Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis told a judge Tuesday she opposes releasing to the public a report by a special purpose grand jury that spent months investigating former President Donald Trump's behavior after the 2020 election.

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis watches as potential jurors are excused during proceedings to seat a special purpose grand jury in Georgia on May 2, 2022, to look into the actions of former President Donald Trump and his supporters who tried to overturn the results of the 2020 election.Attorneys for a broad coalition of media organizations, including CBS News, submitted a filing Monday arguing that"the public interest in the report is extraordinary.

Prosecutor Donald Wakefield said the office isn't necessarily opposed to releasing it in the future, but wants it kept secret until charging decisions are made. "We believe the report should be released now, and in its entirety, and that approach is consistent with the way the American judicial system operates," said Tom Clyde, an attorney for the media coalition.

Attorneys for Trump said in an emailed statement Monday that"to date, we have never been a part of this process."

it's ashamed for the rotten court system everywhere implanted by the global Mobs, who make private all their secret things, and release everything of Trump to the public. But as always, the truth comes out that Trump's innocent !

Cover up! She has nothing and won't make it public 🤣😂

I'm not shocked.. she would be disbarred if it seems the light of day

The Trump Obsession continues!

Nothing to see… they just pretend to have something… next they will start selling pillows… Buy 10 pillows and get a free disclosure document… collect all 100 documents to learn the truth.

Another Communist

Why does she not want citizens to know the facts?

You read it hear first. Trump's impending indictment will be the Show of the Century. '...Trump would then appear before the court at the arraignment in the jumpsuit that is whatever color is in now vogue in the Fulton County Jail.'

The DA & Judge kick the can down the road, most likely cuz' they doesn't want to be the 1st to indict a former prez. Somebody needs to grow a pair of these & indict TFG et al, cuz' that'll open the floodgates & we can finally get some accountability for 'The Big Lie' & Jan. 6th!

👎she should be put in Jail.

More lies by the Dems, finally catching up to them…

Too bad. Stalling

That’s kinda misleading. She doesn’t want it released prior to an announcement of whether or not she’s issuing indictments. And that determination is coming “very soon.” So the report could be out “very soon” + 1 second.

I guess it’s not the smoking gun they thought it would be.

Don't hold back now!!!! Let's see it... 😈
