During his decades-long career, Smith has shown himself to be an extremely skilled and highly competent legal professional and public servant. He has successfully prosecuted international war criminals, corrupt politicians, and members of criminal organizations. The special counsel is methodical, focused and task-oriented. It is no surprise why Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Smith as special counsel, giving him the responsibility for bringing Trump to justice in what will truly be "the trial of the century."
