"Expanding Georgia Trump Probe Targets Racketeering and Out-of-State Activities"

The legal investigations against former President Donald Trump for his alleged attempt to interfere with the 2020 election results in Georgia are reportedly expanding to cover some actions in Washington, DC and other states under Georgia’s broad Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) statute. The Georgia investigation is just one of three ongoing probes into Trump’s potentially criminal activities during his presidency. It focuses on the former president’s efforts to have Georgia officials dispute or alter the results of the state’s 2020 presidential vote, which narrowly favored President Joe Biden.
