Трамп о Саудовской Аравии

И комментарий к этой информации хороший.
Lots of people said that Trump’s anti-media rhetoric would cause some idiot to murder a journalist, but I don’t think anyone predicted that the idiot would be the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia.

прокуратура выдвинула обвинения в надежде на "plead guilty"

У вас дремучие представление об американской системе правосудия.

Обвинения выдвигает большое жюри.

A federal grand jury sitting in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Virginia in Charlottesville today charged an Ohio man with federal hate crimes, including a hate crime act that resulted in the death of Heather Heyer, for his actions during the Aug. 12, 2017 “Unite the Right Rally” in Charlottesville.

grand jury - это процедурная бюрократия.

The federal prosecutor leads all grand jury sessions, although he cannot testify or be present during grand jury deliberations. As a practical matter, a federal grand jury will almost always return an indictment presented to it by a prosecutor. This is the basis for Judge Sol Wachtler's famous saying that a prosecutor can get a grand jury to “indict a ham sandwich.”

Бюрократией вы называете Пятую поправку к Конституции: “No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury”.

Ага. И Judge Wachtler (если бы вы прочли цитату).
