Trump grand jury expected to report back on Thursday, according to court source

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg speaks at a press conference after Steve Bannon, former advisor to former President Donald Trump surrendered at the NY District Attorney's office to face charges on September 08, 2022, in New York City. Bannon faces a new criminal indictment that will mirror the federal case in which he was pardoned by former President Donald Trump. He and others have been alleged to have defrauded contributors to a private $25 million fundraising effort to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border according. 

A Manhattan grand jury expected to meet on Wednesday as part of the investigation into former President Donald Trump and a possible indictment, is now scheduled to return at noon on Thursday, a source with the court told Fox News.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office canceled the grand jury meeting on Wednesday, where they were expected to hear from at least one additional witness.

But on Wednesday morning, the grand jury was placed “on standby” for Thursday, a source told Fox News.

TRUMP HUSH-MONEY GRAND JURY PROCEEDINGS ‘CANCELED’ FOR WEDNESDAY, SOURCES SAY

Two sources relayed to Fox News Digital on Wednesday that the grand jury was canceled because of “major dissension” in Bragg’s office, with one source claiming he is having a tough time convincing members on potential charges because of the “weakness” of the case.

Still, rumors about a possible indictment are rumors and Fox News Digital learned from sources that Trump has not been formally notified if Bragg plans to bring charges against him.

When asked for comment about what was happening behind the scenes in terms of the grand jury and a possible indictment against Trump, the DA’s office said, “We can’t confirm or comment on grand jury matters.”

Grand juries that report at noon typically get sat at 2 p.m., and even though court staff typically leaves for the day at 5 p.m., the grand jury could stay beyond that because the DA controls it.

Sources have told Fox News that there is a real chance Bragg may not indict the former president.
