The investigation into former President Donald Trump's efforts to change the 2020 election results in Georgia is the "most clear-cut criminal exposure" he is facing, according to at least one legal expert.
Fani Willis, the district attorney for Georgia's Fulton County, last year opened an investigation into Trump's efforts to overturn President Joe Biden's election victory in her state. Leaked audio revealed in January 2021 that Trump, while still serving as president, pressured Georgia's Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, a Republican, to "find 11,780 votes" to flip the results in his favor.
The probe has zeroed in on prominent Trump allies in recent days, as Willis has been presenting evidence and issuing subpoenas with a grand jury she convened in May. The district attorney sent so-called "target letters" to several high profile Georgia Republicans who were allegedly part of a plot to overturn the state's election results in connection with Trump and his team.
"The Fulton County probe represents the most clear-cut criminal exposure facing Mr. Trump," Bradley Moss, a national security lawyer and partner in the Law Office of Mark S. Zaid, told The Hill for an article published on Saturday.
"There is audio, there is witness testimony, there is documentation, and all of that is currently before a special grand jury. The only question is whether Mr. Trump's actions were sufficient to bring a criminal charge against him alone and independent of anyone else, or if the Fulton County DA will need to encompass his fragmented actions within a broader conspiracy charge tied to individuals like Mr. Giuliani and the fake electors," Moss explained.
Other legal experts have pointed to the probe in Georgia, assessing that it appears to be the strongest case against Trump that could result in criminal charges.
"Even now the proof is there, for example, with respect to strong-arming Raffensperger to steal the votes of Georgia, that's already there," Laurence Tribe, professor emeritus of constitutional law at Harvard University, told CBS News on Wednesday. "That's why I expect an indictment from Fani Willis in Fulton County, Georgia, even before an indictment from the Department of Justice."
Trump is sooooooooo FUCKED. Isn't it great? BWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAH
