The indictment of former President Donald Trump and his 18 co-defendants on multiple charges in Fulton County has started a conversation at the Emory University Center for Ethics. Professor Edward Queen and his students are discussing the ethical issues at stake regarding the 2020 election interference case.

“It’s exceedingly disturbing,” Queen said following the release of Trump’s mugshot. “To see the political process have become engulfed in bad behavior. Everything from attempts to pretend that the system didn’t work to seemingly a president who encouraged an insurrection.”

Queen said the positive is that the legal system seems to be willing and able to bring everyone, no matter who they are, to accountability.
