Tuesday's grand jury indictment for former U.S. President Donald Trump is his third indictment since March but the first to focus on efforts to overturn 2020 election.
United States special counsel Jack Smith said the attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, was "fueled by" the former president's lies. VOA’s Carol Van Dam spoke to criminal defense lawyer and former CIA officer Jack Rice on the recent indictment’s implications for U.S. democracy.
