A grand jury of Georgia citizens has issued indictments related to efforts by Donald Trump and his allies’ alleged efforts to overturn the will of the voters and invalidate the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia. In so doing, the grand jury considered recommendations made by a special grand jury in January 2023.

This initial special grand jury of 23 Georgia citizens began reviewing evidence and hearing testimony related to or from at least 75 different witnesses back in May of 2022. They reviewed evidence for eight months, and ultimately recommended multiple indictments. While the indictment recommendations in their report have still not been made fully public, some portions have been released. 

At the same time the special grand jury recommended indictments for certain individuals based on alleged attempts to overturn the election based on unsupported claims of “fraud”, the special grand jury found NO evidence of widespread election fraud in Georgia that could have affected the 2020 election. 

The regular grand jury reviewed evidence and heard from multiple witnesses, including state elections officials in August of 2023. The indictments they issued are the result of two separate juries of American citizens and community members carefully considering the evidence and deciding criminal charges are appropriate. 

Many Trump allies and supporters have already gone to prison to protect Trump, many believing that he would protect them. The indictments recommended by a grand jury in Fulton County, stand only to add to that list.
