Merrick Garland's law professor, Laurence Tribe, predicts Garland will bring charges against trump.
Merrick Garland's law professor, Laurence Tribe, predicts Garland will bring charges against trump.
On Thursday, CNN's Erin Burnett interviewed Laurence Tribe, professor emeritus at Harvard Law School where he taught for 52 years, teaching the Constitution to some of the most powerful people in America.
Tribe taught Jan. 6 select committee members Jaime Raskin (D-MD) and Adam Schiff (D-CA) and Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts.
"With the hearing today that focused so much on Trump causing violence against Pence, do you believe the committee has proven that Trump himself knowingly committed crimes?" Burnett asked.
"Without any doubt," Tribe said.
"Beyond a reasonable doubt, beyond any doubt, and the crimes are obvious. The most obvious was that he was ordering his vice-president to do what everyone in the room knew would be illegal, namely, exercise power to pick the next president. ... "But I do believe, though he's doing it meticulously and not as quickly as some would like, that Merrick Garland will approve criminal charges against this [Trump]," Tribe predicted.
