Georgia Indictment
Trump was indicted August 14 2023 in Atlanta, Georgia for his role in trying to overturn his loss in the 2020 presidential election. Trump and 18 other allies are accused of trying to pressure the Georgia Secretary of State to claim that he won, harassing an election worker with false claims of election fraud, as well as pressuring Georgia politicians to approve a fake slate of electors to the federal electoral college.
Trump and figures like former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani were charged under Georgia’s racketeering (RICO) laws.
