Would a Trump Prison Sentence Create a Security Nightmare?
August 15, 2023
A prison sentence for former President Donald Trump may present the Secret Service with a security nightmare. All former presidents are entitled by law to round-the-clock secret service protection for the rest of their lives. In a statement, the Secret Service says "No policy or procedure currently exists” to cover a former president going to prison. According to the Washington Post, the Secret Service may insist on home confinement if Trump were to be convicted.
