Fulton County D.A. Willis has a message on possible Trump indictments: Get ready

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis said this summer she will announce whether or not Donald Trump and his allies will be indicted for crimes related to alleged interference in Georgia’s 2020 election. She sent a letter to local (Atlanta) law enforcement. She asked them to be ready for “heightened security and preparedness” because she predicted her announcement “may provoke a significant public reaction.”

Hmm. I wonder what she means by that. Oh, wait, no I don’t wonder. I predict that Willis will indict the former president who is now running for a second term and she may do the same to some of his allies that were called in to testify. Keep in mind that Willis is a very aggressive and ambitious woman who is up for re-election as this story plays out. She claims the fact that Trump allegedly called Georgia election officials and asked them to ‘find’ about 11,000 votes to erase his loss in the state in 2020 amounts to election interference.

The letter wasn’t so much to give a heads-up to law enforcement that they may need all hands on deck the day the indictments are announced if indictments are coming. It was to tease that indictments are coming. Unfortunately for the law enforcement agencies tasked with keeping the city peaceful, Willis gave a broad timeline when she notified them that possible criminal indictments may be issued between July 11 and September 1. She is signaling that she is seeking indictments against Trump and his allies.

Sheriff Patrick Labat sent a team to New York to study the intense security surrounding the former president’s unprecedented trip to the courthouse earlier this month. The challenges in Atlanta are different than in Manhattan, though.

Criminal charges against Trump could mean a security challenge the likes of which Atlanta hasn’t seen since the Super Bowl in 2019. Officials said they have been tested in recent years by heated protests, blockbuster events and high-profile court activity.

And while Fulton County officials learned from their counterparts in Manhattan the situation in metro Atlanta is different.

Here there are fewer police – New York City has roughly 18 times as many officers as the city of Atlanta. In Fulton County there are also likely to be multiple defendants. And Georgia has looser gun laws, raising the prospect of pistol-packing protesters outside the courthouse.

A 2014 Georgia law limits local government’s ability to restrict guns in public spaces. Anthony Kreis, an assistant professor of law at Georgia State University said state law prohibits carrying guns into courthouses but not surrounding areas. So, protesters may show up outside the courthouse and legally carry a gun. Gun rights alarm Democrats and apparently, this is a major concern for Fani Willis.

But Gary Kleck, professor emeritus in the College of Criminology & Criminal Justice at Florida State University and an expert on gun control and politics, said Georgia’s laws will make it tougher for police.

“Given the many Trump supporters who possessed guns on the Jan. 6 protests, Atlanta police have good reason to regard gun carrying by protesters as a serious threat and to see Georgia’s permitless carry law as a complication of their duty to protect people in the vicinity of a courthouse,” he said.

Those mean Trump supporters carrying their firearms and exercising their 2nd Amendment rights is what Willis is afraid will set Atlanta on fire. The sheriff’s office is coordinating with local, state, and federal agencies and is working on a comprehensive plan for increased security during the next few months.“One of my biggest concerns is the number of people that potentially could embark on Fulton County – what that looks like – and our goal is to keep our courthouse safe,” Labat said.

Labat reviewed courthouse security last year while Yates did the same for the adjacent buildings. Security at the Fulton courthouse is already ramped up because of the ongoing YSL gang trial.

“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 wrote. “As leaders, it is incumbent upon us to prepare.”

It’s pretty clear that Willis wouldn’t bother with a letter like this to law enforcement if she wasn’t going to indict Trump and/or his allies. She has indicated she would move in that direction for months. In January she told the judge overseeing the special grand jury that was investigating the 2020 Georgia election that her decision on charges was “imminent.” Then she walked that back after the remark caused a stir in the press, as she knew it would.

We’ll see if she pulls the trigger this summer. An indictment, in this case, could prove to be the most dangerous for Trump. Interfering with an election is not something a candidate running for president wants to be charged with, right? He’s already involved in the case in Manhattan, thanks to D.A. Bragg. And, he’s in court over the alleged rape charge by the author that allegedly happened decades ago. Add the Georgia case to the mix, as well as the investigation into the classified documents found in the Mar-a-Lago raid. It’s a pile-on to take out Trump from running for president. That’s what the Democrats are hoping for – voters will be distracted and move away from supporting Trump because of his legal problems on top of the chaos his first term as president was known for.

Fani Tafia Willis was raised by a single father, John Clifford Floyd, who was a criminal defense lawyer and a leader of the Black Panther Party. The Inglewood, Calif.-born Willis would go along when her father went to court on Saturday mornings.

She asked them to be ready for “heightened security and preparedness” because she predicted her announcement “may provoke a significant public reaction.”

She’s hoping for a riot, so she can demonize “MAGA Republicans” as violent insurrectionists, and call it “J6 2.0” or something similar.

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

The demon rats challenge the results of elections all the time.

No problem if you’re a RAT.

[MTBobcat]

So a Grump indictment is for some rather vague after and election, but she can indict the GOP front-runner before 2024 election and it’s not interference. These Leftists simply don’t care about laws, it all about lawfare on opponents and enabling her own violent constituents.

[MTBobcat]

It’s very vague and there were others on the call. How do you interfere with an election after it’s been conducted. This reminds me of the Russian email comment that Capser morons to freak out about.

[trustverify0128]

Not just about the phone call.

If he can be connected to the uncertified slate of electors it’s a whole new ball game, and honestly I think that’s what they’re trying to do. Willis will hand over her notes to Smith as part of his investigation.

The uncertified slate of electors could be used to charge him w/ perpetrating a fraud against the United States (in federal court).

But remember, this isn’t just about PDJT. Rudy was a target, and it looks like a large part of the GOP leadership in the state of Georgia.

(Of course, those indictments wouldn’t require extra security.)

There have been some recent reports that a number of the targets (including the GOP electors) are starting to turn on each other—making accusations against each other that (apparently) the special grandy jury never addressed—brand new accusations.
