Georgia Judge Refuses to Jail Trump Co-Defendant for Social Media Posts in Election Fraud Case

A Georgia judge has declined to send Harrison Floyd, a co-defendant of Donald Trump in an election fraud case, to jail over social media posts and comments targeting witnesses. While Floyd made "technical violations" of his bond agreement, the judge ruled that not every violation warrants revocation. Fulton County prosecutors argued that Floyd's actions were an effort to intimidate co-defendants and witnesses, but the judge disagreed. Floyd, who has pleaded not guilty to three state felonies, had previously spent a week in jail before reaching a bond deal. Prosecutors' bid to jail him was seen by his attorneys as retaliation after he rejected a plea deal offer.
