ATLANTA — After meeting for more than seven months, sifting through mountains of evidence and hearing testimony from dozens of witnesses, the 23 members of the Fulton County special grand jury are expected to soon issue a final report detailing their findings and recommending next steps.
The jurors are tasked with helping Fulton District Attorney Fani Willis determine whether former President Donald Trump or his allies broke any state laws as they sought to overturn Georgia’s 2020 election results.
Their final report, known as a special presentment, could be finalized within weeks. And while it will ultimately be up to Willis to decide whether anyone should be charged with a crime, the special grand jury has an important role to play in synthesizing its investigation and making any “recommendations concerning criminal prosecution as it shall see fit,” according to its authorization.
