DOJ Says Trump Lawyer Must Testify Because He May Have Been Part of a Crime Special Counsel Jack Smith is arguing that Evan Corcoran, a lawyer involved in Trump's classified documents case, is not protected by attorney-client privilege. ERIC LUTZ FEBRUARY 15, 2023 11:18 AM In the latest sign of Donald Trump’s legal vulnerability, special counsel Jack Smith is invoking the so-called “crime-fraud exception” to compel a lawyer for the former president to testify in the Justice Department’s classified documents investigation. According to the New York Times, which first reported the escalation in the DOJ probe, prosecutors are arguing in a motion that Trump lawyer Evan Corcoran is not protected by attorney-client privilege because their discussions may have been conducted to commit or further a crime, and should have to answer grand jury questions he had previously tried to sidestep. #evancorcoran #crimefraud #crimefraudexception #trump #trump2024 #trumptrain #obstructionofjustice Full article: https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2023/02/evan-corcoran-doj-attorney-client-privilege https://www.instagram.com/p/CoukjoKrYZ9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
