One legal scholar says the new criminal indictment in Georgia against former President Donald Trump looks highly politicized, but he’s doubtful that the charges will go away without a court trial.
On Monday evening, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis unveiled a 98-page indictment, alleging President Trump and at least 18 co-defendants were involved in a 41-count criminal conspiracy to upend the 2020 election results. President Trump specifically faces 13 different criminal charges, including violating the Georgia Racketeer Influenced And Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, three counts of solicitation of a violation of oath by a public officer, conspiracy to commit impersonating a public officer, two counts of conspiracy to commit forgery in the first degree, two counts of conspiracy to commit filing of false documents, two counts of conspiracy to commit false statements and writings, and two counts of committing false statements and writings.
