Fulton County prosecutors are expected to appear before a grand jury this week seeking subpoenas for documents and witnesses related to their investigation of former President Donald Trump and some of his top associates for possible election fraud, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has learned.

Legal experts are split as to whether there’s a strong case to be made, but most agree Trump’s efforts to overturn Georgia’s election results merit greater scrutiny. Fani Willis, Fulton’s new district attorney, has said she’s prepared to follow the evidence wherever it leads.

Some believe the recording of Trump’s Jan. 2 phone call with Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger leaning on him to “find” the votes to reverse Joe Biden’s win is grounds to move forward.

“If there were a textbook (example of) how to commit criminal election fraud, this would be it,” said Atlanta attorney David Walbert, who has represented Fulton County and the state of Georgia in several elections and redistricting cases.

1. I don't see how this is NOT election fraud.

2. I want to see El Trumpo on the stand.

And a female judge that gives him all that he deserves.

3. How many Republicans are on the grand jury?

If the Repugs are in the majority, there is no way the grand jury will return a true bill against Trump, despite overwhelming evidence that he attempted to interfere in an election. "I could stand in the middle of Atlanta and shoot somebody and not lose a single grand juror."
