A potential gag order in the case involving former President Donald Trump has been proposed by the legal team of District Attorney Bragg. The order aims to restrict Trump from criticizing potential witnesses, jurors, attorneys not affiliated with Bragg, court staff, and their family members. This move comes in response to Trump's history of attacking individuals involved in legal proceedings, including jurors in cases like that of Roger Stone.
The protective order seeks to prevent Trump from disclosing juror identities or addresses to his supporters or confidants. The filing emphasizes concerns about juror harassment and intimidation, citing Trump's past behavior. The request for the gag order is seen as a measure to ensure the integrity of the proceedings, facilitate jury selection, and safeguard juror safety.
