WASHINGTON (Reuters) – A Fulton County court will broadcast the trial on the Internet by Friday in the case of former President Trump accused of intervening in the southern state of Georgia to reverse the 2020 U.S. presidential election defeat. admitted that It is the first time that broadcasting has been permitted in the trials of the four cases in which Mr. Trump was indicted. US media reported.
No date has been set for the trial, and prosecutors are calling for an early start. The broadcast will be run by the county court and available for anyone to watch on YouTube. Television stations were also allowed to film the hearings. Trump has maintained his innocence and has said he will not appear in court to confirm or deny the indictment, which was scheduled for June 6.
A total of 19 people, including Mr. Trump and his aides, were indicted on August 14 as a “criminal gang,” and Mr. Trump turned himself in to a detention facility in Atlanta, Georgia, on the 24th.
Unlike the proceedings in the other three cases, which are handled by courts in the federal district court in Washington and eastern New York state, the Georgia state is highly transparent, with Trump’s “mugshot” (a photograph of his face, such as when he was arrested) being made public.
