BREAKING: A grand jury in Georgia investigating Donald Trump's attempts to overturn his 2020 election loss has handed up a criminal indictment.
A grand jury in Georgia investigating Donald Trump's alleged attempts to overturn his 2020 election loss has handed up a criminal indictment.Officials with the Fulton County Court handed the indictment to Judge Robert McBurney, but did not make them public.
Media accounts showed images of a cover sheet saying the grand jury had returned 10 indictments, but did not say who was indicted or what charges were filed. ABC North America bureau chief Jade Macmillan said cameras inside the Fulton County courthouse captured the clerk handing up a pile of papers to the judge during a late-night sitting.The clerk told reporters that it could be up to three hours before the details of the indictments are made public.
The investigation stems from a January 2, 2021 phone call in which Mr Trump allegedly urged Georgia's top election official Brad Raffensperger to "find" enough votes to reverse his narrow loss in the state.Four days later, Mr Trump's supporters stormed the US Capitol in an attempt to prevent Congress from certifying Joe Biden's victory.
