Five things to remember about a 'zombie' Trump indictment
3) The "zombie" timing.
Bragg's indictment, if it comes, is often referred to as a "zombie" case
because federal officials earlier declined to prosecute Trump on these
grounds, and then Bragg himself considered and rejected a prosecution on
the same grounds. Now, with time running out on the statute of
limitations and to charge Trump before the 2024 presidential campaign is
fully underway, Bragg has flip-flopped. The "zombie" case has been
revived and is apparently going full speed ahead.
