Pro-Trump Lawyer Lin Wood Turned State’s Witness in Georgia Racketeering Case, DA Reveals
The Messenger ^ | 9/20/2023 | Adam Klasfeld

Posted on 09/20/2023 12:04:21 PM PDT by Alter Kaker

One of the most visible purveyors of conspiracy theories that Donald Trump lost the 2020 election due to massive fraud has become one of the "witnesses for the state" in the former president's Georgia racketeering case, Fulton County prosecutors revealed on Wednesday.

A once-celebrated defamation lawyer, attorney L. Lin Wood represented the parents of slain child beauty queen JonBenét Ramsey and helped secure the vindication of Richard Jewell, the security guard falsely accused of plotting to set off pipe bombs at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. His efforts to help Trump overturn his electoral defeat have put him on the defensive ever since.

In July, Wood surrendered his law license under the shroud of disciplinary proceedings that otherwise could have led to his disbarment. A Georgia special grand jury recommended that Wood face criminal charges in connection with his efforts to topple Joe Biden's win in the Peach State, but Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis declined to indict him.

On Wednesday, Willis may have revealed why.

In a filing arguing that attorneys for Trump's co-defendants may have conflicts of interest, Willis named Wood as one of the people slated to serve as "witnesses for the state."

The ones they can’t pressure to turn they accuse of “groping”.

Lin Wood is a nut job. He was an attention whore about the election complaints, and he’s just a whore now.

BS article. The first paragraph gives the bias away.

At least he uncovered truth about the innocence of the late Richard Jewell; since then, counterproductive to say the least.

So...Willis threatened Wood with indictment unless he turns state's evidence to help her sham of a case against Trump./

SSOD. She needs to be charged severely.

Lin Wood is a nut job.

Bite your tongue mister!! He shall be thrust upon the shoulders of every biased media outlet ever created. He will now have extensive credibility, "The" inside the track guru, a rational man with convection who saw the light, a solid trustworthy lawyer with vast experience who so how go caught up in "election fraud" frenzie. Meet The Press is probably sending a car right now to pick him up.

He never was directly connected to Trump, so he’s going to suggest that those other people that he did have contact with did so from Trump’s orders.

This lunatic was always a Democrat.

So many of the MAGA full-mooners are life-long Democrats and Bernie Bros

More “leaking” probably with the urging of Deranged Smith, but Trump shouldn’t be allowed to fight back, just be a punching bag.

Way back when Lin Wood was filing 2020 election lawsuits, it was evident that he was filing fugitive documents replete with numerous spelling and grammatical errors. The filings also contained a great deal of conclusory and declarative statements without the requisite citation to legal authority. I characterized Wood as not a serious person.

Some here believed in Wood's outlandish conduct. To them, I'd like to say, “I told you so.” But I won't because those people are unfortunately true believers who are guided by irrational cultish beliefs.

He’ll get the Michael Avenetti treatment!

Anyway, he’ll say he has finally gotten the psychiatric help he needed, is on his meds, and now sees the light.
