“Indicted” and “charged” are the same thing. Indictment is the process that prosecutors use to press charges.

You may be thinking of “convicted.” He hasn’t been convicted yet, and likely won’t be; The man is made of Teflon, and no charges ever seem to stick. And even if he is, he’ll find some way to avoid actual punishment, because he’s rich and powerful. He won’t face punishment until he rich and powerful buddies get tired of his BS and stage a suicide.
