The prosecutor filed a motion to dismiss the charges against Donald Trump
Skandalakis wrote in his motion to dismiss that the crime charged in the Georgia case “was conceived in Washington, D.C., not in the State of Georgia. The proper venue for this charge is the federal government, not the State of Georgia.”
However, this does not mean the end of the matter for people who supported Donald Trump. 14 other people, including former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani and former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows are still facing allegations of interference in the electoral process. Judgments in their cases have not yet been rendered.
