Kenneth Chesebro, who was named alongside former President Donald Trump and 17 others in a racketeering case in Fulton County, Georgia, has pleaded not guilty ahead of Sept. 6 arraignments, waiving his right to appear in court (pdf).
The 19 defendants are being charged over actions to challenge the 2020 election results in Georgia, which prosecutor Fani Willis, the Fulton County district attorney, claims constituted a “criminal racketeering enterprise” and conspiracy. Mr. Chesebro served as an attorney for President Trump during that period, and helped to organize the alternate slate of electors.
