Judge denies request to sever Georgia charges from Sidney Powell in Kenneth Chesebro case
A judge has denied Kenneth Chesebro's request to separate his charges in the Georgia election interference case from fellow attorney Sidney Powell, stating that it is not necessary for a fair trial. However, the judge expressed doubts about trying all 19 co-defendants together, including former President Trump. Chesebro and Powell both sought a speedy trial but wanted to be tried separately. The judge has not made a final ruling on whether the other defendants will be tried in October and has given prosecutors until Tuesday to argue how the logistics of a joint trial would work.
