Supreme Court's Jan. 6 decision could have far-reaching implications for Trump and rioters

The Supreme Court has agreed to review a case involving a charge of obstructing an official proceeding related to the January 6 riot, which could have implications for hundreds of individuals arrested that day, including former President Donald Trump. The charge pertains to the interference with the congressional vote to verify the 2020 election results. Special Counsel Jack Smith has also brought an obstruction charge against Trump in his DC criminal trial. The Supreme Court's decision could impact the breadth of the charge and potentially affect Trump's trial, which is currently scheduled to begin on March 4, 2024. A ruling is not expected until next summer.
