are going to dive deeper into this story, frank bowman is a professor emeritus at the university of missouri schoollaw and a former federal and state prosecutor, joining us from colorado. we've got a date now, march 24th. i thought we were looking for a swift trial here. at least that's what we were told. now we here in march of 2024. what happened to the swift trial? >> march of 2024, which is an extremely likely time, would be a remarkably early childhood for -- early trial date for a case of this complexity. everybody will need his or her own lawyer, there will be a plenitude of pretrial motions, discovery issues, motions to sever, motions to dismiss, motion to transfer venue, so forth and so on. a case of this complexity if it were to go to trial in march of 2024 would be something of a legal miracle. i think it is extraordinarily unlikely that it will go forward then or anything like it. largely because it is competing of course for mr. trump's time with three other cases and three other jurisdictions. >> if i can jump in for a second, that really brings me to my next question, you are really

m morales, meredith rather at the university of missouri school of law and a former federal and state prosecutor. he's joining us from colorado. all right. we've got a date now. march 2024. i thought we were looking for a swift trial here at least that's what we were told. now we're hearing his date of march of 2024. what happened to the swift trial? well, march of 24, which, which by the way, i think is extremely unlikely time for the georgia case to go forward with the remarkably early trial date for cash. at this complexity, remember that mr. trump discharged along with 18 co defendants, and each of them is gonna have to get his or her own lawyer. now, there are going to be a plentitude of pre trial motions, discovery issues, motions to sever motions to dismiss motion to transfer venue, and so forth. and so on a case of this complexity, if it were to go to trial, in march of 2024 would be something of a legal miracles. indeed, i think it's extraordinarily unlikely that it will go forward in march of 2024 or anything like it. largely because not in addition to the complexity of the

well, frank bowman is a professor emeritus at the university of missouri school of law and a full of federal and state prosecutor. he doesn't expect the trial in georgia to get underway any time soon. i in march of 24, which, which, by the way, i think is extremely unlikely time for the georgia case to go forward, would be remarkably early trial date for cash. at this complexity, remember that mr. trump discharged along with 18 co defendants. um, each of them is gonna have to get his or her um lawyer. now there are gonna be a plentitude of pre trial motions, discovery issues, motions to sever motions to dismiss motion to transfer venue and so forth. and so on. the case of this complexity, if it were to go to trial in march of 2024 would be something of a legal miracle. indeed, i think it's extraordinarily unlikely that it will go forward in march of 2024 or anything like it. and largely because not in addition to the complexity of the georgia case, you do is competing, of course, from mr. trump's time with 3 other cases and 3 other jurisdictions and all the judges and all your sectio

frank bowman is professor emeritus at the university of missouri school of law and the fullest federal and state prosecutor. he says the indictment lays out a compelling case against trump. it is terribly sad and deeply tragic for the united states to have a former president indicted for in athens, trying to overthrow democracy. but when the facts are there, when the laws there, i think that the agents of law have really no no, no choice but to proceed as they have. and if one reason don't, and i urge those watching today to do so, it lays out a very compelling case that trump is exactly what he was charged with doing. which is to say that he engaged in a series of conspiracies with a number of different people to overturn the election that he finally lost. i think the indictment as well conceived, factually. i think it's, it sounds we based legally and i think he faces a very significant legal challenge here. this is a very large case. it will involve a lot of witnesses that will involve a lot of free trial discovery. i think is a serious question as to whether or not you can reasonab

he's a former federal and state prosecutor is currently a professor emeritus at the university of missouri school of law. and he's joining us live from durango colorado, colorado. very good to have you with the so thank you very much indeed for the benefit of those of us. we're maybe coming to this for the 1st time. can you explain to us briefly? fi, many of these charges are coming under the the re co law. the racketeering law. well, rico is an acronym stands for racketeering, and it's almost done corrupt organizations. it's a statute that was 1st passed by the federal government in the 1970s. but a fair number of states have passed their own versions of it. essentially what it does is to allow a prosecutor to bring in the same case someone wider or array of charges and events that will be true for an ordinary conspiracy. that's its primary advantage is disadvantage in the united states on prosecutors is that it can make your case unnecessarily complicated by on. uh, for sure. our correspondent was telling us that one of the changes that donald trump has just made to his legal team is bringing i

he is professor emeritus of the university of missouri school of law and a former former federal and state prosecutor available and welcome to you. so it looks like trump will be the impasse in the quotes he could have chosen not to have been there and done this, all of them. how might this appearance be used to his own advantage? well, his approach to all of these criminal cases and particularly this latest one of which is by far the most consequential is not so much to defend them on factual or legal grounds, but to defend them on political grounds to claim. but everything that has been alleged against them is part of the deep laid deep state plot. so i suppose from his narrow perspective, he can try to turn to his advantage. i took a survey arraignment process itself, was trumps. and they'd be presented with the chargers. be done for trinity to have the entire indictment read to him. i'm sure that the end is usually a way that opportunity because the environment is 45 pages long. it will be a be asked if he's aware of the charges will be asked if he wants to plead guilty or guilty

so we have frank bowman, a professor of meredith at the university of missouri law school, and a former federal state prosecutor to help us understand all of this. we spoke to him earlier and he does expect the trial in georgia to get underway anytime soon. i the march of 20 before which, which, by the way, i think is extremely unlikely time for the georgia case to go forward with the remarkably early trial date. for a case of this complexity. remember that mr. trump discharged along with 18 co defendants. each of them is going to have to get his or her own lawyer. now there are gonna be a plentitude, a pre trial motions, discovery issues, motions to sever motions to dismiss motion to transfer venue, and so forth. and so on. a case of this complexity, if it were to go to trial. in march of 2024 would be something of a legal miracle. indeed, i think it's extraordinarily unlikely that it will go forward in march of 2024 or anything like it. largely because not in addition to the complexity of the georgia case, you do is competing of course, from mr. trump's time with 3 other cases and 3 o

university, historically black school and state. a security officer there confronted him and followed him off campus. potentially saving dozens of lives. here to discuss what we are learning tonight these new details as retired missourion johnson and thank you so much for being here. the sheriff says they have this manifesto on their hands. they will eventually be releasing at least parts of. it's what would you be looking for in something like that? >> the actual -- that was in there so we start talking about racially motivated. we want to see what the verbiage is and where he's getting it from internet sources and books he might have read. it does a lot about his mindset. >> essentially, the shooting is being investigated as a hate crime we know that. what evidence beyond just the verbiage would be the meeting to look for to make sure it could be categorized as a hate crime? >> we made look at other people that he may be in contact with other groups that he may follow. i think we'll look at all those things and it'll tell law enforcement a lot about the mindset that he had on that day and it's taking overall. >> the sheriff said that when the shooter was 15 he was held under the states baker act and for those who d
