A judge has announced that Donald Trump’s trail for alleged election fraud in Georgia in the 2020 US Presidential elections, will be livestreamed. According to a BBC report, Judge Scott McAfee has ruled that all the hearings will be available live on Fulton County Court’s YouTube channel.
In the Georgia election fraud case, Trump has been indicted along with 18 other people for conspiring to overturn the election results. The former US President has pleaded not guilty to the 13 charges of his indictment. He has waived the right to appear in court at his arraignment.
Prosecutors believe that one important evidence in the case is a taped phone call that Trump made to Georgia’s then-secretary of state to recalculate the vote tally.
Legal problems for Trump have mounted as he faces a total of four criminal trails against him in the US. The other three legal cases against Trump are: 1) attempt to defraud the US, as well as conspiracy to obstruct and actual obstruction of an official proceeding( in light of the attack on US Capitol on January 6, 2021), 2) a probe for possession of classified documents and 3) hush money payments case.
