The breakdown

1. The Fulton County special grand jury released parts of their report on the 2020 election.

  • While the report didn't name specific witnesses, the grand jury reports they believe at least one of their 75 witness may have committed perjury. Jurors also note they saw no evidence that the 2020 election was "rigged."
  • The special grand jury did recommend some unknown individuals be indicted "where evidence is compelling," but District Attorney Fani Willis would have to seek indictments with a regular grand jury.
