Legal Pitfalls of the Fulton County Trump Case

The former federal prosecutor, Andy McCarthy, argues that the case brought by district attorney Fannie Willis is ill-conceived and an attempt to turn the federal and political investigation of the January 6th committee into a state-level case. He points out that there is no unifying crime that can be charged, and the alleged criminal organization does not meet the legal criteria for racketeering. McCarthy suggests that the case should have been broken down into separate cases to properly assess the roles of the co-defendants.
