Atlanta’s district attorney will announce later this year whether she will bring criminal charges in her investigation into former President Donald Trump’s alleged efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.
Fulton County DA Fani Willis’ timetable was revealed in letters to local law enforcement agencies asking them to prepare for “significant public reaction” to her announcement, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Monday.
The letters indicated that Willis will reveal possible criminal indictments between July 11 and Sept. 1.
“Please accept this correspondence as notice to allow you sufficient time to prepare the Sheriff’s Office and coordinate with local, state and federal agencies to ensure that our law enforcement community is ready to protect the public,” Willis wrote to Fulton County Sheriff Patrick Labat, according to the news outlet.
“We have seen in recent years that some may go outside of public expressions of opinion that are protected by the First Amendment to engage in acts of violence that will endanger the safety of those we are sworn to protect,” Willis adds in her missive to Labat.
