Key Takeaways

On August 14, 2023, a grand jury convened by District Attorney Fani Willis in Fulton County, Georgia, indicted former President Donald Trump and 18 of his allies on violations of 16 Georgia statutes. These charges include violations of Georgia’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, or RICO.

All 19 defendants have surrendered at the Fulton County jail and entered a not guilty plea.

Defendants Sidney Powell and Kenneth Chesebro exercised their speedy trial rights and their trials were set for October 23, 2023, in Fulton County Court. In the days leading up to trial, both pled guilty and were sentenced for their offenses. Jenna Ellis has also pled guilty and was sentenced for her offenses. Several defendants have filed various pre-trial motions (regarding removal, discovery, and dismissal).
