Question for you: How can the "sum and substance" of Trump's statements to *his attorneys* be included in the indictment? That's covered by attorney-client privilege...

Though the attorney isn't identified in the indictment, it's almost certainly Evan Corcoran. He had originally refused to testify to the grand jury, citing privilege. But the Court rejected that broad claim of privilege, and ruled that for certain questions, that privilege didn't apply. The order wasn't released publicly, but it almost certainly was based on the "crime-fraud" exception to the privilege. Where the services of the lawyer are being sought for the purpose of committing a crime, or to enable the client to commit a crime, the communications aren't privileged. Thus:

"Smith's team asked Chief Judge Beryl Howell to reject Corcoran's claims of privilege and force him to testify against his client, Trump, on the basis that the attorney-client communications in question could have furthered criminal activity. Howell's secret order only partially granted that request and ruled that the so-called "crime-fraud exception" be applied to Corcoran's testimony on a specific set of questions, the sources said."

The statements in the indictment are probably Corcoran's testimony and written notes.
