BREAKING: Trump And Co-Defendants Have Six Charges Dropped In 2020 Election Case By Georgia Judge

On Wednesday, Judge Scott McAfee, the state judge presiding over the 2020 election RICO case brought by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis against Donald Trump and 18 other co-defendants, ruled that the state had failed to make specific enough allegations to warrant three charges that were brought against the 45th president. The judge also found that three other charges brought against co-defendants were not warranted either.

The judge noted that the charges, which have to deal with soliciting elected officials to violate their oaths of office, could be refiled within six months with additional evidence from Fani Willis' office, but he ruled that the charges did not suffice as written. "The Court's concern is less that the State has failed to allege sufficient conduct of the Defendants - in fact it has alleged an abundance. However, the lack of detail concerning an essential legal element is ... fatal," the judge wrote.
