The indictment, which includes felony counts of conspiracy, fraud and forgery, also describes Trump as an unindicted co-conspirator.
Defendants and unindicted coconspirators schemed to prevent the lawful transfer of the presidency to keep Unindicted Coconspirator 1 in office against the will of Arizonas voters, the 58-page indictment reads.
The names of seven of the defendants, including Meadows, Giuliani and Roman, are redacted, but the document makes clear who they are by describing their roles. Ken Chesebro, an attorney who helped devise Trumps post-election strategy, is described as unindicted coconspirator 4.
The only defendants whose names are visible in the version of the indictment released by the Arizona attorney generals office Wednesday evening are the 11 Republicans who falsely posed as the states presidential electors despite Joe Bidens narrow victory there. Among them: former Arizona GOP Chair Kelli Ward, state senators Jake Hoffman and Anthony Kern, and Arizonas RNC committeeman Tyler Bowyer.
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes, a Democrat, has been helming the aggressive investigation. Though she initially appeared to be focused primarily on the false electors, in recent months she issued a wave of subpoenas to figures in Trumps national orbit.
This will be fun to watch

(81,462 posts)Its been a WAY long time since people were pouring money all over Giuliani Partners. I think his haul back then was triple-digit millions, on the heels of being dubbed Americas Mayor for his leadership after 9/11. Whered all that money go???
