(CNN) Former President Donald Trump is an unindicted co-conspirator in the Michigan attorney generals probe into the attempts to overturn the 2020 election in that state, an investigator testified Wednesday.
The investigator also said the list of unindicted co-conspirators includes ex-Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani, former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, and former Trump campaign lawyer Jenna Ellis.
The revelations came at a pretrial hearing in Lansing for some of Michigans fake electors, who have been charged by Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel in her investigation into the attempts to subvert the 2020 election.
Nessel, a Democrat, charged 16 fake Republican electors from Michigan last summer. CNN reported in December that the investigation was ongoing and appeared to be expanding. One of those charged already agreed to cooperate with Nessels prosecutors, in exchange for the charges being dropped. The remaining 15 defendants have all pleaded not guilty.

She felt that there was a conspiracy that involved numerous states and it would be better for DOJ to take the prosecution. Nessel waited a year and when Merrick Garland did nothing she did the prosecution herself. If you want to know why Trump wasn't indicted in the fake elector scheme it would be better to ask Merrick Garland.
