A grand jury in Georgia believes that Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) committed crimes related to efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
That stunning revelation comes from an official report of grand jury proceedings that was released this morning and flagged by Stephen Fowler of Politico.
However, despite the grand jury recommendation, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis declined to charge Graham.
Mediaite notes that the grand jury report had been under seal.
The report had been under seal for nine months and was ordered released by a Georgia judge. The document includes the grand jury’s recommendations to prosecutors, including who the jury also recommended be indicted but District Attorney Fani Willis, who convened the grand jury in 2021, eventually passed on indicting – including three sitting U.S. Senators.
Though Willis didn’t indict Graham, the U.S. Department of Justice could still do, which is certainly a possibility since Special Counsel Jack Smith has made it clear that no one is off-limits when it comes to being charged with crimes related the 2020 election. After all, Smith has already obtained indictments against former president Donald Trump for his role in the election conspiracy.
