Speaking indictment
In the United States, a speaking indictment is an indictment that goes beyond the mere statement of charges, thus putting statements about alleged events into the public domain.[1] In 2018, it was reported that speaking indictments had been used as part of the Mueller Inquiry into Russian interference with the American political process.[2][3]
