Trump Allies Face Grand Jury

  • last year
Atlanta-area prosecutors are preparing to present the findings of their investigation into election interference by former President Donald J. Trump and his allies to a grand jury in a move that raises the possibility of a fourth criminal indictment against Trump. Subpoenas have been issued to witnesses, including Geoff Duncan, the former lieutenant governor of Georgia, and George Chidi, an independent journalist, to testify before the grand jury. The Fulton County district attorney's office conducted the investigation, which has lasted two and a half years, focusing on whether Trump and his allies interfered in the 2020 election in Georgia. Unlike federal cases, a state-level indictment could not be pardoned by a re-elected president. If indicted, Trump would need to appear in Atlanta for booking and arraignment.
