Georgia grand jury finds 'no widespread fraud' in election, but possible perjury by witnesses

[Scott]

 

The Fulton County, Georgia, grand jury investigating efforts by former President Donald Trump and his allies to overturn the results of the 2020 election has recommended to prosecutors that they seek indictments against witnesses who they believe may have lied during their testimony, according to excerpts of the grand jury's report released Thursday.

 

"A majority of the grand jury believes that perjury may have been committed by one or more witnesses and testifying before it," the grand jury wrote in the report. "The grand jury recommends that the district attorney seek appropriate indictments for such crimes where the evidence is compelling,"

Looking forward to seeing which “witnesses” are hauled up for perjury.

75 witnesses , some person or persons allegedly committed perjury under oath ! But no mention of who! All that time wasted and all they have is a may have been.

The names are redacted in order to prevent issues arising out a prosecution. The prosecutor went to court to prevent publication of their names. Indictments are "imminent".

Why Team Trump's response to the partial Georgia grand jury report is nonsense

 

We finally got the very limited portion of the Georgia special grand jury report Thursday, and Donald Trump's team wasted little time putting out a statement in response.

 

The problem with this statement, which came from a spokesman for Trump's 2024 campaign, is that it's nonsense.

 

Here's how it starts:

The long awaited important sections of the Georgia report, which do not even mention President Trump’s name, have nothing to do with the President because President Trump did absolutely nothing wrong.

Clearly, you don't understand the differences between a special grand jury, a grand jury, and a jury.

Actually, she's the forewoman of a special grand jury. A special grand jury can't indict anybody. It can recommend  to a grand jury that it indict people.

Foreperson on Georgia grand jury investigating Trump and 2020 election: ‘I don’t think you will be shocked’ by indictments

The foreperson of the Atlanta-based grand jury that investigated former President Donald Trump’s attempts to overturn the 2020 election told CNN on Tuesday that the panel is recommending multiple indictments and suggested “the big name” may be on the list.

“Can you imagine doing this for eight months and not coming out with a whole list” of recommended indictments, Emily Kohrs told CNN. “It’s not a short list, it’s not.”

She continued, “there may be some names on that list that you wouldn’t expect. But the big name that everyone keeps asking me about – I don’t think you will be shocked.”
