Trump, 18 others indicted in Georgia over alleged 2020 election interference

Donald Trump was indicted Monday on multiple state charges that he allegedly conspired to interfere in the vote tally in Georgia in 2020 and urged his closest allies to take steps that would overturn his loss to U.S. President Joe Biden in the battleground state.

The sprawling indictment handed down late at night by a special grand jury in Fulton County marks the fourth criminal case Trump is now facing, adding more legal scrutiny of the former U.S. president as he seeks to reclaim the White House in 2024.

Eighteen alleged co-conspirators — including Rudy Giuliani, Trump’s White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, and other high-profile legal advisors and campaign officials — were also indicted for joining what prosecutors said was “a conspiracy to unlawfully change the outcome of the election in favour of Trump.”

The charges, brought by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, add to the legal woes facing Trump, the front-runner in the race for the Republican nomination for the 2024 presidential election.
