A special grand jury in Atlanta that was investigating whether former President Donald Trump and his allies committed any crimes while trying to overturn his 2020 election loss in Georgia has completed its work.
Judge Robert McBurney, who has been overseeing the Fulton County special grand jury investigation, wrote in Monday’s short court order that the grand jurors have delivered their final report and that a majority of the county’s superior court judges voted to dissolve the special grand jury.
The order also says the grand jury will issue a final report that serves as a mechanism for the special grand jury to recommend whether Fulton County prosecutors should pursue criminal charges.
The grand jury was formed in March 2021 and was tasked with investigating whether Trump and his allies violated the law in their efforts to overturn the 2020 election. It was the first grand jury in the country to investigate the former president.
The grand jury’s dissolution comes as Trump continues to face legal scrutiny in multiple states. In Georgia, the state’s attorney general is investigating whether Trump and his allies attempted to influence the state’s 2020 election results.
The grand jury’s dissolution marks the end of a months-long investigation into Trump and his allies. It is unclear what the grand jury’s final report will say, or whether it will recommend any criminal charges.
