I wonder, Will Willis use RICO charges to nail the traitors. [View all]

She has used it before so she has experience. From what I have read about RICO you target the group not the individual. A conspiracy. A pattern of the group who are committing crimes covered under RICO laws. Georgia has their own RICO laws. It covers a wide array of possible charges. You basically just have to prove a conspiracy took place. There was definitely a pattern of a group of people trying to illegally over turn the election in Georgia.

It may be easier to nail Trump as part of a group, conspiracy. Instead of trying to nail him as an individual.

It will be interesting to see how she handles this, stay tuned.

Willis has been investigating Trump and the coup plotters. We now know she is going to indict people. It is fair to say she is going to indict the coup plotters. We don't who, how many, what the charges are. But the writing is on the wall.
