"Online Threats and Trump Indictment: Georgia Police Investigate Juror Safety"

Police in Georgia are investigating online threats made against members of a grand jury that indicted Donald Trump and 18 of his allies in a criminal case related to the 2020 presidential election. Personal information of the jurors, including their names, addresses, and phone numbers, has been shared on social media platforms as part of a harassment campaign. Far-right supporters of Trump have targeted the jurors, with some threatening violence and promoting the killing of jurors. The lack of political leadership in denouncing these threats is concerning, and threats against election workers and public officials have been on the rise in recent years. Trump himself could face court sanctions for his ongoing attacks against the prosecutors and judges overseeing his cases.
