A special grand jury investigating efforts to overturn Georgia’s 2020 presidential election results recommended indictments against a much larger group than prosecutors ultimately charged, including one current and two former U.S. senators.
Senate Judiciary Oversight Committee Ranking Member Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., speaks during a hearing to examine Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act and related surveillance authorities, Tuesday, June 13, 2023, on Capitol Hill in Washington.
There are many reasons Willis might have chosen not to charge them all, including immunity deals with some, federal protections for others or insufficient evidence to prove the charges beyond a reasonable doubt.The special grand jury included Graham’s name in a section about “the national effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election,” which Republican President Trump lost to Joe Biden, a Democrat.
A spokesperson for Trump, the early front-runner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, criticized Friday’s release as “biased, un-American.”
