CATHERINE HERRIDGE: Well, of the more than half dozen investigations, the former attorney general told CBS News, in his view, there is one that stands out. And he said the former president’s comments at that recent CNN town hall may have created more legal exposure.
BILL BARR: I’ve said all along that of the cases out there right now, the one I’d be most concerned about if I were the president, former president, is the Mar-a-Lago document case.
CATHERINE HERRIDGE: And why so?
BILL BARR: Because it doesn’t go a lot on intent or anything like that. It’s very it’s very clear that he had no business having those documents. He was given a long time to send them back. And he was, they were subpoenaed. And if there’s any games being played there, he’s, he’s going to be very exposed.
CATHERINE HERRIDGE: Given the developments in the grand jury. Do you believe that special counsel Jack Smith is close to a charging decision?
BILL BARR: I would think they’d want to do it before the end of the year. And, you know, it could be, you know, later in the summer or in the fall, you know, would be the earliest I would expect that.
Trump-era AG Bill Barr tells @CBS_Herridge he believes former Pres. Trump will be “very exposed” legally if he was playing “any games” with the documents marked as classified that were kept at Mar-a-Lago.
