Former President Donald Trump and 18 of his allies and supporters were indicted Monday by a Georgia grand jury in connection with his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results in the Peach State.
Also charged in the indictment —which was signed by Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney shortly before 9 p.m. and unsealed approximately two hours later — were former Trump attorneys Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, Sidney Powell, Jenna Ellis, and Kenneth Chesebro.
Also accused were former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, ex-Justice Department official Jeffrey Clark and Trump 2020 Election Day Director of Operations Michael Roman.
Trump, 77, faces 13 counts in the case, matching a docket prematurely posted to the Fulton County Superior Court’s website around noon.
Hours after the indictment was handed down, the former commander-in-chief took to Truth Social to rail against Georgia prosecutors, saying, “So, the Witch Hunt continues! 19 people indicated tonight, including the former President of the United States, me, by an out of control and very corrupt District Attorney who campaigned and raised money on, ‘I will get Trump.’
