Fulton County, GA District Attorney Fani Willis has evidence that allies of Donald Trump planned to use stolen voting data to try to block certification of the Georgis Senate election.
CNN reported:
The plot to breach voting systems in Coffee County, coordinated by members of Trump’s legal team, including Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell, is part of a broader criminal investigation into 2020 election interference led by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
Willis’ office is weighing a potential racketeering case against multiple defendants and is actively deciding who to bring charges against, sources tell CNN. Willis has subpoenaed a number of individuals involved in the Coffee County breach, including the two men who carried it out who were in touch with Penrose and Logan.
