Latest Trump indictment levels 37 counts against former president

Jun 9, 2023 | 11:51 AM

WASHINGTON — A newly unsealed indictment says former U.S. president Donald Trump is facing 37 charges of mishandling national secrets and conspiring to obstruct justice. 

It’s the second time Trump, already the only U.S. president to be impeached twice, has been indicted by a grand jury in less than three months. 

The document alleges he stored “scores of boxes” of classified documents in various rooms throughout his Mar-a-Lago sanctuary in Florida, including a ballroom, a bathroom and a shower. 

He’s accused of showing classified documents to various people at his golf club in New Jersey in 2021, after he left office, and admitting they were secret.
