Donald Trump will likely soon be hit with a “massive conspiracy case” out of Georgia for allegedly attempting to overturn the election there, and there could be dozens of defendants who join him, according to a former prosecutor.
Former prosecutor Glenn Kirschner appeared on MSNBC to discuss Trump’s criminal probe and case, and was asked about Trump’s legal woes in Georgia. It has been reported that the prosecutor there, Fani Willis, is nearing a charging decision.
Kirschner noted that he has been expecting a large case from Willis, perhaps charging around a dozen people, because of actions she took before this month.
“I became convinced that the district attorney Fani Willis was going to indict probably a massive conspiracy case when she did something that was really unusual. I had never seen it done as a prosecutor. She sent a letter to the judges of Fulton County, the Fulton County court, saying that we respectfully request that you set no trials for two weeks in August,” he said. “The week of august 7th and 14th, and you set no in-person hearings during those two weeks. That is an incredible ask of a prosecutor to courts, please clear your dockets, clear the decks.”
He added:
The “only real inference there is that she knows full well that she is going to drop a massive conspiracy indictment that will probably include, according to one of the grand jurors who gave some interviews after the special purpose grand jury had concluded its work, perhaps dozens of people. She is going to need those two weeks to run all of those defendants through court for their arraignment. That is their first court appearance. It is going to take time and she’s asked the judges to clear their decks for two weeks in August so she can do that.”
