CBSN
Former President Donald Trump and 18 associates stand accused of racketeering and other charges related to alleged schemes to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election, according to the indictment filed Monday night by Fulton County, Georgia, District Attorney Fani Willis.
It's the fourth felony indictment for Trump as he pursues his third bid for the White House.
The 98-page indictment describes an alleged criminal enterprise that began with Trump's loss in the 2020 presidential election. The defendants, according to the indictment, "refused to accept that Trump lost, and they knowingly and willfully joined a conspiracy to unlawfully change the outcome of the election in favor of Trump."
