What happens if Donald Trump is arrested? The accusations against the former American President and how many years in prison he risks, what are the possibilities of being placed behind bars

What happens if Donald Trump is arrested? The accusations against the former

Former US President Donald Trump says he will be arrested on Tuesday on charges related to an investigation into a $130,000 payment to porn star Stormy Daniels in 2016.

If arrested, he would become the first former president in United States history to face criminal charges.

What can Trump be accused of?

In 2016, porn star Stormy Daniel contacted several media outlets, offering to sell them materials of an affair she alleged she had with Trump in 2006.

Trump's team has been involved in the case, and his lawyer, Michael Cohen, has paid Daniels $130,000 to keep quiet.

Such a thing is illegal.

However, when Trump reimbursed Cohen, official records say the payment was made under the pretext of legal commitments.

Prosecutors have said this proves Trump falsified business documents, and that constitutes a misdemeanor — a felony — in New York.

Prosecutors are likely to assume that something like this also violates election law, because his attempts to hide the payment made to Daniels were motivated by the desire to keep voters from finding out about the affair.

Concealing a crime by falsifying documents is treated as a higher level of crime in the United States than other offenses.

Even the prosecution lawyers admit that this case is far from clear cut.

There are few precedents for such a trial, and past attempts to charge politicians who crossed the line between campaign finance and personal spending have ended in failure.

"It's going to be difficult," said Catherine Christian, a former finance attorney in New York City.

Will Trump be impeached?

The decision on whether to file a lawsuit is up to New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg.

He has empaneled a grand jury to investigate whether there is enough evidence to prosecute, and he is the only one who knows if – or when – there will be an indictment.

Javën e kaluar, avokatët e Trumpit kanë thënë se ish-presidentit i është ofruar mundësia e paraqitjes para një jurie të madhe, çka është shenjë se hetimet janë afër fundit.

Avokatët e ish-presidentit kanë hedhur poshtë sugjerimet se ata, apo vetë Trump, kanë njohuri për një padi në ardhje, duke thënë se komentet e Trumpit për arrestimin e mundshëm të së martës bazohen vetëm në raportimet e mediave.

Megjithatë, ekzistojnë edhe shenja tjera se juria e madhe është afër përfundimit të punimeve.

Të dy, Michael Cohen dhe ish-këshilltari i tij ligjor, Robert Costello – tani kritik i ashpër i tij – pritet të dëshmojnë për këtë rast.

Costello do të mund të prezantohet nga ekipi mbrojtës i Trumpit, në tentim e sipër për të diskredituar dëshminë e Cohenit.

Çfarë ndodh nëse Trump arrestohet?

Nëse ai akuzohet, avokatët e Trumpit kanë thënë se arrestimi i ish-presidentit do të realizohet sipas procedurave standarde.

Kjo nënkupton se ai do të udhëtojë nga shtëpia e tij në Mar-a-Lago në Florida për t’u paraqitur para gjykatës në qytetin e Nju Jorkut, dhe t’iu nënshtrohet procedurave, siç është dhënia e shenjave të gishtave dhe shkrepja e fotografive të të akuzuarve.

Duke marrë parasysh natyrën historike të një veprimi të tillë, dhe shqetësimet për sigurinë, mënyra si mund të ndodhin këto zhvillime është e paqartë – dhe mund të jetë subjekt i negociatave në mes të Zyrës së Prokurorit dhe ekipit të Trumpit.

Kur të vendoset për rastin dhe të caktohet gjyqtari, detajet tjera janë më lehtë të menaxhueshme, sikurse koha e gjykimit dhe kufizimet e mundshme në udhëtim, apo kërkesat për lirim me kusht të të pandehurit.

Dënimi eventual për kundërvajtje mund të rezultojë me gjobë.

Nëse Trump dënohet për shkelje të rëndë, ai mund të dënohet me katër vjet burgim, ndonëse disa ekspertë ligjorë parashikojnë se gjoba është më e mundshme, dhe se vënia e ish-presidentit mbrapa grilave është opsion me pak gjasa.

Pas deklaratës së tij në rrjetet sociale se do të paditet të martën, Trump ka bërë thirrje të vazhdueshme ndaj mbështetësve të tij për protesta masive.

“Ne nuk mund të lejojmë më diçka kësisoj. Ata po vrasin shtetin tonë teksa ne ulemi dhe vështrojmë”.

Gjuha e përdorur vë në pah retorikën e ashpër të tij para sulmeve ndaj Kongresit amerikan më 2021.

Në fakt, në ligjet amerikane nuk ekziston asnjë nen që ia parandalon një kandidati – që dënohet për një krim – garën apo edhe mandatin e presidentit – qoftë edhe nëse ai është në burg.

However, Trump's eventual arrest would complicate his presidential campaign.

While the situation may prompt some of his Republican supporters to march, the arrest could significantly distract his campaign.

Such a development could also deepen the divisions in the American political system.

Conservatives believe that the former president is being treated at a different level of justice, while liberals see this as a matter of holding accountable those who hold, or have held, the highest positions in power. /REL/
