People can debate whether Georgia special grand jury forewoman Emily Kohrs’ media tour is wise — but it doesn’t appear to be illegal. (via Deadline: Legal Blog)
divulging quite a bit
Even Judge Robert McBurney, who oversaw the special grand jury, made clear in an interview with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution this week that grand jurors are barred from revealing,, “the discussions they had amongst themselves when it was just the grand jurors in the room … when they were discussing what do we do with what we’ve learned.” The AJC said the judge also said grand jurors are not prohibited from discussing “the fruit of their deliberations, which would be the final report.
Nonetheless, objections about Kohrs’ speaking out have been raised by people concerned with securing convictions for Donald Trump and his allies in the election interference investigation, as well as by lawyers who would be defending against any charges. Yet, it’s unclear specifically how those lawyers would successfully challenge Kohrs for speaking to the media about her experience.
Therefore, we’re talking about potential legal challenges based on a person speaking publicly about her experience, as she apparently has the right to do, and this isn’t even the person sitting on the grand jury that would actually be returning any indictments.
