A former prosecutor says former President Trump is unlikely to be handcuffed if he is indicted, and that he's more likely to coordinate with authorities on surrendering.
Former federal prosecutor Andy McCarthy says the New York district attorney is an elected official which could politically sway his prosecutorial actions.says the idea that officers will handcuff former President Trump and arrest him after an indictment"couldn't happen," and that it will instead be up to the U.S. Secret Service and the New York Police Department to arrange a location for him to surrender.and could bring an indictment.
McCarthy, who was an assistant U.S. attorney in the Southern District of New York and is now a Fox News contributor, told Fox News Digital that the"most important people in this equation" following a Trump indictment are the Secret Service and the NYPD."Trump is a Secret Service protect and the NYPD are in charge of New York City," McCarthy said."They have good relations because a lot of Secret Service protects spend time in New York City.
"That’s where he would be fingerprinted and photographed," McCarthy said, noting that it would have to be a public proceeding."But it should be very quick because this is not a violent case," he explained.
