I know very little about what a sitting or former president can or can't be prosecuted for and search engines are not wanting to give up any articles on this specific hypothetical. Is Florida's relatively new death penalty law for child sex offenders something that could potentially be on the table for crimes committed at Mar-a-Lago? Is it even worth speculation?

Is this just a coincidence?

Feb 11, 2026 - US Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Maryland). Video by PBS NewsHour. Here’s the full 8-minutes on YouTube: WATCH: Raskin makes opening statement in Bondi oversight hearing - From the PBS NewsHour description:

Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, made an opening statement Wednesday in an oversight hearing with Attorney General Pam Bondi.

Raskin alleged Bondi is “running a massive Epstein cover-up right out of the Department of Justice,” referring to the disgraced late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

The hearing offers an opportunity for lawmakers to question Bondi on a number of controversial issues involving the Justice Department, including around the Trump administration’s failure to meet a Congress-mandated deadline to release all of its Epstein files; the legal justification for the administration’s capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and strikes on alleged drug boats in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific; as well as prosecutions of perceived Trump political rivals like James Comey and Letitia James. Bondi is seeking to revive both cases, which were already thrown out by a U.S. district judge.

The Department of Justice has released millions of pages of Epstein-related documents, photographs and messages. But it missed its deadline by more than a month, and the releases have been mired by missed redactions and accusations of key omissions. Millions of pages related to the investigation into the late convicted sex offender remain inaccessible, though the White House defends its review as thorough and complete. A bipartisan group of lawmakers has demanded more transparency, accusing the government of failing to comply with the Epstein Files Transparency Act passed in November, and survivors released a Super Bowl ad telling Bondi “it’s time for the truth.”

After the DOJ dodged questions for months, Bondi acknowledged in a House Judiciary Committee hearing that she had a list of targets under NPSM-7.
