This is not really the case. The sample size is too small to really say "according to precedent." Better to say, no sitting president has yet been indicted, and it is unclear exactly whether it could happen or what would happen at that point because it's never happenned before and been litigated. Legal Scholars definitely can and do disagree on whether a sitting president can be indicted.
