Abstract

The article discusses the publication of special counsel Jack Smith's report on his investigations of Donald Trump, highlighting concerns about due process and the adversarial system of justice. It argues that the report, which did not result in indictments, should not have been made public, as it undermines fairness and transparency. The authors suggest that special-counsel reports should be kept confidential or, if published, should include input from the subject to present both sides of the case. The article emphasizes the need for balance between transparency and protecting defendants' rights in legal proceedings. [Extracted from the article]
