WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Chris Coons (D-Del.) released the following statement after the indictment of former President Donald Trump by a Manhattan grand jury: 

“Today’s developments are a reminder that no one—even a former president—is above the law. Before commenting further, I will read District Attorney Bragg’s indictment upon its release and review the case, and I encourage everyone to do the same.

“I hope that my friends and colleagues across the political spectrum remember that every American is entitled to the presumption of innocence, and that they also respect whatever result our justice system ultimately produces.”

Senator Coons is a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
