WASHINGTON (Reuters) – An Arizona grand jury that charged 18 people this spring in a scheme that sought to overturn former President Donald Trump’s 2020 election loss also wanted to indict him, the New York Times reported on Tuesday, citing court papers.

Prosecutors have recommended that Trump not be charged, the court papers said, citing a Justice Department policy that discourages state and federal cases against the same defendant primarily on similar facts, according to the New York Times.
