Prosecutors in Georgia on Monday seemingly accidentally published the charges they plan to bring against former president Donald Trump over his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in the Peach State.
A two-page docket was posted on the Fulton County court’s website that detailed charges against Trump, including racketeering, conspiracy and false statements, according to Reuters. However, the docket was quickly removed from the site on Monday.
A grand jury in the case is expected to hear testimony on Monday and Tuesday. An indictment against Trump and his allies could come early this week.
Fulton County district attorney Fani Willis, a Democrat, is reportedly expected to seek more than a dozen charges against the former president.
Willis's investigation, which began in early 2021, centered on alleged efforts from Trump and his allies to pressure election officials and a plan to put forward fake electors. The investigation launched shortly after Trump called Georgia secretary of state Brad Raffensperger and pressured him to “find” the votes needed to flip the state in his favor. Trump maintained earlier this month that it was a “perfect phone call.”
Wow, there's going to be a lot of karma coming down on this. Go Trump!
