Trump's Bid to Quash Georgia Election Probe Denied by Judge

A judge has denied former President Donald Trump's attempt to halt Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis' investigation into his conduct following the 2020 presidential election. The judge rejected Trump's motion to disqualify Willis and quash the findings of a special grand jury. This ruling is the latest setback for Trump, who has faced multiple legal challenges in his efforts to impede the investigation. The probe was launched in February 2021 after Trump's phone call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, in which he urged him to "find 11,780 votes." Willis has indicated that her work is complete and an indictment of Trump may be forthcoming.
