for their arraignment.
"He will have to go and have his fingerprints taken and have pictures taken and fill out some forms. That takes a couple of hours," he said. Following the first appearance, Helms says the prosecution will turn over their evidence to the Trump team.One of the key motions could involve federal judge Aileen Cannon, who was appointed by Trump."There are lots of procedures that have to play out. I'm going to say 50-50 that she stays on," he said.
Law enforcement is already stationed outside the federal courthouse. Tape and barriers have been put up around the area.
