All Eyes on Georgia as Trump Could Face Fourth Indictment

A potential fourth indictment stemming from the Fulton County investigation into former President Donald Trump could include racketeering charges as a grand jury is expected to make a decision in the coming days.

Like the federal charges that came down last week in Washington, D.C., accusing Trump of four counts of conspiracy and obstruction to overturn the 2020 election, the potential indictment out of Georgia will lean on his alleged attempts to overturn the election results in the state, such as his call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, asking him to “find 11,780 votes.”

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has successfully brought similar cases under Georgia’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, or RICO. The state’s law is modeled after the federal statute of 1970, which was intended to counter mafia crime networks.

When Willis first began her election interference investigation in 2021, she tapped one of Georgia’s ranking experts on racketeering charges, John E. Floyd, to advise the investigation. He has worked on major RICO cases for the district attorney’s office, including the 2013 Atlanta school cheating case which saw 35 indictments and eventually 11 convictions.
