Former President Donald Trump’s attorney last week said that if his client becomes the Republican nominee for president, holding a trial in Georgia in the months leading up to the general election would be deemed as "election interference."
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee opened a discussion for trial timing when the former president’s attorney Steve Sadow suggested that if Trump secures victory in the 2024 election, he would be immune from facing a criminal trial in Georgia until at least 2029 – after he is no longer in office.
