Before the trial even begins in the case of alleged attempted election fraud against former US President Donald Trump in Georgia, the presiding judge has dismissed several charges.
The prosecutor failed to provide sufficient details about the alleged crime, according to Judge Scott McAfee’s written ruling. However, this does not mean that the charges against Trump will be dropped as a result.
Legal expert John Acevedo from Emory University School of Law explained in an interview with the news agency AP that while the charges included more than enough facts, the prosecutor forgot to specify which law was violated.
The trial, originally scheduled to begin on August 5th, will be further delayed as a result, according to attorney Amy Lee Copeland from Georgia on CNN. She explained that while the case will continue, the prosecution could rephrase their charges. Despite the delay, the lawsuit will not be dismissed.
By the end of this week, Judge McAfee is expected to decide whether the prosecutor Fani Willis should be removed from the case. Allegations suggest she is in a conflict of interest due to an extramarital affair with the lead investigator. If she is disqualified, her successor could determine whether the case against Trump will proceed.
