Can an indictment be issued late at night?

1. It could be unsealed, but not likely acted upon if late at night. Nt

2. Police operate around the clock, it is not unusual to arrest someone after dark...

Usually if they are expecting trouble they will come at three AM and knock with a flash-bang grenade through the window, followed by a fusillade of gunfire. And that, just for shoplifting... Who knows maybe the nuke someone for trying to overthrow the government.

Trump will be indicted when he is indicted. It would make sense to do it in the early hours so that he could be back in Mar-a-loco before the knuckle dragging gun toters wake up and sober up. However, not a heck of a lot of things make sense any more. At this time I am more anxious about what he will be charged with rather than when he will be booked.

3. I think the Grand Jury still has some work they gotta get done. See this DU post:

If someone made me predict I’d say Friday or Monday.

Very good post here by a DU’ER who has been on multiple Grand Juries. Basically an insider look at how things work.

6. Stone was arrested around 6 am on January 25, 2019. It was morning, but still dark.

The indictment was filed the day before.
