Trump Election Subversion Trial Could Extend into 2025, Says Fulton County DA

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis expects the trial in the Georgia election subversion case against Donald Trump and his allies to continue during the 2024 election and possibly conclude in early 2025. Trump already faces multiple legal troubles, including a civil trial beginning in January 2024 and two criminal trials in March. While some defendants have accepted plea deals, the trial for the remaining defendants is expected to begin no earlier than December. Willis believes that appeals in the case could extend for years and emphasizes that election cycles do not influence her decision-making process.
