The special purpose jury in Fulton County, Georgia, has finished its final report on its investigation into alleged criminal efforts by former President Donald Trump and other officials during the 2020 election.
The special jury, which was requested by District Attorney Fani Willis and approved in January 2022, reportedly submitted its final report and will await the ruling of Judge Robert McBurney on whether to make it public.

The jury received testimony from several high-profile politicians and officials, including Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, and ex-Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani.

Willis opened the investigation last year after audio surfaced of a call between Raffensperger and Trump, where the former president pushed the secretary of state to “find” 11,780 votes to secure a win in Georgia and overturn his loss in the 2020 election against President Joe Biden.
In May 2022, the special grand jury was granted power to help dole out subpoenas and recommend charges, but it cannot indict on its own. Willis can pursue a separate, regular grand jury to file criminal charges.
