The lawyer for Sidney Powell is trying to extricate her from the criminal case against former President Donald Trump in Georgia. Ms. Powell, a lawyer and former federal prosecutor who unsuccessfully challenged the 2020 election results, wasn’t really involved in the activities alleged in the indictment, her lawyer, Brian Rafferty, told the Fulton County court.
The sprawling indictment brought on Aug. 14 by Fulton County district Attorney Fani Willis alleges that the efforts of President Trump, Ms. Powell, and 17 others to challenge the election results amounted to a racketeering conspiracy.
