The Georgia investigation. What we know so far.

DA Willis is not as secretive as Garland. She has her own way of doing things. She has stated if people are convicted they will face prison terms. She also said a decision should be made by late fall on whether to call Trump to testify in front of the Special Grand Jury.

We know at least 17 people have been named targets. Rudy and the 16 fake electors. Willis stated more will be added to that list. When you are named a target there is a good chance you will be indicted.

In addition to the investigation of Trump and the fake electors scheme, Willis is also investigating Trumps infamous phone call, false statements to lawmakers, harassment of election officials and tampering of election systems.

Willis said the fact finding stage of the investigation should be completed by the end of the year. When the Special Grand Jury is finished hearing from witnesses they will issue a report that will recommend indictments. Willis will then decide on who will or will not be indicted.

Other people who are potential targets are Powell, Meadows, Boris Epshteyn, Graham, and of course Trump.

Willis said the Georgia RICO statute allows a prosecutor to tell a jury the full story of a conspiracy including any acts outside of her county.

After the elections are over expect the Georgia investigation to heat up. Yes, Willis is also respecting our election process. This investigation could be the first investigation to bring forward major indictments for Trump and his inner circle in the attempted coup.
