Other nations prosecute their criminal leaders – Presidents, Prime Ministers, and so on. France, South Korea, South Africa and Italy have actually all prosecuted previous leaders for criminal activities they devoted while in workplace. In the United States there is no precedent for prosecuting a criminal previous president.
District attorneys normally do not like to take first legal trips, that is, bring a case that is unmatched. District attorneys like to have legal precedent as a plan. They like to have the convenience and cover of having the ability to indicate an appellate court viewpoint – legal precedent – and state, “this has actually been done in the past, so I am not breaking brand-new legal ground.”
Reasoning and typical sense determine that, if you need precedent to arraign a criminal previous president then we might NEVER EVER charge a criminal previous president. The method district attorneys develop precedent is by doing something for the very first time.
The genuine concern is – exists anything restricting the prosecution of a previous president for criminal offenses he devoted while in workplace. The response is a conclusive NO – there is no law, no statute, no appellate court viewpoint and no Supreme Court precedent forbiding the prosecution of a previous president.
This video talks about prosecutorial factors to consider in taking a first legal trip – brining an unique case for which there is no legal precedent and relates example of when such unique legal cases have actually been generated the courts of Washington, DC.
