Georgia prosecutors have announced that they will present their case against former President Donald Trump to a grand jury early next week. This development comes as two witnesses, former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan and independent journalist George Chidi, have received notices to appear before the grand jury.
If the grand jury proceeds with criminal charges, this could be Trump’s fourth criminal indictment this year. Duncan confirmed his notice to appear and expressed his willingness to recount the facts. Chidi, on the other hand, shared on social media that he too has been called to provide testimony.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has been leading the investigation into Trump and his associates’ attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election in Georgia. The probe includes the notorious phone call on January 2, 2021, where Trump urged Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to find enough votes to change the election outcome.
Willis’ investigation goes beyond the phone call and encompasses various potentially illegal activities surrounding the election. Chidi even witnessed and reported on a meeting of Republican state lawmakers, where they discussed an alternative slate of electors to benefit Trump. The special grand jury had previously recommended indictments but lacked the power to issue them, leading to the involvement of a regular grand jury.
Duncan sees this as an opportunity to shed light on the truth about Trump’s actions and the people involved. He believes that Trump and his allies knew exactly what they were doing. Meanwhile, Trump faces criminal charges in other jurisdictions, including Manhattan and Washington, D.C., related to hush money payments and attempts to overturn the election results.
Despite these legal challenges, Trump has pleaded not guilty to all charges. The upcoming grand jury presentation in Georgia adds another chapter to the legal saga surrounding the former president’s actions.
