Members of the Fulton County grand jury that voted to indict former President Donald Trump on Monday are facing threats after their personal information began circulating online, authorities said Thursday.

"The Fulton County Sheriff's Office is aware that personal information of members of the Fulton County Grand Jury is being shared on various platforms," the sheriff's office said in a statement Thursday.

"As the lead agency, our investigators are working closely with local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies to track down the origin of threats in Fulton County and other jurisdictions," the statement said.

"We take this matter very seriously and are coordinating with our law enforcement partners to respond quickly to any credible threat and to ensure the safety of those individuals who carried out their civic duty," said the statement.

As required by Georgia law, the grand jurors' names were made public by the district attorney's office as part of the grand jury process.

I thought that the Democrats have long established this as fair play.

Already starting with the faux complaints-it is public info-and I doubt they have been threatened anyway...

Blame Fani Willis. She is the one who publicly posted their names. I’m sure it is progressives pretending to be conservatives if threats are being made. Notice that democrats are always stating they are receiving threatening emails, but how often is anyone arrested? You know LEOs can track who these threats are coming from and it is telling that no one has been identified or arrested. If it is conservatives making the threats they will be arrested.

I doubt they are receiving many threats, but they deserve it if they are.

Commies have been doxing decent folk for years. No sympathy. Hope it inconveniences the hell out of them. Go pound sand.

Notice how they never provide any documentation of these supposed threats. We’re just supposed to believe that they happened.

And if they’re anonymous and did happen, who’s to say it wasn’t a Democrat that did it?

I’m not in favor of physical force either, yet sometimes it’s the only answer. City Official Police actions are a simple example. Our Republic is divided as much now as in 1860. It won’t surprise me if pushing and shoving goes to an all out fight.

I just got a error trying to upload a capture noting reporting about the Georgia Anti-Trump grand jury foreperson promoting witchcraft on her(?) Pinterest account...

That seems to be the barrel they are digging these (not so grand) Get Trump Juries” out of, but we’ve just been warned that if we notice and share, the “State” may come after us.

Perhaps my image host is trying to save me (or themselves) a “State” visit.

Again let me say threats are counterproductive. If they figure out who you are you get in trouble. If you don’t carry them out you look like a fool. If you actually intend to carry them out you put the recipient on guard. And along the same lines if some one else is planning to actually do something you diminish their chances of getting away with it. So either do something or not but don’t make threats. As an aside threatening legal action is probably ok except then if you don’t follow through again you will look like a fool.

FYI, there was an article posted a week prior to the indictment that essentially stated that grand jurors names appear on indictments as a matter of law in GA. It’s not like federal indictments or other states. Personally, I am torn about whether it’s a good thing or not because I don’t like the grand jury process in general. I strongly believe in being able to face your accusers and being able to provide a defense through the entire justice lifecycle.

If it matters, the jurors names were listed but their votes were not. It is quite possible that one or more jurors, but not a majority, voted against indictment.

Maybe they will have to engage counsel and spend money for no good reason. I’m out of sympathy. Too bad.
