A special grand jury in Fulton County, Georgia, believes that “perjury may have been committed” by one or more witnesses in the investigation of whether former President Donald Trump and his allies criminally interfered in the state’s 2020 presidential election.

Noting this in its final report (pdf)—a portion of which was released on Thursday, Feb. 16—the jury recommended that the district attorney “seek appropriate indictments for such crimes where the evidence is compelling.”
