Fulton County Grand Jury Was Totally Unhinged, Reveals Election Lawyer
The Federalist ^ | 9/11/23 | MARGOT CLEVELAND

Posted on 09/11/2023 6:21:45 AM PDT by CFW

It was a surreal experience,” attorney and election-law expert Cleta Mitchell told The Federalist, referring to the hours-long questioning she faced when called before the Fulton County special purpose grand jury.

“I knew coming out of there that the whole thing was a loose cannon,” Mitchell said, adding that “they were definitely going to recommend indicting basically all the Trump allies — it was a completely political situation — nothing to do with the law. NOTHING.”

With Friday’s release of the grand jury’s final report, Mitchell, who had represented former President Trump in his challenge to the Georgia 2020 election, is now speaking out. The report confirms Mitchell’s intuition: The grand jury recommended District Attorney Fani Willis charge a total of 39 people — “basically all the Trump allies” — not merely the 19 individuals the get-Trump prosecutor eventually indicted. The large number includes Sen. Lindsey Graham and former Republican Sens. David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler, both of Georgia. Like Graham, Perdue, and Loeffler, Mitchell was recommended for charges but not named in the sprawling RICO indictment handed down last month.

Now that the report is “all out in the open,” Mitchell is sharing some details of her experience, and they reveal just how unhinged from reality the special purpose grand jury — or at least its forewoman, Emily Kohrs — was.

Mitchell explained to The Federalist that when testifying, she had taken with her copies of the election-contest complaint and the memorandum of law filed with the court in support of that complaint. “At some point, the chairwoman that you’ve seen on TV,” a reference to Kohrs who had made the media rounds shortly after the special purpose grand jury disbanded, “asked me what I had in my hands,” Mitchell explained.

These questions further cement the reality that what Democrats are trying to do is criminalize election challenges brought by Republicans.

Yep

It’s time to start arresting all of these Soros arsehos who are trying to destroy President Trump and his family. Damn Nazi bastards. I never dreamed that der kleine Führer Soros would be able to build his own Third Reich here in America. I thought Americans had more sense than that.

As more and more info comes out as to how they arrived at their conclusions (in this case as well as Paxton’s in Texas) you begin to hear a common refrain: Charge the Pubs with violations of the law because they “felt” they broke the law.

It seems many of these nimrods are from the “give everyone a participation trophy” crowd growing up...

Marxist Democrats want to change the Constitution but can’t. So now they are just making stuff up.

Most grand jurors are people who have lived dull, boring lives and are looking for anything to call their “15 MINUTES” of fame. Just a little something to brag about and make them feel important.

I always pictured this grand jury to be filled with Democrat party activists who are thrilled to be puppets for their political leaders.

Great article. These people should be relieved of their responsibilities.

I am fearful of the people of Atlanta; will never visit there again; too dangerous and too unjust.

This is simply another example of more rot in our government.

Now, it's the justice system that has turned into nothing but a political hammer to bash and kill your opponent.

All this talk about prosecuting the prosecutor is simply words. It may make you feel better to get it off your chest -- it ain't going to change a thing.

Justice is now a two-tiered system. One system for the elite and another for the rest of us.

So much for the so-called "rule of law." It's now "law of the jungle."

Such a wretched, warped, confused and retarded looking twit. I recall a time when people like her were locked up in a mental ward rather than serving on a jury.
