Georgia prosecutor edges closer to indicting Trump for 2020 election interference -
Grand jury selection started Tuesday in Fulton County to determine whether District Attorney Fani Willis has sufficient evidence to bring election interference charges against Mr. Trump and his associates who tried to get Georgia officials to overturn the state’s presidential election results.
Mr. Trump has defended the call as “perfect” and said it concerned “widespread election fraud in Georgia.” “I would expect that Fani Willis will seek an indictment,” Mr. Rhamani said. “She has a reputation as an aggressive prosecutor and any kind of hesitation by her to be the first person to charge a former president and opening up a political Pandora’s box, that’s all gone.”
The special grand jury recommended undisclosed charges for multiple people and reported possible perjury by some of the witnesses.
