Georgia Election Interference Case: New Prosecutor Takes Over After Willis’ Departure
The Georgia racketeering case against Donald Trump and his allies will now be overseen by Peter Skandalakis, director of the Prosecuting Attorney’s Council of Georgia, after several other prosecutors declined to take on the case. Originally launched by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, the case faced legal challenges that led to Willis’s removal. Skandalakis received the investigative file and is reviewing it, with a status conference scheduled for December 1. While a former U.S. attorney is skeptical the case will proceed, Trump’s defense maintains his innocence and confidence in a dismissal.
