BREAKING: State drops Trump election interference case
Donald Trump's Fulton County mugshot
This is a developing story.
Fulton County Superior Court judge Scott McAfee issued a one-page dismissal of the sprawling racketeering case against President Donald Trump, essentially ending Georgia’s prosecution of the former-and-current President and co-conspirators in their alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
The prosecutor who’d recently taken on the case, Pete Skandalakis “wrote in a memo accompanying the notice that overt acts listed in the indictment that were taken by the president and other Republicans “are not acts I would consider sufficient” to sustain a racketeering case. Skandalakis said that after reviewing the evidence, he concluded that a federal prosecution was more appropriate than one pursued by the state of Georgia, and said the “strongest and most prosecutable case” against those who allegedly sought to overturn the results of the 2020 election was the one being pursued by former special counsel Jack Smith.” (CBS News).
