Fulton county prosecutors prepare racketeering charges in Trump inquiry
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/jul/21/georgia-trump-charges-fraud-election-2020The Fulton county district attorney investigating Donald Trumps efforts to overturn the 2020 election results in the state of Georgia has developed evidence to charge a sprawling racketeering indictment next month, according to two people briefed on the matter.
The racketeering statute in Georgia requires prosecutors to show the existence of an enterprise and a pattern of racketeering activity that is predicated on at least two qualifying crimes.
In the Trump investigation, the Fulton county district attorney, Fani Willis, has evidence to pursue a racketeering indictment predicated on statutes related to influencing witnesses and computer trespass, the people said.

Wagner Group founder Yevgeny Prigozhin is back to humiliating the Kremlin and threatening to sabotage Vladimir Putins war effort.
"Russia is on the brink of catastrophe, he said in an interview with a pro-war military blogger on Saturday, openly calling B.S. on the Kremlins repeated claims that all is going according to plan in Ukraine.
"We need to stop deceiving the population and telling them that everything is fine, he said, accusing Russias top military brass of deluding themselves about the war or "not giving a damn.
Prigozhin blamed his foe, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, for a lack of ammunition that he said could cost Russia the war.
Apparently for added effect, he also threatened to tattle on Shoigu to Putin personally.
"The bell is already ringing, were sounding the alarm, he said.
The group, he said, has enough rounds of ammunition left only "for days, not weeks.
But he made his scorn for military leaders abundantly clear, admitting that the Russian armys military gains in Ukraine have been laughable.
"What have we even done [since Feb. 24]? Weve turned the Russian army the second army in the world into what? Who the hell knows. What kind of army are we if we couldnt even manage with itty bitty Ukraine?
He went on to warn that Ukraines counteroffensive is right around the corner, but said that among Russias military brass, "nobody gives a damn.
Wagner, he said, is recovering "thousands and thousands of bodies of its dead fighters "every day.
According to him, it wont be long before he will hold "those accountable who are responsible for the deaths of thousands of Russian guys.
