An Atlanta district attorney is moving toward convening a special grand jury in her criminal investigation of election interference by Trump. Her inquiry is seen as potentially perilous for him given the myriad interactions he had with Georgia officials
As the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot fights to extract testimony and documents from Donald Trump’s White House, an Atlanta district attorney is moving toward convening a special grand jury in her criminal investigation of election interference by the former president and his allies, according to a person with direct knowledge of the deliberations.
By contrast, a special grand jury, which by Georgia statute would include 16-23 members, could focus solely on the potential case against Trump and his allies. Willis is likely to soon take the step, according to a person with direct knowledge of the deliberations, speaking on the condition of anonymity because the decision is not final. Although such a jury could issue subpoenas, Willis would need to return to a regular grand jury to seek criminal indictments.
Of Trump’s call, Raffensperger wrote, “I felt then — and still believe today — that this was a threat.” “I think he worsened his exposure with those comments,” Eisen said. “The mere fact of his conversation with Kemp is evidence of solicitation of election fraud, because Trump’s demand was based on falsehoods. By commenting on it further at the rally, he offered the prosecution free admissions about the content of that exchange.”
