A Grand Jury in Georgia indicted Donald Trump and 18 of his allies late Monday night.
The former president and 18 other people who worked for him or supported him were charged with engaging in a ‘criminal enterprise’ to illegally overturn the results of the 2020 election in the state of Georgia.
It is the fourth indictment of Trump this year - an unprecedented political and legal situation.
It is a massive 98-page Criminal Indictment.
Trump tops the list of other defendants, but here are some stand-outs. He has been charged with 13 felony counts.
The criminal charges vary from defendant to defendant.
We begin with former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows.
Kenneth Chesebro and John Eastman, architects of the plan to use fake Trump electors to circumvent the popular vote, and Jeffrey Clark, a former senior official in the Department of Justice who embraced false claims about the election.
This is the text from pages 13-14 of the Indictment:
"Defendant Donald John Trump lost the United States presidential election held on November 3, 2020. One of the states he lost was Georgia. Trump and the other Defendants charged in this Indictment refused to accept that Trump lost, and they knowingly and willfully joined a conspiracy to unlawfully change the outcome of the election in favor of Trump. That conspiracy contained a common plan and purpose to commit two or more acts of racketeering activity in Fulton County, Georgia, elsewhere in the State of Georgia, and in other states."
Other lawyers who aided Trump’s efforts and were indicted include Sidney Powell and Jenna Ellis.
Here is the list:
DONALD JOHN TRUMP, RUDOLPH WILLIAM LOUIS GIULIANI, JOHN CHARLES EASTMAN, MARK RANDALL MEADOWS, KENNETH JOHN CHESEBRO, JEFFREY BOSSERT CLARK, JENNA LYNN ELLIS, RAY STALLINGS SMITH III, ROBERT DAVID CHESLEY, MICHAEL A.ROMAN, DAVID JAMES SHAFER, SHAWN MICAH TRESIHER STILL, STEPHEN CLIFFGARD LEE HARRISON.
