Georgia's Fulton County Sheriff’s Office announced it will soon close the roads near the county courthouse ahead of an anticipated fourth indictment against former President Donald Trump.
Atlanta's Pryor Street SW between MLK Jr. Drive and Mitchell Street will be closed beginning Monday at 5 a.m. because it is the nearby road of the Fulton County Courthouse, where District Attorney Fani Willis is expected to file an indictment against Trump, as recommended by the grand jury. The grand jury has not yet delivered a decision.The road closure will last until Aug. 18 and will include increased security.
It is speculated that Trump could be charged by the grand jury in regard to alleged interference in the 2020 election in the state. Then-President Donald Trump urged Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to “find” the election results in Fulton County, which was, as Trump claimed,"the motherlode." Trump is facing various indictments, from mishandling classified documents to subverting the 2020 presidential election. He pleaded not guilty to his most recent charges Thursday.Should an indictment come from Willis, it would be the former president's fourth.
Willis has served as district attorney since 2020. While she had a Democratic opponent in the primary election, she ultimately ran unopposed in the general election. She is up for reelection next year.
