EXCLUSIVE: @ajccourts and I sat down with five of the Fulton County special grand jurors, who gave us a detailed, behind the scenes look at their eight months of service ajc.com/politics/exclu…#gapol
@ajccourts Among the new details they shared: 1. They heard a third Trump tape, a call with the late Georgia House Speaker David Ralston, 2. former U.S. Sen. David Perdue testified, 3. law enforcement was concerned about who might turn up on Mike Flynn's day that they brought in a bomb dog
@ajccourts We had previously known that Ralston and Trump had spoken in Dec. 2020, but the existence of a tape wasn't public knowledge. Audio of Trump's calls to Brad Raffensperger and elections investigator Frances Watson were almost immediately leaked to the press #gapol
Happening today: Michael Flynn to testify today before the Fulton County special grand jury after a two-month court fight ajc.com/politics/flynn…#gapol
Flynn’s appearance is a victory for DA Fani Willis, who has been fighting for his testimony for two months. He was compelled to appear after an appeals court in his home state of Florida denied his push for a stay on Tuesday ajc.com/politics/flynn…
Prosecutors have indicated they’re interested in questioning Flynn about the circumstances related to his pardon, the wild Oval Office meeting he reportedly participated in in Dec 2020, comments he made to Newsmax about seizing voting machines and more ajc.com/politics/flynn…
Flynn is one of the last remaining high-profile witnesses who has yet to testify. He's scheduled to appear before the special grand jury on Thursday #gapol
Florida appeals court ruling came three weeks after a circuit court judge directed Trump's former national security adviser to testify ajc.com/neighborhoods/…
Fulton prosecutors say the grand jury's work is almost done and have suggested we could see its final recommendations in the not-too-distant future
New: The @ajc is opposing a request by the Fulton County DA’s office to put under seal court documents it intends to file in the ongoing investigation of former President Donald Trump and his allies via @ajccourts #gapolajc.com/news/crime/ajc…
In a Monday court filing, the Fulton DA's office asked a Fulton judge for permission to file a motion under seal, saying it contained sensitive info. We don't know what it's regarding, but the DA's request was cced to attorneys representing 11 of the 16 fake GOP electors #gapol
The ongoing investigation “is a matter of profound public interest,” the AJC's motion argued. “Indeed, it is difficult to imagine a special purpose grand jury investigation of more public importance than this one.”
