The Fulton County grand jury looking into whether then-President Donald Trump and his allies illegally tried to overturn his defeat in Georgia's 2020 presidential election has wrapped up its report after six months, a recent report by FOX 5 Atlanta said.  

This comes as Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney said he reviewed the report and recommend to the court’s chief judge that the special grand jury be dissolved. 

"We learned from the identity of the witnesses that this is a far-ranging conspiracy that she’s looking at," Norm Eisen, who served as special counsel to the House Judiciary Committee during the first Trump impeachment, told FOX 5 Atlanta.

According to the report, a hearing is now set for Jan. 24 to determine if the final report will be released to the public. While the special grand jury cannot issue indictments, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis — who began investigating nearly two years ago — said she could go to a regular grand jury to pursue charges if that is where the facts lead.

The Fulton County investigation is just one of several the Trump faces that could result in criminal charges being filed against the former president, who recently launched his 2024 campaign for a return to the White House.

The grand jury probe stems from a Jan. 2, 2021, phone call between Trump and Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, during which the president suggested he could "find" the votes needed to overturn his Georgia loss to President Joe Biden, FOX 5 said.
