Special Counsel Jack Smith, who revealed an unprecedented federal indictment against ex-President Donald Trump, is an experienced war crimes prosecutor. Previously, he oversaw anti-corruption cases against US politicians and was a "specialist prosecutor" in The Hague, investigating war crimes in Kosovo. Smith charged former President Donald Trump with 37 federal charges, including unlawful retention of national defense information and obstruction of justice, becoming the first ex-president in US history to face criminal charges. There are indications that a third indictment against Trump is possible, including charges related to obstructing congressional proceedings, fundraising fraud, and attempting to recruit fake electors. Throughout the process, Smith has maintained his commitment to the rule of law and unwaveringly pursued the case against Trump.
